Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The object of this thesis is to explore the low-frequency noise (LFN) in silicon-germanium (SiGe) heterojunction bipolar transistors (HBTs) and lateral bipolar junction transistors (BJTs). The LFN of SiGe HBTs and lateral BJTs not only determines the lowest detectable signal limit but also induces phase noise in high-frequency applications. Characterizing the LFN behavior and understanding the physical noise mechanism, therefore, are very important to improve the device and circuit performance. The dissertation achieves the object by investigating the LFN of SiGe HBTs and lateral BJTs with different structures for performance optimization and radiation tolerance, as well as by building models that explain the physical mechanism of LFN in these advance bipolar technologies. The scope of this research is separated into two main parts: the LFN of SiGe HBTs; and the LFN of lateral BJTs. The research in the LFN of SiGe HBTs includes investigating the effects of interfacial oxide (IFO), temperature, geometrical dimensions, and proton radiation. It also includes utilizing physical models to probe noise mechanisms. The research in the LFN of lateral BJTs includes exploring the effects of doping and geometrical dimensions. The research work is envisioned to enhance the understanding of LFN in SiGe HBTs and lateral BJTs.

This book was released on 2006-05-06 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This proceedings volume archives the contributions of the speakers who attended the NATO Advanced Research Workshop on “Science and Technology of Semiconductor-On-Insulator Structures and Devices Operating in a Harsh Environment” held at the Sanatorium Puscha Ozerna, th th Kyiv, Ukraine, from 25 to 29 April 2004. The semiconductor industry has maintained a very rapid growth during the last three decades through impressive technological achievements which have resulted in products with higher performance and lower cost per function. After many years of development semiconductor-on-insulator materials have entered volume production and will increasingly be used by the manufacturing industry. The wider use of semiconductor (especially silicon) on insulator materials will not only enable the benefits of these materials to be further demonstrated but, also, will drive down the cost of substrates which, in turn, will stimulate the development of other novel devices and applications. In itself this trend will encourage the promotion of the skills and ideas generated by researchers in the Former Soviet Union and Eastern Europe and their incorporation in future collaborations.

Book excerpt: The semiconductor industry is a fundamental building block of the new economy, there is no area of modern life untouched by the progress of nanoelectronics. The electronic chip is becoming an ever-increasing portion of system solutions, starting initially from less than 5% in the 1970 microcomputer era, to more than 60% of the final cost of a mobile telephone, 50% of the price of a personal computer (representing nearly 100% of the functionalities) and 30% of the price of a monitor in the early 2000's. Interest in utilizing the (sub-)mm-wave frequency spectrum for commercial and research applications has also been steadily increasing. Such applications, which constitute a diverse but sizeable future market, span a large variety of areas such as health, material science, mass transit, industrial automation, communications, and space exploration. Silicon-Germanium Heterojunction Bipolar Transistors for mm-Wave Systems Technology, Modeling and Circuit Applications provides an overview of results of the DOTSEVEN EU research project, and as such focusses on key material developments for mm-Wave Device Technology. It starts with the motivation at the beginning of the project and a summary of its major achievements. The subsequent chapters provide a detailed description of the obtained research results in the various areas of process development, device simulation, compact device modeling, experimental characterization, reliability, (sub-)mm-wave circuit design and systems.

Book excerpt: This book describes the fundamentals of THz communications, spanning the whole range of applications, propagation and channel models, RF transceiver technology, antennas, baseband techniques, and networking interfaces. The requested data rate in wireless communications will soon reach from 100 Gbit/s up to 1 Tbps necessitating systems with ultra-high bandwidths of several 10s of GHz which are available only above 200 GHz. In the last decade, research at these frequency bands has made significant progress, enabling mature experimental demonstrations of so-called THz communications, which are thus expected to play a vital role in future wireless networks. In addition to chapters by leading experts on the theory, modeling, and implementation of THz communication technology, the book also features the latest experimental results and addresses standardization and regulatory aspects. This book will be of interest to both academic researchers and engineers in the telecommunications industry.
