For the past couple of decades the desire to add more complexity to a computer chip, while simultaneously reducing the cost per bit, has been accommodated by down-scaling. This approach has been extremely successful in the past, but like all good things it ...
The progress in the technology of microelectronic devices has led to a strong miniaturization and high performance for circuits and systems, enabling modern applications such as mobile computing and communications. Today, remaining "off-chip" components th ...
Neuroprostheses were developed for a variety of applications using unique microfabrication methods. A technology platform that enables novel microelectrode array designs and microfluidic channels is described. Experiments demonstrating the in vivo utility ...
Micro-electromechanical (MEM) laterally vibrating square resonators and beams, fabricated via a prototyping technology combining FIB-micromachined gaps with conventional UV lithography in 1.35 mu m thick SOI are presented. Resonators with both capacitive a ...

This work reports on memory applications of punch-through impact ionization single-transistor latch (PIMOS), showing abrupt current switching (3-10mV/dec.) as well as hysteresis in both ID(VDS) and ID(VGS). A capacitor-less 1PIMOS - 1 MOSFET DRAM memory is ...
Wireless communications are showing an explosive growth in emerging consumer and military applications of radiofrequency (RF), microwave, and millimeter-wave circuits and systems. Applications include wireless personal connectivity (Bluetooth), wireless lo ...
Thin Film Bulk Acoustic Wave Resonators (TFBARs) had been developed a decade ago and since then were implemented extensively in mobile communications devices. The "heart" of a TFBAR consists of a piezoelectric film that operates as an acousto-electric tran ...
Wireless communication systems and handset devices are showing a rapid growth in consumer and military applications. Applications using wireless communication standards such as personal connectivity devices (Bluetooth), mobile systems (GSM, UMTS, WCDMA) an ...
Modern communication devices demand challenging specifications in terms of miniaturization, performance, power consumption and cost. Every new generation of radio frequency integrated circuits (RF-ICs) offer better functionality at reduced size, power cons ...
Scaling of semiconductor devices has pushed CMOS devices close to fundamental limits. The remarkable success story of Moore's law during the last 40 years, predicting the evolution of electronic device performances related to miniaturization, has always be ...
