Forward V-band Vector Network Analyzer Based on a Modified Six-port Technique

Kamel Haddadi, Tuami Lasri

A V-band forward network analyzer based on a modified six-port technique is proposed for the measurement of complex reflection (S-11) and transmission (S-21) coefficients. The millimeter-wave part of the system is implemented on a thin alumina ceramic substrate. The measurement performance is…

De-embedding differential noise figure using the correlation of output noise waves

Francois Graux, Francois Danneville, Yogadissen Andee, Caroline Arnaud

This paper presents a measurement technique for de-embedding the noise figure of all sorts of differential amplifiers having arbitrary common-mode rejection. It is based on the measurement of the correlation of the noise waves at the output ports of the differential amplifier. It makes use of a…

Characterization of flexible CMOS technology tranferred onto a metallic foil

Justine Philippe, Aurelien Lecavelier Des Etangs-Levallois, Philip Latzel, Francois Danneville, J.F. Robillard, Daniel Gloria, Emmanuel Dubois

In this work we demonstrate a method to transfer high-performance industrial CMOS circuits thinned down to 5.7 mu m and bond onto a 25-mu m-thick stainless steel foil with a 800-nm-thick indium layer. The bonding is performed at the temperature of 100 degrees C with an applied pressure of 1.2 bar.…

Kinetic proofreading of chromatin remodeling: from gene activation to gene repression and back

Raghvendra Singh, Guillaume Brysbaert, Marc Lensink, Fabrizio Cleri, Ralf Blossey

ATP-dependent chromatin remodeling is the active displacement of nucleosomes along or off DNA induced by chromatin remodeling complexes. This key process of gene regulation in eukaryote organisms has recently been argued to be controlled by a kinetic proofreading mechanism. In this paper we present…

QAM-32/0.588 THz communication using electronic Schottky transceivers

Guillaume Ducournau, Pascal Szriftgiser, Denis Bacquet, Emilien Peytavit, Mohammed Zaknoune, Rédha Kassi, Jean-Francois Lampin

We report on THz communication system using vectorial modulations schemes above 500 GHz. Using schottky-based electronic technologies at 588 GHz, potentialities of high-level multi-carrier modulation schemes for wireless links are analyzed. The wireless link is composed of an emitter with sub-…

Drift velocity versus electric field in < 110 > Si nanowires: Strong confinement effects

Jing Li, Gabriel Mugny, Yann-Michel Niquet, Christophe Delerue

We have performed atomistic simulations of the phonon-limited high field carrier transport in < 110 > Si nanowires with small diameter. The carrier drift velocities are obtained from a direct solution of the non-linear Boltzmann transport equation. The relationship between the drift velocity…

A Unified Explanation of gm /ID -Based Noise Analysis

Jack Ou, Pietro Maris Ferreira

We present an unified explanation of the transconductance-to-drain current (gm/ID)-based noise analysis in this paper. We show that both thermal noise coefficient (γ) and device noise corner frequency (fco) are dependent on the gm/ID of a transistor. We derive expressions to demonstrate the…
