  • 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...

  • Design and analysis of planar and multilevel inductors

    Creator:
    Phillips, Michael D. (Michael Donovan)
    Abstract:
    Industry today is pushing personal portable handheld communication de- vices, from cellular telephones to personal navigation systems, and society is embracing the push. The goal is to make compact multi-functional handheld products that can transfer information to those around us through high bandwidth mobile communications. These modules rely heavily on...

  • New configurations for RF/microwave bandstop and lowpass filters

    Creator:
    Peddibhotla, Harish V.
    Abstract:
    This thesis presents new, compact configurations for RF/microwave bandstop and lowpass filters for embedded passive applications. A simple design methodology is presented for designing the folded-transmission line filters on a microstrip platform. Unlike the conventional stub-loaded filter designs, the proposed folded-line filters will have practical dimensions for a wide range...

  • Metallic nanoscale conductors

    Creator:
    Nebergall, Nathan Sky
    Abstract:
    A new, reproducible method of using electromigration to form metallic nano-conductors is developed using gold and a tin-silver alloy. Measurements revealed a quantization of the electrical conductance consistent with the theory of quantum conductance. The theory of quantum conductance is applied to show that a nano-conductor with a cross-section of...

  • 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...

  • Novel control of a permanent magnet linear generator for ocean wave energy applications

    Creator:
    VanderMeulen, Aaron H.
    Abstract:
    Wave energy conversion devices are a rapidly growing interest worldwide for the potential to harness a sustainable and renewable energy source. Due to the oscillatory nature of ocean waves, the power generated from a permanent magnet linear generator (PMLG) for ocean wave energy conversion is pulsed. Focusing on direct drive...

  • Via-only microwave/millimeter wave bandpass filters for LTCC applications

    Creator:
    Bhargava, Gaurav
    Abstract:
    With an increasing number of wireless applications at microwave frequencies, the frequency spectrum is becoming quite crowded. Due to this congestion, the current state of technology is leading towards upper microwave and millimeter wave spectra as they also offer other distinct advantages such as larger bandwidth and smaller component footprint....

  • Towards reliable and survivable ocean wave energy converters

    Creator:
    Brown, Adam C.
    Abstract:
    Ocean wave energy is a new and developing field of renewable energy with great potential. The energy contained in one meter of an average wave off the coast of Newport Oregon could supply dozens of homes with electricity. However, ocean waves are usually quite irregular which leads to large bursts...

  • Wideband discrete-time delta-sigma analog-to-digital converters with shifted loop delays

    Creator:
    Meng, Xin
    Abstract:
    Low-distortion architecture is widely used in wideband discrete-time switched-capacitor delta-sigma ADC design. However, it suffers from the power-hungry active adder and critical timing for quantization and dynamic element matching (DEM). To solve this problem, this dissertation presents a delta-sigma modulator architecture with shifted loop delays. In this project, shifted loop...

    Creator:
    Shilimkar, Vikas S.
    Abstract:
    Variability in circuit performance due to process defects is a major concern in integrated circuit (IC) fabrication. Advanced IC manufacturing processes employ Chemical-Mechanical Polishing (CMP) for planarization of oxide and metal layers. CMP defects result in variations in the oxide and metal topographical profile. To reduce these topographical variations, electrically...
