Design, fabrication and characterization of ferroelectret energy harvester
(University of Waterloo, 2019-04-22)Energy harvesters gained significant interest over the last decade with the reduce in power requirements of today’s electrical devices and with the fast developments in low-power electronics. Limited battery life is one ... -
Design, Fabrication and Characterization of MEMS Gyroscopes Based on Frequency Modulation
(University of Waterloo, 2018-07-24)Conventional amplitude modulated (AM) open loop MEMS gyroscopes experience a significant performance trade-off between having a large bandwidth or high sensitivity. It is impossible to improve both metrics at the same time ... -
Electromagnetic Vibrational Energy Harvesters and Power Management
(University of Waterloo, 2016-01-14)The interest in scavenging various energy sources from the environment is rapidly increasing. Thanks to the advances in developing effective energy harvesters researches. Kinetic energy is a renewable source and it can ... -
Optimal Material Selection for Transducers
(University of Waterloo, 2018-02-15)When selecting an active material for an application, it is tempting to rely upon prior knowledge or commercial products that fit the design criteria. While this method is time effective, it does not provide an optimal ... -
Power Module Packaging in Automotive Applications
(University of Waterloo, 2016-05-02)In this study, nano silver paste was used as die attach material with the aim of increasing reliability of joints in power modules in automotive applications. Prior to joining, nano silver paste was spread on the interface ... -
Resonant Adaptive Mirrors
(University of Waterloo, 2020-05-28)Deformable mirrors (DMs) are integrated into adaptive optical (AO) systems to compensate for wavefront aberrations. These aberrations degrade the image resolution of telescopes, microscopes, ophthalmoscopes, and optical ...
