  • Development of oxide semiconductors : materials, devices, and integration

    Creator:
    Chiang, Hai Q.
    Abstract:
    The aim of this dissertation is to develop oxide semiconductors by radio-frequency sputtering for thin-film transistor (TFT) applications. A variety of oxide semiconductors are used as the TFT channel layer, including indium gallium oxide (IGO), zinc tin oxide (ZTO), and indium gallium zinc oxide (IGZO). The variety of materials used...

  • Inorganic thin-film solar cells

    Creator:
    Spies, Jack Alexander
    Abstract:
    The primary objective of this thesis is to explore new absorber and p-type window layer materials for thin-film solar cell applications. A new thin-film electron beam deposition system has been installed, is now operational, and has been used to deposit several types of solar cell absorber layers. Material investigations include...

  • 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...

  • Volume analysis and visualization

    Creator:
    Khare, Ankit
    Abstract:
    3D datasets acquire great importance in the context of medical imaging. In this thesis we survey and enhance solutions to problems inherently associated with 3D datasets-processing time,noise and visualization. Efforts include development of a tool kit to provide a multi-threaded processing platform to cut processing time, produce real time visualization...

  • Node and topology management for content distribution in source constraint networks

    Creator:
    Kolazhi, Krishnan
    Abstract:
    As broadband Internet becomes widely available, Peer-to-Peer (P2P) applications over the Internet are becoming increasingly popular. Such an example is a video multicast application in which, one source streams a video to a large number of destination nodes through an overlay multicast tree consisting of peers. These overlay multicast-based applications,...

  • Efficient content distribution on source constraint networks: peer communication

    Creator:
    Kamath, Rohit Vinodanand
    Abstract:
    Popular applications such as P2P file sharing, multiplayer gaming, videoconferencing, etc. rely on the efficiency of content distribution from a single source to multiple receivers. Most users of these applications are on the widely prevalent source constraint networks such as the Digital Subscriber Line (DSL) and wireless networks. Overlay multicast...

  • Protein secondary structure prediction using conditional random fields and profiles

    Creator:
    Shen, Rongkun
    Abstract:
    Protein secondary structure prediction plays a pivotal role in predicting protein folding in three-dimensions. Its task is to assign each residue one of the three secondary structure classes helix, strand, or random coil. This is an instance of the problem of sequential supervised learning in machine learning. This thesis describes...

  • A dual-path 2-0 MASH ADC with dual digital error correction

    Creator:
    Zhang, Zhenyong
    Abstract:
    This dissertation presents a dual-path 2-0 MASH (Multi-stAge-noise -SHaping) ADC with two verified digital corrections of DAC mismatch error and quantization noise leakage. By using these two techniques, the requirements for the analog circuits are greatly relaxed. The dual-path structure generates two outputs, one only composed of conversion errors, the...

  • Growth and characterization of zinc ferrite thin films for high frequency applications

    Creator:
    Hu, Jiqing
    Abstract:
    Ferrites have been used for various high frequency applications as bulk materials. These applications, however, are limited to large dimension devices. In this thesis, thin film ferrites were deposited from a low temperature solution-based deposition process that is suitable for micro-scale high frequency applications. The low temperature nature of this...

  • CAM : a new Circuit Augmentation Method for modeling interconnects and passive components

    Creator:
    Kolstad, Joel W.
    Abstract:
    Contemporary circuit design involves significant computer-based simulation, calling for a balance between circuit model accuracy and simulation run time. Traditionally, circuit modelers concentrated on producing either (1) physically-based models, where each element in the model correlates to a physically meaningful aspect of the device being modeled or (2) mathematically-based "macromodels,"...
