All-fiber molecular frequency reference at 2 μm based on a versatile laser modulation sideband locking and a hollow-core fiber gas cell
Sensing of atmospheric trace gases is crucial for climate monitoring and to predict global climate changes. The required global coverage and spatial resolution have driven the studies of space-borne differential absorption lidar (DIAL) instruments to remot ...
IEEE2017Frequency fluctuations in silicon nanoresonators
Luis Guillermo Villanueva Torrijo, Eric Sage, Thomas Alava
Frequency stability is key to the performance of nanoresonators. This stability is thought to reach a limit with the resonator's ability to resolve thermally induced vibrations. Although measurements and predictions of resonator stability usually disregard ...

Internet of Things (IoT), which is one of the main talking points in the electronics industry today, consists of a number of highly miniaturized sensors and actuators which sense the physical environment around us and communicate that information to a cent ...
EPFL2016Reducing Energy Dissipation in ULP Systems: PLL-Free FBAR-Based Fast Startup Transmitters
Christian Enz, David Ruffieux, Raghavasimhan Thirunarayanan
The energy dissipated by conventional phase-locked-loop-based transmitters (TXs) during the long startup phase is a major bottleneck that reduces the energy autonomy of duty-cycled ultra-low-power systems. In order to tackle this problem, this paper presen ...
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers2015A 2.4-GHz MEMS-Based PLL-Free Multi-Channel Receiver With Channel Filtering at RF
Christian Enz, Aravind Prasad Heragu Singaiyengar
A Bulk Acoustic Wave (BAW) resonator based 2.4-GHz low power receiver is presented in this work. The intrinsic high quality factor ( Q) of the BAW resonator (around 400 at 2.4-GHz) is exploited to provide channel selection at RF and in the frequency synthe ...
