  2. 1. Planar Quasiparticle Mixer Structures for Millimeter and Sub-Millimeter Wave Receivers

    Author : Anders Skalare; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; SIS receiver; dipole array antenna; slot substrate mode loss; millimeter wave regime; planar antennas; sub-millimeter wave regime; superconducting mixers; slot radiation; slot lines; slot wavelengths; Voltage Matching Method;

    Abstract : The paper covers various aspects of integrating planar antennas with superconducting mixers in the millimeter and sub-millimeter wave regime. The construction of an 80-100 GHz tapered slot antenna and SIS mixer chip with a minimum double side band noise temperature of 240 K is described. READ MORE

  4. 2. Design, Fabrication and Characterization of Microwave Passive Devices on Liquid Crystal Polymer Substrates

    Author : Xia Zhang; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; co-planar waveguide; parallel-coupled line resonator; dual-mode ring resonator; millimeter wave; ultra-wideband; Bandpass filter; liquid crystal polymer substrate; printed monopole antenna;

    Abstract : For microwave/millimeter (mm)-wave systems’ applications, as frequency is moving towards higher and higher bands, materials and integration technologies are witnessing higher performance demands and constraints. The materials presently used as mm-wave substrates are either expensive or show unsatisfactory performance. READ MORE

  5. 3. Fundamentals of Medium Access Control Design for Millimeter Wave Networks

    Author : Hossein Shokri; Carlo Fischione; Joerg Widmer; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : In current wireless communication systems, demands for extremely high data rates, along with spectrum scarcity at the microwave bands, make the millimeter wave (mmWave) band very appealing to provide these extremely high data rates even for a massive number of wireless devices. MmWave communications exhibit severe attenuation, vulnerability to obstacles (called blockage), and sparse-scattering environments. READ MORE

  6. 4. Linear and Nonlinear Transport in Quantum Nanostructures

    Author : Anneli Löfgren; Fasta tillståndets fysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; magnetoconductance; mesoscopic; electron billiard; quantum dot; quantum ratchets; non-linear; symmetries; non-symmetric conduction; rectification; artificial material; Halvledarfysik; Fysicumarkivet A:2002:Löfgren; ballistic transport; quantum transport; 2DEG; Semiconductory physics; InP InGaAs; GaAs AlGaAs;

    Abstract : In this thesis, electron transport in mesoscopic semiconductor nanostructures, in particular so-called electron billiards or quantum dots, is studied. The thesis can be divided into two areas: the linear response regime of transport, and the nonlinear response regime of transport. READ MORE

  7. 5. Laser-Driven Particle Acceleration - Improving Performance Through Smart Target Design

    Author : Matthias Burza; Atomfysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; wakefield; ultra-relativistic; ultra-intense; TNSA; Terawatt; sheath; proton; polarimetry; plasma mirror; plasma; Petawatt; particle; oscillation; Normarski; micromachining; LWFA; laser; interferometry; electron; contrast; acceleration; bubble; Fysicumarkivet A:2012:Burza;

    Abstract : Laser-driven particle acceleration makes use of sub-picosecond, pulsed, high-power laser systems, capable of producing intensities ~10^{19} W/cm^2 at the laser focus to form plasmas, and use ultra-relativistic and nonlinear dynamics to produce quasistatic acceleration fields. This allows electrons to be accelerated to ~100 MeV over sub-centimetre distances, while protons may be accelerated to the ~10 MeV regime. READ MORE
