We propose an all-optical switch based on an asymmetric directional coupler structure with epsilon-near-zero (ENZ) layer. The nonlinear optical properties the of ENZ layer are analyzed by hot-electron dynamics process, and the all-optical operating perform ...
DC power distribution systems in marine applications are in the process of being established as the preferred solution for shipboard power distribution systems. This paper presents a bus-tie switch topology for the protection of such systems. The device is ...
For communicating over mid-to-long-reach electrical links at a data-rate above 56Gb/s, ADC-based receiver (RX) has become a dominant architecture due to its strong equalization capability using complex digital signal processing algorithm benefiting from th ...
The mathematical modeling of the heart involves several challenges, which are intrinsically related to the complexity of its function. A satisfactory cardiac model must be able to describe a wide range of different processes, such as the evolution of the t ...
To study mobility behaviours and images of transport modes of teenagers in Europe, we organized a web-based survey in 2016. The population concerned is composed of teenagers (14-17 years old) living in five European countries (France, Germany, Great-Britai ...
Reconfigurable systems employ highly-routable local routing architecture to interconnect generic fine-grain logic blocks. Commercial FPGAs employ 50% sparse crossbars rather than fully-connected crossbars in their local routing architecture to trade off be ...
This paper presents a multi-port isolated DC-DC converter for DC applications. A three-port structure is presented, characterized with full bidirectional power flow and simple control. Galvanic isolation is achieved by means of a multi-winding medium frequ ...

Chattez avec Graph Search
Posez n’importe quelle question sur les cours, conférences, exercices, recherches, actualités, etc. de l’EPFL ou essayez les exemples de questions ci-dessous.
AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.
Highly integrated optical circuit switch (OCS) with large port counts (~100x100) is achievable by combining silicon photonics and MEMS technologies. We will review the design trade-offs, performance scaling, and the current state of the art. ...

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 ...
