Hall-effect devices make up by far the largest part of all magnetic sensors on the market today. The main reason is compatibility of Hall devices with modern semiconductor technology. In particular, integrated Hall sensor micro-systems fabricated in low-co ...
This paper presents the hardware and software approach to replacing the current analogue linear feedback system on the TCV Tokamak with a DSP based system to allow for non-linear control. After preliminary combination, over 120 control signals are reduced ...
This article describes some techniques for implementing low- power clock and data recovery (CDR) circuits based on gated- oscillator (GO) topology for short distance applications. Here, the main tradeoffs in design of a high performance and power-efficient ...
In this thesis, a new microfabricated flow cytometer for single cell discrimination based on dielectric spectroscopy is presented. Integrated tools for rapid in-flow cell handling are also demonstrated. Signal amplification and analysis as well as the chip ...
For the last thirty years, electronics, at first built with discrete components, and then as Integrated Circuits (IC), have brought diverse and lasting improvements to our quality of life. Examples might include digital calculators, automotive and airplane ...
A monolithic silicon integrated optical micro-scanner is presented. The device consists of a mirror located on the tip of a thermal bimorph actuator beam. The fabrication process is very simple and compatible with IC fabrication techniques. The device is e ...
Summary form only given. In recent years, broadband fiber interferometers have become very popular as basic instruments used in optical coherence tomography (OCT) for imaging applications in the biomedical field. A major challenge in the further developmen ...
Presently, the cells' electrical activity is measured either by extracellular microelectrode array (MEA) or by microscopic fluorescence imaging methods. The MEA is a non-invasive in vitro technique which allows long-term recording at multicellular level wh ...
Urban land-use planning and management are in constant mutation throughout the world. With sustainability as a goal, the use of participative GIS is becoming more and more in demand. Given the willingness of local authorities to test participatory models a ...
Technological advances of the last decades enabled the development of a set of new medical techniques that differ from traditional open surgery. These techniques, referred to as minimally invasive surgery (MIS), involve complex instruments and imaging devi ...
