80ns/45GHz Pulsed Measurement System for DC and RF Characterisation of High Speed Microwave Devices
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents a combined pulsed I(V) pulsed RF state-of-the-art measurement system. Isothermal DC and AC measurement data can be achieved allowing a complete characterization and exploration of the safe operating area (SOA) of advanced SiGe:C HBTs. System behavior is explained in detail and reproduced by simulation taking into account the influence of all parasitic components. Optimization steps, system verification, measurement results and accuracy issues are presented.

RF-driven Josephson bifurcation amplifier for quantum measurement.
We have constructed a new type of amplifier whose primary purpose is the readout of superconducting quantum bits. It is based on the transition of a rf-driven Josephson junction between two distinct oscillation states near a dynamical bifurcation point. The main advantages of this new amplifier are speed, high sensitivity, low backaction, and the absence of on-chip dissipation. Pulsed microwave...
متن کاملHigh Speed Optical Transmitter and Receiver Development for Lidar and Communications
My long-term goal concerns component development for a novel hybrid lidar-radar system for underwater surveillance. Preliminary ocean experiments of the hybrid lidar-radar system have confirmed the potential of microwave-modulated pulsed lidar to be a superior detection mechanism for underwater surveillance [1]. The next step in the evolution of this novel technique is the improvement of the ke...

A novel nonlinear model for MESFET/HEMT devices is presented. The model can be applied to low power (GaAs) and high power (GaN) devices with equal success. The model provides accurate simulation of the static (DC) and dynamic (Pulsed) I-V characteristics of the device over a wide bias and ambient temperature range (from −70◦C to +70◦C) without the need of an additional electro-thermal sub-circu...

This proposal concerns component development for a novel hybrid lidar-radar system for underwater surveillance. Computer simulations and laboratory measurements of pulsed lidar revealed a 17 dB suppression of the water backscatter signal (clutter) and corresponding target contrast enhancement. Preliminary ocean experiments have confirmed the potential of pulsed lidar to be a superior detection ...
