CMOS Single Photon Avalanche Photodiodes and Digital Control Interface for Lab-on-Chip DNA Analysis Systems
DownloadSpring 2015
BioMEMS focuses on microelectromechanical systems for biological, or biomedical applications. Combining BioMEMS and CMOS allows highly integrated, complex analysis devices to be realized. One application of particular interest, is medical diagnostic testing. The overall goal of the...

Spring 2014
Holographic data storage (HDS) is an emerging data storage technology that has received attention due to a high theoretical data capacity, fast readout times, and a potentially long lifetime of the recording materials. The work presented in this thesis was undertaken to solve one of the technical...

Fall 2011
Collaborative Beamforming (CB) has been introduced in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) context as a long-distance and power-efficient communication scheme. One challenge for CB is the randomness of sensor node locations where different network realizations result in different CB beampatterns....

Fall 2023
Near-infrared (NIR) light detection underpins various applications such as night vision, healthcare imaging and optical communications. While commercial silicon-based photodetector is transparent to wavelengths that are longer than about 1100 nm due to the absorption cut-off of silicon (Si), lead...

Spring 2020
Compared to human vision, dynamic range (DR) is a limiting factor for modern cameras. While conventional complementary metal-oxide-semiconductor (CMOS) image sensors are limited in their ability to capture DR, nonlinear CMOS image sensors, e.g., with logarithmic (log) or linear-logarithmic...

Combined Photoacoustic and Doppler Ultrasound Imaging for Tissue Oxygen Consumption Estimation
DownloadFall 2019
Oxygen is the substrate that cells use in the greatest quantity and upon which aerobic metabolism and cell integrity depend. Continuous and sufficient supply of oxygen is necessary to maintain normal cellular aerobic metabolism. Failure of oxygen supply to meet metabolic needs is a common feature...

Spring 2023
There has been a renewed interest in commonsense as a stepping stone toward achieving human-level intelligence. By digesting enormous amounts of data in different forms, such as visual, lingual, and sensory, humans are able to create a world model for themselves. It is hypothesized that this...
