ESD characterization of hgh mobility SiGe quantum well and Ge devices for future CMOS scaling KU Leuven
The next technology option to keep CMOS scaling on pace after the introduction of finFETs, is the use of High Mobility channels. For the first time, the ESD reliability of such a technology option is studied for pMOS devices using SiGe Quantum Well and Ge channels.
ESD Challenges for Advanced Technology and System Scaling - Germanium Finfet and Silicon Photonics KU Leuven
Electrostatic Discharges (ESD) are one of the main product reliability threats in modern electronics. Therefore it is essential to study and simulate real ESD events already during the technology development. This thesis covers mainly two technology options. On one hand, it focuses on the material Germanium (Ge), that is considered as high mobility channel material to enhance transistor performance. The Ge resarch covers the study of Ge diodes ...
Electrical and thermal scaling trends for SOI FinFET ESD design KU Leuven
This paper first presents an analysis of the holding voltage of NMOS and PMOS SOI FinFETs in bipolar mode. Further, to make FinFETs an area-efficient technology option, geometrical parameters which are fixed by the current process will be scaled down. A TCAD simulation methodology is used to predict the robustness of scaled-down FinFETs. © 2009 ESDA.
Resource allocation in DMT transmitters with per-tone pulse shaping KU Leuven
Per-tone pulse shaping has been proposed as an alternative to time domain spectral shaping for DMT transmitters, e.g. VDSL modems. It shapes the spectrum of individual tones such that the stop band energy of each tone can be minimized. This in particular enables transmitter to use more tones without violating the PSD mask constraint for data transmission. In per-tone pulse shaping based DMT transmitters a fixed length pulse shaping filter is ...
Sparse approximations resource allocation in DMT transmitters with per-tone pulse shaping KU Leuven
Per-tone pulse shaping has been proposed as an alternative to time domain spectral shaping for DMT transmitters. It shapes the spectrum of individual tones such that their stop band energy contribution can be minimized. In per-tone pulse shaping based DMT transmitters a fixed order non-sparse pulse shaping filter is typically used for every tone. Furthermore, no specific power loading scheme is used. However, the contribution of a particular ...
Towards a compatible Level-2 DSM Algorithm to protect downstream Multiuser xDSL legacy systems Vrije Universiteit Brussel
Higher levels of Dynamic Spectrum Management (DSM) are strongly desired; however, we still need methods that are compliant with the current spectrum management specifications and DSM-proven, at the same time. Therefore, we propose a simple yet efficient pre-Level-2 DSM algorithm to protect legacy xDSL systems from new technology implementations (e.g. VDSL2). We show by extensive simulations how effective our proposed algorithm performs over ...

Estimation of particle size distributions from bulk scattering spectra: sensitivity to distribution type and spectral noise KU Leuven
A shape dependent method for particle size distribution (PSD) estimation based on bulk scattering properties was elaborated. This method estimates the parameters of a particle size distribution with predefined shape from the bulk scattering spectra. The estimation routine was validated on simulated data of polystyrene in water suspensions. To investigate the effect of measurement errors on PSD estimates, a sensitivity analysis was performed. The ...
