Deep-submicron CMOS designs have resulted in large leakage energy dissipation in microprocessors. While SRAM cells in on-chip cache memories always contribute to this leakage, there is a large variability in active cell usage both within and across applica ...
In microcrystalline hydrogenated silicon (μc-Si:H), the drift mobility dependencies of holes on electric field and temperature have been measured by using a method of equilibrium charge extraction by linearly increasing voltage. At room temperature the est ...
The longitudinal spatial hole burning (LSHB) in gain-clamped semiconductor optical amplifiers (GCSOA's) is investigated by means of a numerical model, which is based on position-dependent rate equations for the carrier density and the propagation equations ...
Humanoids remain luxurious robots, not easily purchasable or reproducible. The Robota project aims at building a low cost open humanoid platform, for use as educational tool for normal and disabled children. This paper reports on the mechanical design of a ...
Accurate modeling and efficient parameter extraction of a small signal equivalent circuit of MOS transistors for high-frequency operation are presented. The small-signal equivalent circuit is based on the quasi-static approximation which was found to be ad ...
This paper describes a new evolutionary mechanism developed specifically for cellular circuits. Called morphogenetic system, it is inspired by the mechanisms of gene expression and cell differentiation found in living organisms. It will be used as the phyl ...
In this paper we present a method for predicting nonlinear distortion in electronic circuits using the Volterra series. Simple expressions for the distortion in a Common-Emitter stage are determined. Designers may use these expressions to get a quick insig ...
Abstract The problem of controlling nonlinear nonminimum-phase systems is considered, where standard input-output feedback linearization leads to unstable internal dynamics. This problem is handled here by using the observability normal form in conjunction ...
A new cytological tool, based on the micro Coulter particle counter (CPC) principle, aimed at diagnostic applications for cell counting and separation in haematology, oncology or toxicology is described. The device measures the spectral impedance of indivi ...
Temperature and electric field dependencies of mobility and concentration transients of electrons and holes using modified charge extraction by the linearly increasing voltage (CELIV) method in slightly doped n-type, p-type and undoped microcrystalline sil ...
