Nowadays, bulk of the designers prefer to outsource some parts of their design and fabrication process to the third-part companies due to the reliability problems, manufacturing cost and time-to-market limitations. In this situation, there are a lot of opportunities for malicious alterations by the off-shore companies. In this paper, we proposed a new placement algorithm that hinders the hardwa...

the fabrication of a non-doped red organic light-emitting device (oled) has been developed using naturally occurring curcumin as an emissive layer of oled. in this research, the electroluminescent spectrum (el) of curcumin as a donor-acceptor-donor (d-a-d) chromophore was obtained at wavelength of 612 nm. also, the maximum external quantum efficiencies (eqe) for this device was measured and fou...

Carbon nanotube, a new structure of carbon element, is composed of graphene sheets rolled into closed concentric cylinders with diameter of the order of nanometers and length of micrometers. Liquid arc discharge was used for fabrication of carbon nanotubes, and subsequently a modified acid treatment method applied for purification stage. A statistical design of experimental (DOE) (Taguchi metho...

asymmetrically mixed matrix matrimid-mil-53 membranes with silicone cover layer were fabricated. for better understanding of membrane fabrication process, three main parameters of fabrication, matrimid concentration, silicone concentration and weight percentage of metal organic framework (mil-53) particles, were optimized by an experimental design method. cross-section sem images were used to s...

This thesis explores the technological issues of optically interconnecting electronics by integrating optoelectronic devices with digital electronic circuitry and optical polymer waveguides on a common substrate, utilising direct-laser writing and polymer flip-chip bonding. The work is presented in the context of an optoelectronic crosspoint switch demonstrator, which will combine high-speed lo...
