  • New chemistry for electrochemical energy storage applications

    Creator:
    Wang, Xingfeng
    Abstract:
    Electrochemical capacitors and batteries are two major electrochemical energy storage technologies, which have been investigated extensively to meet the rapidly-growing demand for higher energy, higher power, lower cost and enhanced safety in the past few decades. With the charge storage mechanism of electrostatic charge adsorption desorption via electrical double layers,...

  • Time-based noise-shaping techniques for time-to-digital and analog-to-digital converters

    Creator:
    Young, Brian LeRoy
    Abstract:
    In this dissertation, time-based signal processing techniques and their applications in oversampling and noise-shaping data converters are examined. These techniques demonstrate the ability to shift the burden of high performance analog circuits from the compressed voltage-domain to the augmented time-domain. First, the potential of high order noise-shaping and phase-domain feedback...

  • A methodology to enable wind farm automatic generation control

    Creator:
    Han, Hai-Yue
    Abstract:
    Over the last decade the increase in penetration of wind power and its variable nature has begun to add considerable stress to and threatened the stability of the nation's grid. In order to continue growth wind farms will need to have the ability to participate in the same grid frequency...

  • Power-efficient two-step pipelined analog-to-digital conversion

    Creator:
    Lee, Ho-Young
    Abstract:
    Hand-held devices are among the most successful consumer electronics in modern society. Behind these successful devices, lies a key analog design technique that involves high-performance analog-to-digital conversion combined with very low power consumption. This dissertation presents two different approaches to achieving high power efficiency from a two-step pipelined architecture, which...

  • Architectural compensation techniques for analog inaccuracies in delta-sigma analog-to-digital converters, Architectural compensation techniques for analog inaccuracies in ΔΣanalog-to-digital converters

    Creator:
    Maghari, Nima
    Abstract:
    Delta-sigma analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) are suitable for many applications due to several advantages such as relaxed anti-aliasing filter, high signal-to noise and distortion ratio (SNDR) and most important of all, reduced sensitivity to analog imperfections.This thesis introduces several structures to overcome loop imperfections and stability issues in delta-sigma modulators. First,...

  • Directional 60 GHz communication networks

    Creator:
    Yildirim, Ferhat (Ahmet Ferhat)
    Abstract:
    It is well known that multipath effects cause inter-symbol interference (ISI) for high-speed signaling and ultimately limit the achievable data rate at any frequency band. In this thesis, we study several different methods to tackle this issue and provide solutions for establishing efficient wireless links that can provide several Gbps...

  • Fabrication and geometrical characterization of metal and metal-dielectric composite periodic nanostructures

    Creator:
    Bhowmik, Siddhartha
    Abstract:
    Periodic metal and metal-dielectric composite nanostructures have been of interest from the field of plasmonics and metamaterial fabrication. In order to exploit the behavior of these unique materials in the visible region of the optical spectrum, these structures need to be significantly shorter than the wavelength of response, and hence...

  • Magnetic bead detection with ferromagnetic resonance for use in immuno-biosensor application

    Creator:
    Ghionea, Simon
    Abstract:
    The objective of this thesis is to introduce and demonstrate a novel magnetic bead detector based on inductive detection at the ferromagnetic resonance (FMR) frequency for use in bio-sensing applications. Detection ability is demonstrated through theoretical arguments, numerical computer simulations, and experimental characterization of micro-fabricated detectors. The detector is composed...

  • Galvanostatic control of ion selective electrodes with the solvent polymeric membrane

    Creator:
    Perera, Hasini R.
    Abstract:
    Detection technique that proposed utilizing electrochemically controlled, reversible ion extraction into polymeric membrane in an alternating galvanostatic/ potentiostatic mode was introduced. This method is studied in detail to comprehend the advantages of the novel sensor (pulstrode) compared to the potentiometric ion selective electrode (ISE), studies included possible applications and limitations....

  • Fabrication and application of polymer based microfluidic devices

    Creator:
    Koesdjojo, Myra T.
    Abstract:
    The concept of reducing laboratory operations in scale such that they fit on a microfluidic chip has been met with great enthusiasm. Lab-on-a-chip devices promise to be cost effective to operate due to reduced reagent consumption, have the potential to offer shorter analysis times due to their short path lengths,...
