  • Netarts Bay bibliography to 2023 by date

    Creator:
    Gilmont, Susan, Long, Season, Markland, Mary, and Webster, Janet G.
    Abstract:
    Oregon's estuaries are important ecosystems for scientific study. Consequently, knowledge of what research has been conducted helps us identify benchmarks and plan new projects. A comprehensive bibliography of published research, technical reports, local documents, and data sets is one means of recording this knowledge. For these reasons, the Guin Library...

  • Indoor free-space optical communication enhanced by dynamic optical beam control

    Creator:
    Trotter, Cade W.
    Abstract:
    This work expands the field of indoor free-space optical communication by introducing novel techniques in short range optical communication. The increasing need for high bandwidth communication necessitates the transition to optical frequencies with hundreds of terahertz worth of unregulated bandwidth. Optical communication offers an inherent security advantage over traditional communications...

  • Ultra-energy-efficient Silicon Photonic Modulators Driven by Transparent Conductive Oxides

    Creator:
    Li, Erwen
    Abstract:
    Silicon photonics has become the most promising platform for future large-scale optical interconnect and optical computing systems due to its inherent CMOS compatibility, which brings exclusive advantages in bandwidth density, energy efficiency, and cost effectiveness. Parallel optical interconnects based on photonic integrated circuits (PICs) have the capacity to meet the...

  • Design and Analysis of Free-space Optical Communications Systems for Next Generation Short-range Wireless Networks

    Creator:
    Liverman, Spencer
    Abstract:
    This dissertation focuses on indoor free-space optical communications systems for use in short range wireless networks. We propose that current radio frequency wireless links be augmented or replaced with optical frequency links due to overcrowding in the radio frequency spectrum. Optical frequencies contain hundreds of terahertz of unregulated bandwidth and...

  • A 400Mb/s 850nm FSO Link based on CMOS Integrated Receiver for Hybrid WiFi and Optical Femtocells

    Creator:
    Chen, Siyuan
    Abstract:
    The increasing demand for higher data-rates is challenging to satisfy with spectrum-deficient indoor WiFi networks. A novel hybrid WiFi Free-Space Optical (WIFO) system has been proposed to enhance the wireless capacity of indoor WiFi networks. In this thesis, an integrated optical wireless receiver is designed and integrated in 65-nm CMOS...

  • Design and Analysis of an Optical Wireless Receiver for a Hybrid WiFi Free-Space Optical (WiFO) Communication Network

    Creator:
    Borah, Anindita
    Abstract:
    The increasing demand for higher data-rates in spectrum-deficient indoor WiFi networks calls for the adaptation of hybrid systems, consisting of RF and optical wireless channels. The novel hybrid WiFi Free-Space Optical (WIFO) system was introduced to enhance the wireless capacity of indoor WiFi networks. In this thesis, an optical wireless...

  • Surface-Enhanced Infrared Absorption Gas Sensing Incorporating Advanced Plasmonic Nanostructures and Nano-Composite Materials

    Creator:
    Chong, Xinyuan
    Abstract:
    This dissertation focuses on extending the application scope of surface enhanced infrared absorption spectroscopy to gas sensing. The method we propose is incorporating plasmonic nanostructures with nano-composite material, metalorganic framework, which can selectively preconcentrate certain gas molecules into the nanopores. The preconcentrating property is first demonstrated by applying metal-organic framework...

  • Coverage algorithms for WiFO : a hybrid WiFi-FSO femtocell communication system

    Creator:
    Zhang, Yang
    Abstract:
    Coverage algorithms for deployment of WiFO - a hybrid femtocell architecture based on WiFi and Free Space Optical (FSO) technologies are studied to significantly increase wireless throughput of existing WiFi networks. In contrast with existing WiFi networks, WiFO incorporates small cell size, line of sight transmissions, and the Gaussian attenuation...

  • Surface-Normal Modulation of Fano Resonances in Metallic Photonic Crystals for Free-Space Optical Interconnects

    Creator:
    Ren, Fanghui
    Abstract:
    This dissertation focuses on the development of ultra-compact optical devices for free-space modulation. We propose a surface-normal modulator using metallic photonic crystals for free-space optical interconnects. The active control of light intensity is achieved by engineering the Fano resonances in metallic photonic crystals. Both thermo-optic modulation and electro-optic modulation of...
