Ferroelectric translational antiphase boundaries in nonpolar materials

Nava Setter, Alexander Tagantsev, Alexander Kvasov, Xiankui Wei

Ferroelectric materials are heavily used in electro-mechanics and electronics. Inside the ferroelectric, domain walls separate regions in which the spontaneous polarization is differently oriented. Properties of ferroelectric domain walls can differ from t ...

A 3.1 mW 8b 1.2 GS/s Single-Channel Asynchronous SAR ADC With Alternate Comparators for Enhanced Speed in 32 nm Digital SOI CMOS

Yusuf Leblebici, Lukas Kull, Thomas Toifl

An 8b 1.2 GS/s single-channel Successive Approximation Register (SAR) ADC is implemented in 32 nm CMOS, achieving 39.3 dB SNDR and a Figure-of-Merit (FoM) of 34 fJ per conversion step. High-speed operation is achieved by converting each sample with two alt ...

Power-Efficient Pipelined Analog-to-Digital Converter Architectures for Advanced CMOS Technologies

Among different analog-to-digital converter (ADC) architectures pipelined ADCs are the most suited for medium sampling frequencies (50-300MSPS) and medium resolutions, i.e. 8 to 14 bits. Having the lowest figure-of-merit (FOM) in its bandwidth and resoluti ...

Polarisation reversal in ferroelectric PVDF and PZT films

Roman Gysel

Ferroelectrics are characterised by a spontaneous polarisation that can be reversed by an external electric field. The stability of the polarisation states and the possibility for controlled switching between the states render ferroelectric materials very ...

Ferroelectric gate on AlGaN/GaN heterostructures

Lisa Malin

The capability of switching the spontaneous polarisation under an applied electric field in ferroelectric materials can be exploited for the use in low power, non-volatile, re-writable memory devices. Currently available commercially is ferroelectric rando ...
