Hybrid CMOS/nanodevice circuits with tightly integrated memory and logic functionality

Strukov D.B., University of California at Santa Barbara, US

We propose dynamic CMOL FPGA circuits which have potentials to perform massively parallel high throughput computations and in particular suitable for pattern matching tasks. The main difference of the proposed circuits from previously suggested hybrid [...]

Bulk-Titanium Waveguide – a New Building Block for Microwave Planar Circuits

Huang X.T., Todd S., Ding C., MacDonald N.C., University of California at Santa Barbara, US

We present a new topology for planar microwave transmission line: bulk titanium waveguide. The waveguide is formed by deep trench etching, dielectric gap filling, and planarization. The high aspect ratio of the resulting structure provide [...]

Determination of Frequency Dependent Fluid Damping of Micro and Nano Resonators for Different Cross-sections

Zhang W., Requa M., Turner K., University of California at Santa Barbara, US

This research is to quantitatively investigate the fluid damping of the MEMS and NEMS flexural resonators such as AFM and carbon nanotube resonators. We systematically explore the three most important factors which affect the fluid [...]
