• Tb/s superchannels for optical communications 

  Kaur, Amandeep (University College Cork, 2020-09-01)

  The exponential growth of data traffic has motivated the researchers to find the transmission technologies which can offer high capacity transmission with high spectral efficiency (SE) at economical cost. The next-generation ...
• Investigation and design of key circuit blocks in a 10 bit SAR ADC at 100 MS/s 

  O'Sullivan, Gerald (University College Cork, 2020-07-10)

  The work in this thesis is based on the investigation and design of key circuit blocks in a high speed, high resolution SAR ADC in TSMC’s 28nm technology. The research carried out analyses the circuit limitations of the ...
• Computing policy parameters for stochastic inventory control using stochastic dynamic programming approaches 

  Visentin, Andrea (University College Cork, 2020-08-29)

  The objective of this work is to introduce techniques for the computation of optimal and near-optimal inventory control policy parameters for the stochastic inventory control problem under Scarf’s setting. A common aspect ...
• Conformal and non-destructive doping towards gate-all-around nanowire devices 

  Meaney, Fintan (University College Cork, 2020-09-01)

  Due to the approach of fundamental 2D topological limits, scaling of silicon transistors towards GAA devices will be required. This thesis will discuss why continued scaling towards GAA devices will require novel doping ...
• Electronic excitation and atomic forces in optically excited group V semimetals 

  O'Mahony, Shane M. (University College Cork, 2020-09-02)

  The main focus of this work is to investigate how electronic excitation changes the forces between atoms in materials, causing large amplitude collective atomic motion, referred to as coherent phonon motion. The recent ...
