  • A channelized digital receiver design for UWB sytems in a multipath indoor environment

    Creator:
    Chang, Yuhao
    Abstract:
    This thesis presents a channelized digital receiver design for UWB sytems in a multipath indoor environment. The UWB technology has been used for commercial and military purposes due to a number of advantages such as low-power consumption, noise-like and carrier free. The energy of UWB signal is spread over a...

  • 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...

  • Surface-Enhanced Infrared Absorption Gas Sensing Incorporating Advanced Plasmonic Nanostructures and Nano-Composite Materials

    Creator:
    Chong, Xinyuan
    Abstract:
    This dissertation focuses on extending the application scope of surface enhanced infrared absorption spectroscopy to gas sensing. The method we propose is incorporating plasmonic nanostructures with nano-composite material, metalorganic framework, which can selectively preconcentrate certain gas molecules into the nanopores. The preconcentrating property is first demonstrated by applying metal-organic framework...

  • Via-only microwave/millimeter wave bandpass filters for LTCC applications

    Creator:
    Bhargava, Gaurav
    Abstract:
    With an increasing number of wireless applications at microwave frequencies, the frequency spectrum is becoming quite crowded. Due to this congestion, the current state of technology is leading towards upper microwave and millimeter wave spectra as they also offer other distinct advantages such as larger bandwidth and smaller component footprint....

  • Radiation effects in III-V heterojunction bipolar transistors

    Creator:
    Vuppala, Soujanya
    Abstract:
    Electron and neutron irradiation effects in InGaP/GaAs single heterojunction bipolar transistors are investigated in this thesis. Devices with different emitter sizes and grown by two different growth techniques were examined. Based on the physics of heterojunction bipolar transistors and concepts of radiation damage mechanisms, the irradiation effects were analyzed. The...

  • A motor-generator and supercapacitor based system for microgrid frequency stabilization

    Creator:
    Crispo, Richard F.
    Abstract:
    This research introduces an energy storage system to deliver microgrid frequency response. A doubly-fed induction generator (DFIG) and a squirrel cage induction machine (SCIM) are coupled together as a motor/generator set to deliver an immediate inertial response to a change of frequency, and an inverter and supercapacitors deliver short term...

  • Design of Compact Passive Components and Circuits for RF and Millimeter-Wave Integrated Circuit in Silicon

    Creator:
    Dong, Xuanyi
    Abstract:
    Emerging fifth generation (5G) and beyond 5G communication networks are stimulating the design of radio-frequency (RF) and millimeter-wave (mmWave) integrated circuits for wireless transceivers systems. While co-integration of active circuits and diverse passive components becomes feasible at these high operating frequencies, circuit design is faced with significant challenges due to...

  • Energy Harvesting and Power Management Integrated Circuits for Self-Sustaining Wearables

    Creator:
    Bose, Soumya
    Abstract:
    Harvesting energy from ambient sources can provide power autonomy to energy efficient electronics and sensors. The last decade has seen a multitude of ways to scavenge energy from various sources like solar, thermal, electromagnetic, electrostatic, piezo-electric and many more. Thermal energy from human body heat is ubiquitous and can be...

  • Investigation of Infrared Absorption of Carbon Dioxide in Metal–Organic Framework Material

    Creator:
    Li, Shiwen
    Abstract:
    Due to the advantages of the high surface area and high porosity, Metal-Organic Framework (MOF) materials are widely used in gas storage. As a typical MOF material, Zeolitic Imidazolate Framework-8 (Zif-8) has high selectivity and adsorption capability of carbon dioxide (CO2). In this thesis, we investigated the infrared absorption of...
