ISSCC 2006 / SESSION 23 / TECHNOLOGY AND ARCHITECTURE DIRECTIONS / 23 . 8 23 . 8 A Chip - scale Electrical Soliton

The generation of electrical pulses with durations in the picosecond range is an important topic in modern electronics [1]-[3]. Ultrafast time-domain metrology represents one of the most significant application spaces for these sharp pulses [1][2], since their narrow width directly translates to high temporal resolution. Two outstanding application examples of sharp pulses in time-domain metrol...

ISSCC 2001 / SESSION 23 / ANALOG TECHNIQUES / 23 . 4 23 . 4 A Filtering Technique to Lower Oscillator Phase Noise

Wireless applications are pushing the required phase noise in integrated oscillators to ever lower levels. Integrated oscillator circuits published so far use tuning inductors that are either fully integrated, partly integrated, or discrete, with quality factors spanning a large range. However, lacking a clear understanding of the physical processes of phase noise, it is difficult to compare th...

Session 2 Laboratory Correlates of Mare Reproductive Loss Syndrome

Assaults on Medical, Nursing and Paramedical Staff.

There has been recently yet another account of a physical assault by a patient towards a doctor 1 . The scenario is a familiar one, a drunken male in the emergency department with a minor injury. A tirade of verbal abuse and racist slurs was followed by physical violence against the doctor. The account highlights a problem that we have lived with for a long time. One of the most difficult situa...
