Previous studies on low frequency flicker noise in bipolar junction transistors (BJT) are reviewed. The original BJT flicker noise sources are mainly attributed to the fluctuation in base surface recombination and the fluctuation in the mobility or diffusivity of free charge carriers. Our experiments were done to verify a newly...
The experimental and theoretical bases of transient electric birefringence (TEB) and its application in a variety of nanomaterials, including Na-montmorillonite, cellulose nanocrystals (CNXL), and CdSe quantum dots (QDs) will be presented. TEB is a phenomenon attributed to the alignment of particles in response to an applied electric field and has...
This thesis presents two new approaches for the broadband, time-domain modeling of lossy transmission lines. Each approach is based on an alternative derivation of delay extraction in order to separate the line's linear phase from its
attenuation and dispersion. Augmentation networks represent the derived attenuation networks as rational function approximations....
