  • A study of time series interpolation and decimation with signal processing applications

    Creator:
    Kraemer, Thomas Fredrick
    Abstract:
    Decimation and interpolation is shown to be an effective technique for reducing the storage requirements for bandlimited time series. Interpolation and decimation is theoretically developed using z-transform theory and graphically interperted. A sequence of data acquired by sampling a sonar signal is used to demonstrate the effects of decimation. Using...

  • Fabrication and characterization of thin-film electromagnetic coils and heaters for microchannel applications

    Creator:
    Dehuff, Nicole L.
    Abstract:
    The focus of this thesis involves developing general fabrication processes relevant to the manufacture of two new devices for the Microscale technology Energy and Chemical Systems (MECS) program at Oregon State University. The two MECS devices developed, capture dots and transparent thin-film heaters (TTFHs), require unique process development for successful...

  • TIMR : Time Interleaved Multi Rail

    Creator:
    Ruggeri, Thomas L.
    Abstract:
    This work presents a new energy saving technique for modern digital designs. We propose Time Interleaved Multi-Rail (TIMR) - a method for providing two dynamic supply rails to a circuit. This technique uses the first supply rail to mask the transition delay while changing the voltage of the second rail....

  • Fiber Bragg grating-tunable diode laser

    Creator:
    Ericksen, Doug
    Abstract:
    Continuously tunable diode laser sources coupled to single-mode fiber are useful sources for fiber Bragg grating (FBG) strain sensors. This paper describes the development and fabrication of such a device. An introduction is given describing applications of tunable lasers and some of the different methods of creating a tunable diode...

  • Grating-tuned external cavity diode lasers

    Creator:
    Falconer, Beate Stephan
    Abstract:
    Diode lasers have many advantages such as small size, high efficiency and small angular dispersion of the collimated beam. However they also have some problems like lack of frequency stability. They can not be tuned in wavelength. An external cavity can solve these problems and decrease the laser linewidth. To...

  • Low cost, short wavelenght fiber Bragg grating strain sensor systems

    Creator:
    Vaughan, Lira
    Abstract:
    Fiber Bragg grating sensors have been constantly researched for the last ten years and have finally begun to find use in the commercial market. However, one of the major factors limiting their widespread use is their system cost. Their lightweight, flexibility, electromagnetic immunity, and small size make fiber Bragg grating...

  • Deep ultraviolet solid-state laser development

    Creator:
    Dutton, David A. (David Adam)
    Abstract:
    There is a new possibility of generating deep ultraviolet laser radiation from a solid-state source. With recent advances in material development, a new nonlinear optical crystal provides a greater damage threshold than current materials making higher conversion efficiencies possible. This thesis examines the possibility of using this crystal to generate...
