Stiffness Trimming of High Q MEMS Clocks and Oscillators
  • High resolution stiffness trimming of high-Q Lame mode silicon resonators
  • Stable frequency characteristics of Ge-coated Si resonators at high processing temperatures
  • Achieves trimming without introducing any damping throughout process
7184
Methods for Sensing Wearouts of Electronic Circuits
  • Circuit details are taken into account in estimating lifetime
  • Wearout methods can be used to determine “timing closure” at 10 years lifetime
  • Methods serve as foundation for a new electronic design automation tool for “timing closure”
7145
Non-contact vital sign detection
  • Automatically adjusts the feedback signals to suppress the noise when the measurement environment changes
  • Improves SNR by 50% at 50 cm when compared to an unlocked system
  • Detects heartbeat at 250 cm, more than twice the distance of the unlocked system
7064
Ultra-Compact, Low-Power THz Radio
  • A THz fully integrated super-harmonic (2nd harmonic) regenerative receiver architecture, which detects the incoming THz signals and injection-locks to a regenerative receiver operating at a lower frequency
  • Reduces power consumption and improves the efficiency for THz signal generations
  • Employs a bidirectional and circuit-sharing architecture, so the THz receiver and the THz transmitter share the same oscillator operating at half the frequency
7053
Stretchable Electronic Materials and Devices
  • Process is a readily implemented approach
  • Films can be stretched by 100% with retention of their high charge carrier mobility
  • Fabrication can be done with commercially available materials
7612
Sol-Gel Films and High Energy Capacitor Device
  • Sol-gel materials are a targeted research area for thin film energy storage and enhanced storage capabilities for wide variety of applications
  • All solution-processing including ready-to-spin recipes
  • Compatible with flexible substrates and roll-to-roll processing
6993
3D Printed Auxetic Scaffolds for Tissue Engineering
  • Faster cell growth rate- decreases average cell age in the finished product and increases vitality
  • Affordable and timely approach for regenerating tissues and replacing native tissues
  • Continuous entry and circulation of nutrients results in less variability between cells
7335
Motor Function Recovery System for Stroke Patients
  • Unconventional: Passive stimulation unlike traditional therapy or rehabilitation
  • Tactile: No electrostimulation, more comfortable to patients
  • Convenient: Little to no effort/attention required
