1. Low Noise Oscillator in ADPLL toward Direct-to-RF All-digital Polar Transmitter
Sammanfattning : In recent years all-digital or digitally-intensive RF transmitters (TX) have attracted great attention in both literature and industry. The motivation is to implement RF circuits in a manner suiting advanced nanometer CMOS processes. To achieve that, information is encoded in the time-domain rather than voltage amplitude. LÄS MER
2. Digital Phase Locked Loops for Radio Frequency Synthesis
Sammanfattning : The demands for an ever higher data rate and a more varied functionality at minimal cost and power consumption have been the driving force behind most innovations in wireless communication systems. Intensive efforts have been made to develop Radio Frequency (RF) Integrated Circuits (ICs) and systems using low-cost Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor (CMOS) processes. LÄS MER
3. Advanced Functional Materials for Intermediate-Temperature Ceramic Fuel Cells
Sammanfattning : Low to intermediate-temperature solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC, 500 oC-700 oC) based on doped ceria (DCO) electrolyte has attracted much attention during the last decade. However, DCO suffers from electronic conduction caused byreduction of Ce (IV) to Ce (III) at high temperatures and low oxygen partial pressures and has a high grain-boundary resistivity. LÄS MER
4. Novel methods for 3-D semi-automatic mapping of fracture geometry at exposed rock faces
Sammanfattning : To analyse the influence of fractures on hydraulic andmechanical behaviour of fractured rock masses, it is essentialto characterise fracture geometry at exposed rock faces. Thisthesis describes three semi-automatic methods for measuring andquantifying geometrical parameters of fractures, and aims tooffer a novel approach to the traditional mapping methods. LÄS MER
5. Studies of Interstellar Molecular Gas in the Magellanic Clouds
Sammanfattning : Results of observational studies of interstellar molecular gas clouds in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) and the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC), two nearby metal-poor and dust-poor dwarf galaxies, are presented. Spectral line radiation emitted by interstellar molecules has been used to probe the physical state and the chemical composition of individual molecular clouds. LÄS MER
