Spike-Based Sensing and Communication for Highly Energy-Efficient Sensor Edge Nodes

Highly energy-efficient wireless sensor nodes are a prerequisite for a sustainable operation of the Internet of things. Therefore, classical approaches for system design based on digital signal processing are not a viable solution, but system design has to ...

Electrical Spectroscopy of Defect States in Synthetic 2D Materials

Yanfei Zhao

Two-dimensional (2D) materials such as graphene and transition metal dichalcogenide (TMDC) are considered as one of the most promising material platforms for future electronic devices, due to their ultra-thin thickness and fascinating electrical and optica ...

Crystal-Size-Induced Band Gap Tuning in Perovskite Films

Michael Graetzel, Wolfgang Richard Tress, Amita Ummadisingu, Simone Meloni

A comprehensive picture explaining the effect of the crystal size in metal halide perovskite films on their opto-electronic characteristics is currently lacking. We report that perovskite nanocrystallites exhibit a wider band gap due to concurrent quantum ...

Classic Electrically Small Antennas Versus in/On-Body Antennas: Similarities and Differences

Anja Skrivervik

Electrically small antennas (ESAs) have been discussed since the early radio days, when all antennas were small compared to the wavelength. The boom of mobile phones triggered a second wave of intense research activity on these devices, which continues tod ...

High Performance, Continuously Tunable Microwave Filters Using MEMS Devices With Very Large, Controlled, Out-of-Plane Actuation

Matthias Imboden

Software defined radios (SDR) in the microwave X- and K-bands offer the promise of low cost, programmable operation with real-time frequency agility. However, the real world in which such radios operate requires them to be able to detect nanowatt signals i ...

Optically isolated millimeter-wave detector for the Toroidal Plasma Experiment

Timothy Goodman, Stefano Alberti, Anja Skrivervik, Ivo Furno, Marcelo Baquero Ruiz, Oulfa Chellaï, Gennady Plyushchev, Fabian Manke

We have designed and built an optically isolated millimeter-wave detection system to prevent interference from a nearby, powerful, 2.45 GHz microwave source in millimeter-wave propagation experiments in the TORoroidal Plasma EXperiment (TORPEX). A series o ...

Beamforming-deconvolution: A novel concept of deconvolution for ultrasound imaging

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Yves Wiaux, Adrien Georges Jean Besson

In ultrasound (US) imaging, beamforming is usually separated from the deconvolution or some other post-processing techniques. The former processes raw data to build radio-frequency (RF) images while the latter restore high-resolution images, denoted as tis ...
