The concept, analysis, and design of series switches for graphene-strip plasmonic waveguides at near infrared frequencies are presented. Switching is achieved by using graphene's field effect to selectively enable or forbid propagation on a section of the ...
RF microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) capacitive switches for two different dielectrics, aluminum nitride (AlN) and silicon nitride (Si3N4), are presented. The switches have been characterized and compared in terms of DC and RF performance (5-40 GHz). S ...
In the last forty years the semiconductor industry focused on the downscaling process of the CMOS (Complementary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor) technology, trying to follow as much as possible the empirical Moore's Law. In the last five years this trend has be ...
The self-switching principle is a synthesis of synchronous type switching and switch inner protection mechanisms. Both switch ON and switch OFF are performed on the base of current and voltage measurement across the switch. Applied to an active bidirection ...
Nowadays, the scarcity of cheap energy sources requires a particular effort in optimizing the performance of all conversions. The electric power vector is particulary expected to grow in importance, in conjunction with the development of renewable energy s ...
The paper presents an influence of leakage effect observed in capacitive analog memories on learning process in hardware implemented Kohonen neural networks with MOS transistors used as switches connected with information holding capacitors. The learning r ...
