The freeze-quenching technique is extremely useful for trapping meta-stable intermediates populated during fast chemical or biochemical reactions. The application of this technique, however, is limited by the long mixing time of conventional solution mixers and the slow freezing time of cryogenic fluids. To overcome these problems, we have designed and tested a novel microfluidic silicon mixer ...

The Process Analytical Technology (PAT) initiative has encouraged the development of new technology to improve upon the current manufacturing paradigm. As a result substantial attention has recently focused on continuous processing due to the ability to control disturbances online, avoiding the loss of processing materials and enabling effective process scale-up. In this paper, a pharmaceutical...

In this paper, a mixer topology selection for a multi-standard high image-reject front-end is presented. The receiver is intended to work for Digital Enhanced Cordless Telephone (DECT) systems (at 1.9 GHz and 2.4 GHz) and for Bluetooth (at 2.4 GHz). It will be implemented in 0 18 μm CMOS technology. A double-quadrature low-IF architecture is employed because it can provide a high image rejectio...

The three existing dominant network families, i.e., CNNs, Transformers and MLPs, differ from each other mainly in the ways of fusing spatial contextual information, leaving designing more effective token-mixing mechanisms at core backbone architecture development. In this work, we propose an innovative token-mixer, dubbed Active Token Mixer (ATM), to actively incorporate information tokens glob...

This paper presents a novel digital circuit, based on the analog Dual Mixer Time Difference circuit, developed by David W. Allan, designed to characterise oscillators frequency stability. The proposed digital circuit, named Digital Dual Mixer Time Difference (DDMTD), is capable of measuring time differences between two digital clock signals with very fine resolution (subpicosecond) using a rela...

In this paper, in order to design a K-band commongate Gilbert-cell mixer via a 0.18 lm CMOS technology, thepNetwork and post-distortion cancellation (PDC) techniques are implemented simultaneously, resulting in the improvement of gain, bandwidth, noise figure and linearity. Also, a new method for implementing the p-Network, using the parasitic capacitances between RF and LO stage nodes, is prop...

The level of signal reflection at an intermediate frequency from SIS-mixer was calculated and experimentally measured. measurement performed for the mixer in operation, namely, it biased by voltage local oscillator applied. It is shown that power coefficient can vary -20 to -3 dB depending on operating point. An experimental method determining impedance supply line proposed tested. Keywords: su...
