Introduction to Special Issue Honoring Dr. Clayton R. Paul

August 1, 2013
Author(s)
Christopher L. Holloway
Dr. Paul’s unique insight into the topics covered in these five papers and in many other areas in EM and EMC, will be missed. We are all tremendously grateful to Dr. Paul. He was invaluable to us personally and to many others in promoting the understanding

Performance of BAW Resonators at Cryogenic Temperatures

July 21, 2013
Author(s)
Eduard Rocas, C. Collado, Jordi Mateu, A Hueltes, J. Verdu, Robert Aigner, James Booth
In this work we go beyond the usual temperature range for commercial applications and explore the functioning of Bulk Acoustic Wave (BAW) resonators down to cryogenic temperatures, to get the whole picture at understanding the physical tendency of the main

G-band micro-fabricated frequency-steered arrays with 2deg/GHz beam steering

July 17, 2013
Author(s)
Leonardo M. Ranzani, Daniel G. Kuester, Kenneth Vanhille, Anatoliy Boryssenko, Erich N. Grossman, Zoya Popovic
In this paper, we describe micro-fabricated frequency-scanned slot waveguide arrays operating between 130 and 180 GHz for planetary landing radar. The group delay dispersion of the feed line is increased by corrugating the bottom rectangular waveguide wall

Characterizing Large-Form-Factor Devices in a Reverberation Chamber

July 15, 2013
Author(s)
Catherine A. Remley, Gerrit S. van de Beek, Christopher L. Holloway, John M. Ladbury
Abstract—With new technologies such as machine-to-machine communications there is a growing need to test large-formfactor devices in reverberation chambers. The performance of the reverberation chamber can be degraded by the physical characteristics of

Sensitivity of Probes in Near-Field Spherical-Scanning Antenna Measurements

July 7, 2013
Author(s)
Ronald C. Wittmann, Michael H. Francis
We define and calculate sensitivity for several actual and simulated probes. Probe sensitivity can have a significant impact on measurement uncertainty associated with probe deconvolution in near- field, spherical scanning, antenna measurements.

Radio-Frequency and DC Electrical Characterization on a Modular MEMS Mechanical Test Platform for Nanomaterials

June 16, 2013
Author(s)
J. J. Brown, Thomas Mitchell (Mitch) Wallis, Pavel Kabos, Kristine A. Bertness, Norman Sanford, Victor Bright
In order to enable radio frequency (RF) data collection from a micromechanical system designed to strain nanomaterials, a coplanar electrical waveguide has been integrated with an actuated microscale stage. RF (100 MHz to 20 GHz) admittance measurements

Accelerated Stress Test Assessment of Through-Silicon Vias Using RF Signals

June 1, 2013
Author(s)
Chukwudi A. Okoro, Pavel Kabos, Jan Obrzut, Klaus Hummler, Yaw S. Obeng
In this work, radio frequency (RF) signal is demonstrated as an effective metrology tool for the assessment of the effect of thermal cycling on the reliability of through-silicon via (TSV) stacked dies. It was found that RF signal integrity of TSV daisy

Use of RF-Based Technique as a Metrology Tool for TSV Reliability Analysis

May 28, 2013
Author(s)
Chukwudi A. Okoro, Yaw S. Obeng, Jan Obrzut, Pavel Kabos, Klaus Hummler
In this work, we used radio frequency (RF) based measurement technique is used as a prognostic tool for the assessment of the effect of thermal cycling on the reliability of through-silicon via (TSV) stacked dies. It was found that RF signal integrity in

MIMO Capacity in 2-D and 3-D Isotropic Environments

May 21, 2013
Author(s)
Ryan J. Pirkl, Catherine A. Remley
We analyze the distribution of MIMO channel capacity for different antennas in 2-D and 3-D statistically isotropic environments. These represent possible test environments that may be generated by multi-probe anechoic and reverberation chambers

NIST Handbook 150-11, NVLAP Electromagnetic Compatibility and Telecommunications

April 25, 2013
Author(s)
Bethany E. Hackett, Bradley Moore, Dennis G. Camell
NIST Handbook 150-11, NVLAP Electromagnetic Compatibility and Telecommunications, presents the technical requirements and guidance for the accreditation of laboratories under the NVLAP Electromagnetic Compatibility and Telecommunications (ECT) LAP. It is
