Electra is a rep-rate Krypton Fluoride (KrF) laser that will be used to develop the technology required for an Inertial Fusion Energy (IFE) Power Plant. Electra will use the same type of architecture as the Nike 60 em amplifier [1], e.g. double-sided electron beam pumping of the laser gas, but it will run at 5 Hz and use technologies that can meet the IFE requirements for efficiency, durability...

Multilevel inverter created a new evolution of newer topologies. Some of the recently proposed multilevel inverter topologies with reduce power switch count are reviewed and analysed. This paper will expose the idea of qualitative and quantitative parameter of multilevel inverter. Then this paper will share creation and an updating of various Topologies. Based on a detailed comparison of these ...

Power quality in terms of power factor, THD and precisely regulated output voltage are the major key factors for efficient operation of power electronic converters. This paper presents an easy and effective active wave shaping control scheme for the pulsed input current drawn by the uncontrolled diode bridge rectifier thereby achieving power factor nearer to unity and also satisfying the THD sp...

-This paper proposes a low-power and area-efficient shift register using digital pulsed latches. The area and power consumption are reduced by replacing flip-flops with pulsed latches. This method solves the timing problem between pulsed latches through the use of multiple non-overlap delayed pulsed clock signals instead of the conventional single pulsed clock signal. The shift register uses a ...

Silicon photonic devices based on silicon photonic wire waveguides are especially attractive devices, since they can be ultracompact and low-power consumption. In this paper, we demonstrated various devices fabricated on silicon photonic wire waveguides. They included optical directional couplers, reconfigurable optical add/drop multiplexers, 1 × 2, 1 × 4, 1 × 8 and 4 × 4 optical switches, ring...

ii ABSTRACT High-power short electrical pulses are important for high-performance functionality integration, such as the development of microelectromechanical/nanoelectromechanical systems (MEMS/NEMS), system on chip (SoC) and lab on chip (LoC). Many of these applications need high-power (low impedance load) short electrical pulses, in addition to CMOS digital intelligence. Therefore, it is of ...

Adaptive Virtual Channel (AVC) is proposed as a novel technique to achieve low power NoC switch. Power supply gating is employed to reduce the power dissipation of NoC switch without degrading network performance. Hierarchical multiplexing tree is used to achieve efficient AVC. AVC could reduce both dynamic and leakage power of the switch. Hierarchical multiplexing tree decreases the area of th...
