This study examines the effect of library instruction on two sections of the same senior-level electrical engineering course in analog integrated circuit design. One section received a onehour library instruction session while the other section did not. The premise of the study is that inclusion of library instruction will result in higher utilization of scholarly resources in the students’ fin...

A novel technique is presented for the high speed, accurate, predictive modeling of arbitrary geometry integrated resistor structures manufactured in a variety of technologies, including those of both multichip modules (MCM’s) and integrated circuits (IC’s). The technique is based upon generating test structures in the process of interest, performing measurements, and extracting the behavior of...

In the recent decade, integrated electronics implemented using wide bandgap semiconductor technologies such as Gallium Nitride (GaN) and Silicon Carbide (SiC) have been shown to be viable candidates in extreme environments (e.g high-temperature and high radiation). Such electronics have applications in down-hole drilling, automobile-, airand spaceindustries. In this thesis, integrated circuits ...

The auth6rs have applied a simple modelling approach for multiple resonant tunnelling transistors (mRTTs) which includes four resonant tunnelling diodes (RTDs) within the transistor structure. Unique features of this model, corresponding to device features compatible for integrated circuits, allow for tuning and matching the devices for optimum circuit performance. Two circuits are presented fo...
