  1. 16. Design, Fabrication, and Characterization of Nano-Photonic Components Based on Silicon and Plasmonic Material

    Author : Liu Liu; Lars Thylén; Roe Baets; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; nano-photonics; finite-difference time-domain method; finite-difference mode solver; amorphous silicon; silicon nanowire; arrayed waveguide grating; photonic crystal; Photonics; Fotonik;

    Abstract : Size reduction is a key issue in the development of contemporary integrated photonics. This thesis is mainly devoted to study some integrated photonic components in sub-wavelength or nanometric scales, both theoretically and experimentally. READ MORE

  2. 17. Location-aided Beam Alignment and Handover in Millimeter-wave Networks

    Author : Sara Khosravi; Marina Petrova; Jens Zander; Sofie Pollin; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Millimeter wave networks; beam alignment; Handover; Reinforcement learning; Millimetervågnätverk; strålinriktning; överlämning; förstärkningsinlärning;

    Abstract : Ever-increasing data rate demands in mobile networks and the spectrum scarcity at the microwave bands have resulted in the exploration of millimeter-wave (mmWave) frequencies for the next generation of wireless networks. While mmWave frequencies offer large bandwidth, communication at these frequencies is not straightforward due to the challenging propagation characteristics. READ MORE

  3. 18. Submillimeter-Wave Waveguide Frontends by Silicon-on-Insulator Micromachining

    Author : Adrian Gomez-Torrent; Joachim Oberhammer; Umer Shah; Goutam Chattopadhyay; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; antenna; orthomode transducer; switch; waveguide; radiofrequency; beamforming network; submillimeter-wave; terahertz; silicon micromachining; deep reactive ion etching; silicon on insulator; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Abstract : This thesis presents novel radiofrequency (RF) frontend components in the submillimeter-wave (sub-mmW) range implemented by silicon micromachining, or deep reactive ion etching (DRIE). DRIE is rapidly becoming a driving technology for the fabrication of waveguide components and systems when approaching the terahertz (THz) frequency range. READ MORE

  4. 19. A Biotechnology Perspective on Silicon Nanowire FETs for Biosensor Applications

    Author : Nima Jokilaakso; Amelie Eriksson Karlström; Christer Wingren; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : The study of silicon nanowire-FET-based electronic biosensor applications is an emerging scientific field. These biosensors have the benefit of being theoretically extremely sensitive and reports of down to femtomolar (fM) levels of biomolecule detection have been reported. READ MORE

  5. 20. Chemical vapour deposition of sp2-hybridised B-C-N materials from organoborons

    Author : Laurent Souqui; Anne Henry; Hans Högberg; Henrik Pedersen; John R. Abelson; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; boron nitride; epitaxy; CVD; boron carbide; carbonitride; PECVD;

    Abstract : Thin films of sp2-BN are promising materials for graphene and deep-UV optoelectronics. They are typically deposited by thermally activated chemical vapour deposition (CVD) from triethylboron (TEB) and ammonia (NH3) at 1500 °C, albeit in a narrow process window. READ MORE
