A Compact Variable-Temperature Broadband Series-Resistor Calibration

January 1, 2011
Author(s)
Nathan D. Orloff, Jordi Mateu, Arkadiusz C. Lewandowski, Eduard Rocas, Joshua P. King, Dazhen Gu, Juan C. Collado Gomez, Ichiro Takeuchi, Xiaoli Lu, James C. Booth
We present a method to obtain a broadband on wafer calibration from 45 MHz to 40 GHz for variable temperature, which requires three standards: a thru-reflect, and series-resistor. The maximum error of this technique compared to a benchmark 9 standard

Superconducting multiplexer filter bank for a frequency-selective power limiter

December 23, 2010
Author(s)
Eduard Rocas, Alberto Padilla, Jordi Mateu, Juan C. Collado Gomez, James C. Booth, Juan M. O'Callaghan
This work proposes a superconducting multiplexer filter bank configuration to be used as a frequency-selective power limiter. The proposed configuration limits narrowband high power signals without degrading the signal performance in the remainder

Modeling of Self-Heating Mechanism in the Design of Superconducting Limiters

December 10, 2010
Author(s)
Eduard Rocas, Juan C. Collado Gomez, Jordi Mateu, Nathan D. Orloff, James C. Booth
This work proposes a modeling method to simulate how temperature rise, due to power dissipation, affects the performance of a HTS limiter. The spatial temperature rise distribution across and along a HTS transmission line is determined by heat generation

Using Microfluidic Channels to Determine ZThe Quantitative Permittivity of Nanoliter Fluid Volumes from 50 MHz TO 40 GHz USING MICROFLUIDIC CHANNELS TO DETERMINE THE QUANTITATIVE PERMITTIVITY OF NANOLITER FLUID VOLUMES FROM 50 MHZ TO 40 GHZ

July 30, 2010

James C. Booth, Nathan D. Orloff, Xiaoli Lu, Yu Y. Wang, Eduard Rocas, Jordi Mateu, Juan C. Collado Gomez, Michael D. Janezic
We describe the development of coplanar waveguide measurement structures integrated with microfluidic channels in order to rapidly determine the broadband dielectric properties of nanoliter volumes of fluids, fluid mixtures, and colloids over the range of

Temperature-dependent dielectric relaxation in bismuch zinc niobate thin films.

July 12, 2010
Author(s)
James C. Booth, Nathan D. Orloff, Joel Cagnon, Jiwei Lu, Susanne Stemmer
We apply broadband measurement techniques to determine the dielectric permittivity of Bi1.5Zn1.0Nb1.5O7 (BZN) thin films over the frequency range 1 kHz to 40 GHz. At room temperature, the permittivity function shows relaxation at high frequencies (1 GHz)

Third-Order Intermodulation Distortion due to Self-heating in Gold Coplanar Waveguides

May 23, 2010
Author(s)
Eduard Rocas, Juan C. Collado Gomez, Nathan D. Orloff, James C. Booth
We present measurements and modeling of a self-heating mechanism responsible for third order intermodulation distortion in coplanar waveguide transmission lines. Temperature fluctuations, at the envelope frequency of the input signal, induce dynamic

Unified Model for Bulk Acoustic Wave Resonators’ Nonlinear Effects

September 20, 2009
Author(s)
Eduard Rocas, Juan C. Collado Gomez, James C. Booth, Enrique Iborra, Robert Aigner
We present a nonlinear model for Bulk Acoustic Wave resonators that combines different sources of nonlinearity, using device-independent material specific parameters, to predict the intermodulation and harmonics generation. The actual model accounts for

DESIGN, FABRICATION, AND ASSEMBLY OF A HOLLOW-CORE FIBER-BASED MICRO CRYOGENIC COOLER

June 21, 2009

James C. Booth, Mu Hong Lin, Peter E. Bradley, H.-j Wu, Ray Radebaugh, Y.C. Lee
One of the smallest Joule Thomson (J-T) micro cryogenic coolers (MCC) utilizing a hollow-core fiberbased heat exchanger (HX) is designed, fabricated, assembled and tested. Techniques that control mask material etching are developed to fabricate a multi
