  • p-type transparent electronics

    Creator:
    Valencia, Melinda Marie
    Abstract:
    The objective of this thesis is to contribute to the development of p-type materials for transparent electronics applications. Thin films of ®-BaCu2S2, a p-type semi-transparent semiconductor, are fabricated and characterized. ®-BaCu2S2 has a transmittance of 60% to 80 % in the visible portion of the electromagnetic spectrum. The mobility, conductivity,...

  • Printed Nanocomposite Devices and Flexible Electronics for Humidity Sensing

    Creator:
    Ajithkumar, Amritha
    Abstract:
    The thesis focuses on the development of a novel printed resistive humidity sensor and integrated flexible electronics for an RFID-enabled humidity sensing platform. We explored a hybrid nanocomposite material for humidity sensing consisting of carbon nanomaterials, conductive polymer and cellulose polymer that undergoes resistance change in response to humidity change....

  • Dynamic biasing for ring amplification

    Creator:
    Farahbakhshian, Farshad
    Abstract:
    New amplifier architectures are presented using non-traditional methods of biasing. Time-based dynamic biasing and signal-based dynamic biasing are discussed in the context of new architectures. This includes a new form of ring amplification with a dynamic deadzone, allowing for a structure whose coarse path does not consume static power.

  • An automated web crawl methodology to analyze the online privacy landscape

    Creator:
    Sarkar, Chandan
    Abstract:
    Protecting end-users privacy and building trust are the two most important factors needed to support the growth of ecommerce. The increased dependence on the Internet for a wide variety of daily transactions causes a corresponding loss in privacy for many users, as virtually all websites collect data from users directly...

  • Broadband modeling of on-chip transformers for silicon RFICs

    Creator:
    Rapolu, Kavitha
    Abstract:
    Magnetically coupled passive transformers are increasingly integrated on-chip for various analog and radio frequency (RF) applications including direct current (DC) isolation, impedance transformation/matching, and conversion between single-ended and differential signals. A primary motivation for the on-chip integration of transformers is the overall size reduction and reduced cost. However, the performance...

  • Multi-Objective Power Electronics System Design and Optimization, A Machine Learning Approach

    Creator:
    Jackson, Derek
    Abstract:
    The integration of power electronics within the energy and transportation sectors enlists a demand for the rapid development of energy-efficient electrical systems. While model-based design and physics-based simulations are effective ways to handle the multi-disciplinary and multi-objective (MO) design of these complex systems, design exploration remains a time-consuming procedure. A...

  • Power Semiconductor Loss Modeling & Heat Sink Design for Submerged Power Electronics Within Hydrokinetic Applications

    Creator:
    Kilgore, Trenton L.
    Abstract:
    Hydrokinetic turbines are an emerging form of renewable energy generation. Although similar to wind turbines, hydrokinetic systems incur extra costs and face constraints in available footprint. SiC power semiconductors within the required power electronics improve the performance. With higher switching afforded by SiC devices, the footprint of passive components for...

  • A domain-specific embedded language for probabilistic programming

    Creator:
    Kollmansberger, Steven
    Abstract:
    Functional programming is concerned with referential transparency, that is, given a certain function and its parameter, that the result will always be the same. However, it seems that this is violated in applications involving uncertainty, such as rolling a dice. This thesis defines the background of probabilistic programming and domain-specific...

    Creator:
    Moranvil, William
    Abstract:
    High data rate transmission has become an important challenge in today digital communication systems. One of the most difficult problems faced by engineers is to transmit data at sufficiently high rates through fading channels. This is the main motivation for the research presented herein. In this thesis, we investigate a...
