    Sammanfattning : Efficient, compact, and reliable terahertz frequency converters preferably operating at ambient temperature are crucial for stabilising far-infrared optical sources. This thesis focuses on the design and characterisation of terahertz Schottky diode harmonic mixers for frequency stabilisation of quantum-cascade lasers. LÄS MER

  2. 2. Fabrication, Characterisation and Modelling of Subharmonic Graphene FET Mixers

    Författare :Omid Habibpour; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; gate dielectric; Graphene; harmonic balance analysis.; subharmonic resistive mixers; microwave FETs; device modelling;

    Sammanfattning : Graphene has exceptional carrier transport properties which makes it a promising material for future nanoelectronics. The high carrier mobility along with the ability to switch between n- and p-channel in a graphene field effect transistor (G-FET) truly distinguishes it from other types of FET technologies and enables completely new high frequency devices.

  5. 5. High Performance LNAs and Mixers for Direct Conversion Receivers in BiCMOS and CMOS Technologies

    Författare :TOBIAS TIRED; Institutionen för elektro- och informationsteknik; []
    Nyckelord :LNA; mixer; direct conversion receiver;

    Sammanfattning : The trend in cellular chipset design today is to incorporate support for a larger number of frequency bands for each new chipset generation. If the chipset also supports receiver diversity two low noise amplifiers (LNAs) are required for each frequency band. This is however associated with an increase of off-chip components, i.e. LÄS MER
