  2. 1. On millimeter and submillimeter wave focal plane arrays implemented with MEMS waveguide switches

    Author : Henrik Frid; Joachim Oberhammer; Vessen Vassilev; Mikro- och nanosystemteknik KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Extended Hemispherical Lens; Beam Steering; Focal Plane Array FPA ; Ray-Tracing; RF MEMS; waveguide switch; micromachined waveguide; submillimeter-wave; rectangular waveguide; terahertz; lenses; antenna theory; silicon; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Abstract : This thesis presents research towards enabling micromachined millimeter and submillimeter wave focal plane arrays (FPAs). The FPAs operate under the following principle: a switch network consisting of microelectromechanical (MEMS) switches, integrated with micromachined waveguides, is used to feed an array of antenna elements, located in the focal plane of a high-gain quasi-optical system.

  5. 3. Novel Materials and Technologies for IR Optoelectronic Applications

    Author : Yuxin Song; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; GaSbBi; dilute bismide; InAs GaSb type-II superlattice; metamorphic; InSbBi; alloy graded buffer; threading dislocation; infrared; molecular beam epitaxy;

    Abstract : This thesis focuses on novel III-V materials (InAs/GaSb type-II superlattices, T2SL, and dilute bismides) and metamorphic growth techniques for infrared optoelectronics all of which may find wide spread applications in telecommunication, energy harvesting and saving, sensing and imaging. Mid-wavelength infrared (MWIR) and long-wavelength infrared (LWIR) photodetectors at the atmospheric windows of 3-5 and 8-12 µm, respectively, are currently dominated by HgCdTe and quantum well infrared photodetectors.
