Assessment of Germanane Field-Effect Transistors for CMOS Technology

Zhao, Yiju; Almutairi, Abdulaziz; Yoon, Youngki (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2017-10-13)

Using self-consistent atomistic quantum transport simulations, the device characteristics of n-type and p-type germanane (GeH) field-effect transistors (FETs) are evaluated. While both devices exhibit near-identical off-state ...
MEMS Switches Implemented in Different Technologies for RF Applications

Abdel Aziz, Ahmed (University of Waterloo, 2018-01-23)

Microfabrication technologies allow building micro-scale and nano-scale mechanical switches. Despite the fact that the solid-state switches exhibit superior performance as compared to their micro-mechanical competitors ...
Resilient Corner-Based Vehicle Velocity Estimation

Pirani, Mohammad; Hashemi, Ehsan; Khajepour, Amir; Fidan, Baris; Kasaiezadeh Mahabadi, Seyed Alireza; Chen, Shih-Ken; Litkouhi, Baktiar (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2017-02-23)

This paper presents longitudinal and lateral velocity estimators by considering the effect of the suspension compliance (SC) at each corner (tire) for ground vehicles. The estimators are developed to be resilient to sensor ...
