High Q frequency reference devices are essential components in many Integrated circuits. This paper will focus on the Resonant Suspended Gate (RSG) MOSFET. The gate in this structure has been designed to resonate at 38.4MHz. The MOSFET in this device has a retrograde channel to achieve high output current. For this purpose, abrupt retrograde channel and Gaussian retrograde channels have bee...

Realization of a novel single-resistance-controlled oscillator, employing an active element and all grounded passive elements, is the purpose of this manuscript. With requirements for completing the design being only a single Voltage Differencing Current Conveyor and four grounded passive components, it is also a preferable choice for integrated circuit implementation. The designed circuit has ...

Silicon-based large-scale photonic integrated circuits are becoming important, due to the need for higher complexity and lower cost for optical transmitters, receivers and optical buffers. In this paper, passive technologies for large-scale photonic integrated circuits are described, including polarization handling, light non-reciprocity and loss reduction. The design rule for polarization beam...

modern integrated circuits consist of millions of standard cells and routing paths. in nano-scale designs, mis-prediction is a dominant problem that may diminish the quality of physical design algorithms or even result in the disruption of the convergence of the design cycle. in this paper, a new planning methodology is presented in which a master-plan of the chip is constructed at the early le...

In this paper, hardware realization of Cellular Neural Networks in amorphous silicon thin film technology is proposed. In this way, it is possible to realize inexpensive large-scale, easily programmable circuits, with integrated light-sensing and -emitting devices.

On-chip optical data processing and photonic quantum integrated circuits require the integration of densely packed directional couplers at the nanoscale. However, the inherent evanescent coupling at this length scale severely limits the compactness of such on-chip photonic circuits. Here, inspired by the adiabatic elimination in a N-level atomic system, we report an experimental realization of ...

Behavioral models are used for top-down design and for bottom-up verification. The efficient simulation of large–scale dynamical system needs a systematic procedure for order reduction of the original circuit. A method based on the moment matching for behavioral model generation of analog integrated circuits and by comparison some approaches to obtain an accurate approximation of the circuit fu...

A low-temperature electro-optic sampling system was implemented to study the crosstalk of picosecond pulses between on-chip microstrip interconnects. With a submillivolt sensitivity and a subpicosecond temporal response, this system has allowed noninvasive, nodal testing of superconducting Nb integrated circuits. We have characterized pulse propagation and the crosstalk arising from two microst...
