This letter describes an analog-assisted digital LDO that cascades a conventional digital LDO structure with a single, large output pMOS biased in subthreshold to enable fast response to output voltage droop. By digitally controlling the gate voltage of th ...
Gallium Nitride (GaN) is one of the most promising materials for high frequency power switching due to its exceptional properties such as large saturation velocity, high carrier mobility, and high breakdown field strength. The high switching frequency of G ...
With the advent of intelligent sensor nodes in everyday life, low power aspects of system design become more and more important. Adaptive body biasing is a promising methodology to achieve dynamic adaptation of the tradeoff between performance and energy b ...
III-V nanowires (NWs) have a great potential for solar energy applications due to their diameter-dependent optical properties, which may enhance absorption of light. In addition, core-shell radial p-i-n structures, in which the direction of light absorptio ...

The semiconductor industry, governed by the Moore's law, has achieved the almost unbelievable feat of exponentially increasing performance while lowering the costs for years. The main enabler for this achievement has been the scaling of the CMOS transistor ...
In this study, design considerations for ultra low voltage (ULV) standard-cell based memories (SCM) are presented. Trade-offs for area cost, leakage power, access time, and access energy are discussed and realized using different read logic styles, latch a ...

One of the main advantages of Ion-Sensitive Field-Effect Transistor (ISFET) technology is the capability to exploit technological advancements initially developed for conventional FETs for logic applications, such as the employ of high-k dielectrics for th ...
Conventional device scaling has been the main guiding principle of the MOS device engineering over these past years. However, this aggressive scaling would be eventually limited due to the inability to remove the heat generated by MOSFET devices. The power ...
We demonstrate that doping the semiconductor zinc tin oxide (ZTO) with yttrium leads to a high-voltage thin film transistor (HVTFT) with enhanced switching performance. Adding 5% yttrium leads to an increase in the on-off ratio from 40 to 1000 at an operat ...
This thesis advances the field of high-voltage thin film transistors (HVTFTs) and dielectric elastomer actuators (DEAs) by demonstrating a strategy for low-voltage addressing of an array of high voltage soft actuators suspended on a flexible substrate.Fi ...
