Beyond Scaling : Physics and Modeling for Pushing the Frontiers of Low-Power Devices

Luca De Michielis

Over the recent decades, the balance between increasing the complexity of computer chips and simultaneously reducing cost per bit has been accommodated by down-scaling. While extremely successful in the past, this approach now faces grave limitations leadi ...

Active Self-Switching Methods for Emerging Monolithic Bidirectional Switches Applied to Diode-Less Converters

Alfred Rufer, Daniel Siemaszko

This paper presents a recently introduced switching principle for emerging monolithic bidirectional devices. Based on the hypothesis that those switches may overcome conventional diode type solutions in power converters, an active self-switching process be ...

Enhanced spontaneous emission in a photonic-crystal light-emitting diode

Laurent Balet, Blandine Alloing

We report direct evidence of enhanced spontaneous emission in a photonic-crystal (PhC) light-emitting diode. The device consists of p-i-n heterojunction embedded in a suspended membrane, comprising a layer of self-assembled quantum dots. Current is injecte ...

Non-Linear Properties and Efficiency Improvements of a Bi-Directional Isolated DC-AC Converter with Soft Commutation

Alfred Rufer, Christophe Chabert

This paper presents the operation principle and the properties of a single-phase DC-AC converter with medium frequency transformer and soft commutation. The influence of the non-dissipative snubber capacitor and the transformer parasitic components for ZVS ...
