A current mirror (CM) based on self cascode MOSFETs low voltage analog and mixed mode structures has been proposed. The proposed CM has high output impedance and can operate at 0.5 V. P-Spice simulations confirm the high performance of this CM with a bandwidth of 6.0 GHz at input current of 100 μA. Keywords—Current Mirrors, Composite Cascode Structure, Current Source/Sink.

James Webb Space Telescope Optical Telescope Element (OTE) is a three mirror anastigmat consisting of a 6.5 m primary mirror (PM), secondary mirror (SM) and a tertiary mirror. The primary mirror is made out of 18 segments. The telescope and instruments will be assembled at Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC) to make it the Optical Telescope Element-Integrated Science Instrument Module (OTIS). Th...

Abstract Direct attachment of piezoelectric transducers on hot targets raise formidable challenges as piezoelectric materials will lose their piezoelectric characteristic at elevated temperature due to Curie temperature limitation. In this paper, an attempt was made to build an integrated probe for hot target which enables to alleviate innovatively the Curie temperature limitation. In addition,...

We propose a technique aimed at cooling a harmonically oscillating mirror to its quantum mechanical ground state starting from room temperature. Our method, which involves the two-sided irradiation of the vibrating mirror inside an optical cavity, combines several advantages over the two-mirror arrangements being used currently. For comparable parameters the three-mirror configuration provides ...
