Fabrication and characterization of compliant off-chip double helix and carbon nanotube interconnect
(2014-12-10)
Microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) type double helix chip-level electrical interconnect structures are fabricated and characterized in this work. Due to their springlike structure, double helix interconnects have the ...
Die Attach for High Temperature Applications
(2014-12-17)
The energy sector is seeing dynamic growth with advanced oil and gas recovery methods being deployed. Measure-while-drilling (MWD) and downhole production instrumentation is important to maximize production and safety. ...
Aperture Coupled Microstrip Patch Antenna for WIFI, WiMAX, and Radar Applications
(2014-04-25)
The aperture-coupled microstrip patch antenna is presented. The operation frequency
range of antenna is 4.8 - 5.2 GHz. This frequency range is possible due to the use of low
dielectric materials for the patch and microstrip ...
A Dual-Band Metamaterial Antenna
(2014-05-02)
Metamaterials have a wide variety of potential applications in areas such as optics, acoustics and RF design. Split-Ring Resonators (SRR) are fundamental sub-wavelength structures found in metamaterial design. An adaptation ...

Flexible Nonvolatile Cu/CuxO/Ag ReRAM Fabricated Using Ink-Jet Printing Technology
(2014-05-01)
The design and fabrication of flexible Cu/CuxO/Ag ReRAM devices is presented in this work. We have investigated Cu/CuxO/Ag capacitor-like structure which exhibits bipolar resistive switching behavior under low-range direct ...
Carbon Nanotubes (CNTs) as Electron Emitters for Plasmas Operating in Subatmospheric pressure under DC and Pulsed Fields
(2014-05-05)
Subatmospheric pressure is defined as the pressure from several milliTorr to several hundred Torr. The plasmas operated in subatmospheric pressure have the advantages of easier construction and stable operation. The ...
Power Control for Underlay Cognitive Radio Networks with Full-duplex Transmissions
(2014-03-31)
Radio communication, one of core contents in wireless communication, is facing a great crisis of running out of resource. Unlike other energy crisis which can be solved by using all kinds of alternative energy, the only ...
Laser beam shaping and transformation using freeform surface design
(2014-05-02)
Lasers are used in many areas including material processing (lithography, semiconductor manufacturing), welding, cutting, drilling, medical procedures (eye surgery and cosmetic skin treatments), and optical data processing. ...
