Co-design of Mm-wave Interfaces, Duplexers and CMOS Transmitters KU Leuven
The vision for both the 5th generation mobile communication systems (5G) and the internet of things (IoT) keeps moving towards the final deployment. These new emerging applications require enormous data transmission with low latency among user devices and different networks. Spectral resources at low-GHz range are running low and could hardly meet the requirement either in a wireless or wire-line fashion. Millimeter-wave (mm-Wave) technology ...

The role of lipids during sponge cake making and their impact on sponge cake quality KU Leuven
Flour, sugar and eggs are the main ingredients of sponge cake. This cake system therefore only contains lipids originating from flour and eggs (i.e. endogenous batter lipids). Cake making includes three stages: (i) mixing the ingredients into a batter, (ii) baking the batter until a cake is formed and (iii) cooling the cake to room temperature. Batter of sponge cake is a foam and thus an intrinsically unstable structure because of ...

Cross-Reality Interaction KU Leuven
The goal of this project is to explore novel methodologies to support interaction between realities. By reality, we mean those defined on the Reality-Virtuality continuum by Milgran and Kishino, in addition to our own reality. Scenarios where users might be immersed in Virtual Reality in the same physical location where other non-immersed users might be present, are becoming increasingly more frequent. This introduces the concept of ...

Advance semiconductor wetting and drying: limitations, defect formation and solutions KU Leuven
Semiconductor device fabrication still follows the Moore’s law to increase the process yield by increasing the number of cleaning steps to minimize the number of surface defects. Process induced defect (PID) is a characterization term defined as the main failure mechanism toward efficient cleaning rinsing and drying process. Source of defects might be extrinsic, which represent all contaminations coming from water, ambient and the surface ...

Analyzing inconvenient realities and chances for resilience and sustainability
A social-ecological systems approach to disaster governance
In many places in the world, people are increasingly exposed to disasters. A few recent disasters illustrate the global magnitude of the problem: the oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico in 2010, the earthquake, tsunami and ...
Design and microfabrication of flexible neural probes for chronic applications KU Leuven
In the last decades, the clinical applications of neural devices have increased exponentially. Accommodated by the ever increasing miniaturization and affordability of sensors and circuitry more and more developments transitioned from the field of experimental research towards clinical practice. Nowadays, we possess a wide variety of tools that can be used to assess different aspects of the central and peripheral nervous system. These include ...
