Materials with Dirac-type electronic band structure have recently drawn much interest. These materials revealed unique electrical, thermal and optical properties, which can be potentially used in future highspeed electronics. In this dissertation research, I investigate on two different classes of Dirac materials: graphene and topological insulators of the bismuth telluride (Bi2Te3) family. The...

With the increasing need to incorporate more complex mixed-signal controller for switched mode power supplies, CMOS compatibility becomes a very important consideration for monolithic DC-DC converters. This paper examines the different power output stage designs and identifies the key device characteristics such as onresistance, gate capacitance, switching speed that ensure optimized power conv...

More broadly, however, we need to get the message to the ordinary taxpayer and to legislators of the importance of basic research and of stable, longterm funding for research that only governments can afford to support. I wonder if we could convince Fox News in the USA to have a ‘redneck scientist’ segment in which a ‘salt of the earth’ scientist explains to the Fox audience how basic research ...

High speed is the main feature of the modern communications. The number of users as well as the range of data and complexity of networks are correlated. In many kinds of equipment, it is important to produce and readily control accurate waveforms of various frequencies and profiles. Many applications in electronics today involve gathering and decoding data for digital signal processing, analog ...
