  • Substrate noise coupling analysis in 0.18um silicon germanium (SiGe) and silicon on insulator (SOI) processes

    Creator:
    Pham, Hui En
    Abstract:
    Analysis of substrate noise coupling has been performed for a 0.18¹m lightly doped silicon germanium BiCMOS process. Techniques to minimize noise coupling in the chip and board design are presented, as well as methods for accurate modeling for substrate noise coupling simulations. Measurements from a test chip were taken to...

  • An adaptive pitch axis autopilot design for an unstable nonminimum phase pitch axis model

    Creator:
    Chen, Long Ren
    Abstract:
    An adaptive pitch axis autopilot design procedure is presented. The design procedure is applicable to both stable and unstable pitch axis models and to those having nonminimum phase. The design approach assumes the adaptive autopilot is activated after achieving level flight. It is shown a rate-feedback compensator can be designed...

  • Radiation effects in III-V compound semiconductor heterostructure devices

    Creator:
    Li, ChyiShiun
    Abstract:
    The radiation effects in III-V heterojunction devices are investigated in this thesis. Two types of heterojunction devices studied are InGaP/GaAs single heterojunction bipolar transistors (SHBTs) and GaN-based heterojunction light emitting diodes (LEDs). InGaP/GaAS HBTs are investigated for high energy (67 and 105 MeV) proton irradiation effects while GaN heterojunction LEDs...

  • 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...

  • Data-Driven Approaches For Decoding Volitional Movement Intent From Bioelectrical Signals

    Creator:
    Cunha Dantas, Henrique
    Abstract:
    There are nearly two million limb amputees living in the United States of America. Loss of limbs results in profound changes in one's life. However, the underlying neural circuitry and much of the ability to sense and control movements of their missing limb is retained even after limb loss. This...

  • Ferroelectric thin film development

    Creator:
    Harman, Taran V.
    Abstract:
    The long-term goal of the research project initiated with this thesis is the development of lead-free, fully-transparent ferroelectric devices, such as ferroelectric capacitors or ferroelectric-gate field-effect transistors. Ferroelectric materials exhibit spontaneous polarization with the application of an external electric field, which is persistent upon removal of the applied field, and...

  • Lamb Wave Mode Decomposition and Its Applications in Structural Health Monitoring

    Creator:
    Zoubi, Ahmad Bassil
    Abstract:
    Structural health monitoring (SHM) systems perform automated non-destructive damage detection and characterization for a variety of large structures including civil structures such as bridges and aerospace structures such as aircrafts and space vehicles. The goals of SHM include preventing catastrophic structural failures, increasing reliability, reducing maintenance costs, and increasing the...

  • An approach for selecting a language for computer hardware description and simulation

    Creator:
    Milden, Mark R.
    Abstract:
    This paper corrects an apparent deficiency in the published information concerning Hardware Description Languages (HDLs) by introducing and discussing an approach for selecting an HDL for use in a design project. Although three classes of HDLs are discussed in this paper, High-Level Languages (HLLs), General Purpose Simulation Languages (GPSLs) and...

  • PRONTO programs for product term reduction

    Creator:
    Abweh, Nael Nabih
    Abstract:
    PRONTO is a direct, one-pass heuristic method designed to shrink the size of reducible programmable logic arrays. Several people have contributed to the design, and translation to a computer program, of this attempt to produce a good solution quickly. This thesis discusses efforts to improve PRONTO's implementation in order to...
