A 12 GHz PLL with digital output phase control has been implemented in a 90 nm CMOS process. It is intended for LO signal generation in integrated phased array transceivers. Locally placed PLLs eliminate the need of long high frequency LO routing to each transceiver in a phased array circuit. Routing losses are thereby reduced and design of integrated phased array transceivers become more modular.
High-spin states in 154Dy were studied with the Gammasphere spectrometer using the 36S(122Sn,4n) reaction. Band terminating states were identified in the spin range I=(36–48)ħ, and were found to compete with collective rotational cascades up to the highest observed spins. Several “sidebands” feeding the terminating structures were identified as well. A band dominated by M1 transitions was observed
The purpose of this contribution is the presentation of a micromechanical model for martensitic phase transformations which can be applied to a wide range of materials like shape memory alloys (SMA), TRIP-steels (TRansformation Induced Plasticity) and piezoceramics. One of the key-features of the model is the consideration of several martensitic variants in addition to the parent phase austenite b
We report on a quantum dots-in-a-well infrared photodetector (DWELL QDIP) grown by metal organic vapor phase epitaxy. The DWELL QDIP consisted of ten stacked InAs/In0.15Ga0.85As/GaAs QD layers embedded between n-doped contact layers. The density of the QDs was about 9 x 1010 cm-2 per QD layer. The energy level structure of the DWELL was revealed by optical measurements of interband transitions, an
Novelty detection is based on the creation of a space with similarity metric. It is discussed that the design of a neural detector is a compromise between promptness, universatility, robustness and sensitivity. The feed-forward topology is chosen from three alternatives for its ability to design that compromise by applying structural redundancy. A generic FPGA implementation supports the use in ad
