  • Modeling and development of p-type thin-film transistors

    Creator:
    Spiegelberg, Matthew Craig
    Abstract:
    The primary focus of this thesis involves modeling and development of p-type thin-film transistors (p-TFTs), moving towards the realization of a filly transparent thin-film transistor (TTFT). The modeling portion of this thesis emphasizes the development of physics-based TFT models, specifically focusing on the elucidation of non-ideal current-voltage characteristic behavior. A...

  • Drain current transient characterization of P-channel GaAs MESFET

    Creator:
    Peng, Lan L.
    Abstract:
    GaAs MESFETs are widely used in high speed integrated circuits (ICs) and microwave circuits. Due to the materials and processing methods used in GaAs MESFET fabrication, deep level traps in the substrate materials have a strong influence on device performance. In this work we used the drain current transient characterization...

  • Amorphous metal thin films as a platform for solution processing

    Creator:
    Landau, Nicholas P.
    Abstract:
    The research presented herein represents an effort to combine the ultra-smooth surface of an amorphous metal thin film (AMTF) with a solution-processed dielectric synthesized via prompt inorganic condensation (PIC). Analysis of dielectric film quality is carried out via electrical measurements of metal-insulator-metal (MIM) diodes. Anneals at 500 and 700 °C...

  • Scaled modeling and simulation of ocean wave linear generator buoy systems

    Creator:
    Gore, Ganesh P.
    Abstract:
    Accurate scaled modeling and simulation are critical to advancing ocean wave linear generator buoys. A 100th scaled model of ocean wave generator buoy systems is analyzed by solving the Navier-Stokes equations. These equations are numerically solved using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) by implementing the front capturing method. In this thesis,...

  • Implementation and performance analysis of a scalable routing protocol

    Creator:
    Venkatesan, Rudhrakumar
    Abstract:
    Ad Hoc networks are multi-hop wireless networks consisting of mobile hosts. They do not have any pre-existing network infrastructure and are characterized by constantly changing topology, limited battery power and bandwidth. Typical applications of such networks are battlefield networks, medical relief during natural calamities or disasters, conference room networking, and...

  • A high-swing CMOS operational amplifier topology

    Creator:
    Yang, John Jian
    Abstract:
    A circuit topology for high-swing, high-linearity CMOS operational amplifiers has been developed. The technique uses parallel-connected p- and n-channel input pairs to realize an input common-mode voltage range nearly equal to the total power supply voltage. High linearity is achieved by summing the DC bias and AC small-signal currents so...

  • A chopper-stablized CMOS operational amplifier

    Creator:
    Ann, Seung-Han
    Abstract:
    The chopper-stabilized operational amplifier has good low frequency noise properties. Unfortunately a simple technique for simulation of the chopper-stabilized operational amplifier has not been available. This thesis describes the implementation of a differential amplifier using chopper stabilization and its circuit modeling for the SPICE simulation. This circuit has been designed...

  • Current-feedthrough cancellation technique for current-mode T/H circuits

    Creator:
    Young, David Y. W.
    Abstract:
    In this paper, an analysis of the clock-feedthrough effects in switched-current (SI)' circuits will be presented. The clock-feedthrough effects caused by the non-ideal characteristic of MOS switches when they are turned off limit the accuracy of the analog track-and-hold (T/H) circuits. A model to analyze and characterize this effect is...

  • High accuracy CMOS switched-current ladder filters

    Creator:
    Hoei, Jung-sheng
    Abstract:
    Clock-feedthrough effects, channel-length modulation and device mismatch are the main causes of the inaccuracy of Switched-Current (SI) circuits. In this paper, these non-ideal effects are analyzed. A high-performance current mirror, namely regulated cascode current mirror, which eliminates drain voltage variation problem is introduced. By using this current mirror as a...

  • Adaptive model reference control of highly maneuverable high performance aircraft

    Creator:
    Collins, David C. (David Charles), 1969-
    Abstract:
    This thesis presents an adaptive model reference controller for a highly maneuverable high performance aircraft, in particular, a modified F18. An adaptive controller is developed to maneuver an aircraft at a high angle of attack. Thus, the aircraft is required to fly over a highly nonlinear flight regime. The adaptive...
