This study discusses the characteristics of the resonant and non-resonant inductive power transfer (IPT) systems based on planar spiral coils. The transfer function and frequency response of the resonant and non-resonant IPT systems are derived. The experimental results under varied air gap, load, and input voltage are presented to validate the performances of the resonant and non-resonant IPT systems...
In this article, we demonstrate plasma-enhanced atomic layer deposition (PEALD) as an effective passivation technique to establish high interfacial quality of high-k/InGaAs structures. Performing PEALD-AlN as an interfacial passivation layer (IPL), excellent capacitance-voltage (C-V) characteristics have been achieved for the HfO2/n, p-In0.53Ga0.47As MOSCAPs. The effects of AlN-IPL on the effective...
The availability of relative location of nearby vehicles is critical in providing safety alerts to the drivers and enhancing driving experience. However, most of wireless localization techniques either fail to provide sufficient accuracy to identify the relative vehicle positioning or require expensive hardware to achieve high accuracy. To resolve this issue, in this paper we propose E-V relative...
In situ PEALD processes, including PEALD-AlN pre-gate and post-gate plasma gas treatments, have been studied as a promising passivation method to realize the high interfacial quality of high-k/III-V structures. The formation of excellent dielectric gate stack has been obtained on the HfO2/n, p-In0.53Ga0.47As MOSCAPs by inserting an AlN interfacial layer. The improvements on the electrical properties...
Performance bugs are programming errors that slow down program execution. While existing techniques can detect various types of performance bugs, a crucial and practical aspect of performance bugs has not received the attention it deserves: how likely are developers to fix a performance bug? In practice, fixing a performance bug can have both benefits and drawbacks, and developers fix a performance...
High mobility InxGa1−xAs material is one of the most promising candidates as channel material for post CMOS device applications. In this presentation, InxGa1−xAs material based MOS capacitors will be studied for possible applications for future III-V MOSFET, TFET and FINFET devices. To improve the gate leakage of the InxGa1−xAs MOSCAP, the combination of wet chemical treatment and in-situ trimethyl...
Efficient data hiding algorithms have been developed for video coders such as MPEG-4 and H.264/AVC, to deliver embedded information. Lin et al. proposed an error propagation free discrete cosine transform (DCT) based data hiding algorithm in H.264/AVC intra-coded frames. However, the state-of-the-art video codec, high efficiency video coding (HEVC), adopts both DCT and discrete sine transform (DST)...
The DIBR technique generates a 3-D perception through a 2-D color and a depth map sequences. Compressing depth map sequence is necessary for storage and transmission considerations. However, the tradeoff between bit rate reduction and quality degradation from compression should be addressed. We propose a bit rate-saving intra coding scheme which modifies, prior to compression, each depth map to minimize...
A full system emulator, such as QEMU, can provide a versatile virtual platform for software development. However, most current system simulators do not have sufficient support for multi-processor emulations to effectively utilize the underlying parallelism presented by today's multi-core processors. In this paper, we focus on parallelizing a system emulator and implement a prototype parallel emulator...
In demand of more computing power and less energy use, multiprocessor with power management facility emerges in embedded system design. Dynamic voltage scaling is such a facility that varies clock speed and supply voltage to save more energy. In this paper, we propose ETAHM to allocate tasks on a target multiprocessor system. In pursuit of global optimal solution, it mixes task scheduling, mapping...
