  • Hybrid electric vehicle converter harmonics

    Creator:
    Bowers, Waylon T.
    Abstract:
    Hybrid electric vehicles (HEV’s) are a very important part of today’s transportation system as they are bridging the gap between fully electric vehicles and conventional internal combustion vehicles (ICV’s). They have much higher efficiencies and lower emissions than ICV’s, while still having the ability to travel long range and refuel...

  • Optofluidic Sensing from Inkjet-Printed Droplets on Diatom Biosilica

    Creator:
    Xi, Yuting
    Abstract:
    We explored an optofluidic sensing mechanism from inkjet-printed droplets on diatom biosilica using surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS). Our study revealed a new biosensing strategy that combines the microscopic fluidic flow induced by the droplet evaporation and the photonic crystal effects of diatom frustules, which can provide an ultra-sensitive, cost-effective biosensing...

  • Design, Fabrication and Characterization of Narrowband Aluminum Plasmonic Grating Filter Array for Spectroscopy in Visible Light Range

    Creator:
    Shashi, Farzana Hasan
    Abstract:
    Metal grating based plasmonic filters are widely researched for their unique properties of field enhancement and localization of light beyond diffraction limit. However, the plasmonic grating filters reported in literature mostly have broadband outputs making them unsuitable for spectroscopy. In this project, we have designed, fabricated, and characterized an array...

  • 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...

  • Silicon Microring Resonator Driven by High-Mobility Conductive Oxide Capacitor

    Creator:
    Hsu, Wei-Che
    Abstract:
    Silicon photonics has rapidly become one of the most promising photonic integration platforms. Especially, microring resonator (MRR) plays a pivotal role in silicon photonics and has been widely used for electro-optic (E-O) modulators and wavelength filters due to its small footprint, low energy consumption, and high quality factor (Q-factor). Recently,...

  • Testing and modeling of the single-phase Written-Pole Motor

    Creator:
    Chis, Lucian
    Abstract:
    A relatively new development in the electric machines field has been the written-pole technology, of which the latest product is the large single-phase electric motor, the single phase Written-Pole Motor (WPM). The WPM is a synchronous, permanent-magnet single-phase motor having a weak rotor cage for start-up which in addition exhibits...

  • Use of multiple loop model for brushless doubly fed machine rotor design

    Creator:
    Kemp, Alson R.
    Abstract:
    The Brushless Doubly Fed Machine (BDFM) is receiving attention as a candidate for use in adjustable speed drives (ASDs) and variable speed generators (VSGs). With a large percentage of a drive or generator system's cost due to power electronics content, considerable research has been conducted to find drives in which...

  • 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...
