  • Sensor Interface Circuit Design towards CMOS Scaling

    Creator:
    Liu, Jialin
    Abstract:
    Sensor system plays an important role in connecting everything including human body to the electrical information systems that we have built and that we are going to build, to make the world more intelligent and efficient. One of the key propulsive forces behind these emerging techniques is CMOS scaling that...

  • Plasmonic Nano-Antenna and Modulator for On-Chip Optical Interconnects

    Creator:
    Gao, Qian
    Abstract:
    With the rapid growth of worldwide internet traffic in data centers and clouds, silicon photonics has been utilized to provide enormous data bandwidth and outstanding energy efficiency over electronics. Computing servers and storage servers that are connected by communication links are relying more on optical rather than electrical means mainly...

  • IC-Antenna Co-Integration for Efficient and Scalable Millimeter-Wave Antenna Interfaces

    Creator:
    Liu,Yao
    Abstract:
    Millimeter-wave (mm-wave) technology promises high speed, high system capacity and low latency interconnects with reduced cost. Applications like high data-rate wireless links, next generation automotive sensors and security body scanners highly depend on mm-wave technology innovations. As operating frequency moves to higher mm-wave bands, shrinking antenna dimensions enable co-integration of...

  • Design and Analysis of Free-space Optical Communications Systems for Next Generation Short-range Wireless Networks

    Creator:
    Liverman, Spencer
    Abstract:
    This dissertation focuses on indoor free-space optical communications systems for use in short range wireless networks. We propose that current radio frequency wireless links be augmented or replaced with optical frequency links due to overcrowding in the radio frequency spectrum. Optical frequencies contain hundreds of terahertz of unregulated bandwidth and...
