A numerical design for SWIR/eSWIR dual-band operation with InGaAs nBn structures

2022-01-01
In this paper, we present an nBn type dual-band InGaAs photodetector design with bias selectable cut-off wavelengths of 1.7 mu m and 2.5 mu m. InP based epilayer design consists of a compositionally graded quaternery InAlGaAs barrier region sandwiched between lattice matched InGaAs absorber and extended InGaAs absorber. In this study, we also provide a comparison between suggested nBn structure and a relatively usual npn InGaAs structure, using the same computational environment.

A Wideband Fractal Antenna and Comparison of RF Rectifiers for Electromagnetic Energy Harvesting
Ozdemir, Huriye; Nesimoglu, Tayfun (2017-11-30)
This paper presents a wideband fractal antenna and compares two efficient rectifier topologies suitable for 2.45 GHz band. The combined fractal antenna and the rectifiers may be used for ambient RF energy harvesting from wireless LAN/Wi-Ei. The proposed fractal antenna covers the most frequently encountered frequency bands which are located around 1800 MHz, 2.1 GHz, 2.4 GHz and 2.45 GHz corresponding to standards like GSM/DCS, UMTS, ISM and WLAN respectively. The return loss of the proposed antenna is below...
Three Dimensional Microfabricated Broadband Patch and Multifunction Reconfigurable Antennae for 60 GHz Applications
Hunerli, H. V.; Mopidevi, H.; Cagatay, E.; Imbert, M.; Romeu, J.; Jofre, L.; Cetiner, B. A.; BIYIKLI, NECMİ (2015-05-17)
In this paper we present two antenna designs capable of covering the IEEE 802.11ad (WiGig) frequency band (57-66 GHz and 59-66 GHz respectively). The work below reports the design, microfabrication and characterization of a broadband patch antenna along with the design and microfabrication of multifunction reconfigurable antenna (MRA) in its static form excluding active switching. The first design is a patch antenna where the energy is coupled with a conductor-backed (CB) coplanar waveguide (CPW)-fed loop s...
A readout circuit for QWIP infrared detector arrays using current mirroring integration
Tepegoz, M; Akın, Tayfun (2003-09-18)
This paper reports a current mirroring integration (CMI) CMOS readout circuit for high-resolution Quantum Well Infrared Photodetectors (QWIPs). The circuit uses a feedback structure with current mirrors to provide stable bias voltage across the photodetectors, which can be adjusted between 0 V and 3.5V. The photodetector current is mirrored to an integration capacitor which can be placed outside of the unit pixel, reducing the pixel area and allowing to integrate the current on larger capacitances for large...
A study on transmit beamforming and noisy autoregressive modeling problems
Çayır, Ömer; Candan, Çağatay; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2023-1)
This thesis presents algorithms for two problems in statistical signal processing. The first problem is the transmit beamformer design under the peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) constraint. With the aim of establishing a trade-off between the power efficiency (maximizing the average transmitted power in the main lobe) and other metrics, such as the fluctuation of power in the main lobe and the peak-sidelobe level, how the PAPR constraint affects the design problem is examined. In general, unimodular weigh...
ANALYSIS OF MILLIMETER WAVE-GUIDES ON ANISOTROPIC SUBSTRATES USING THE 3-DIMENSIONAL TRANSMISSION-LINE MATRIX-METHOD
BULUTAY, C; PRASAD, S (1993-06-01)
Three-dimensional condensed asymmetrical node, variable grid, transmission-line matrix (TLM) method has been used in analyzing several millimeter waveguides on anisotropic substrates. The dispersion characteristics of image guides together with field and energy confinement properties at millimeter-wave frequencies have been investigated. Edge coupled microstrip line on a uniaxial substrate is analyzed for the even and odd mode dispersion characteristics. Finally the same analysis is repeated for bilateral f...
