Power-efficient Near-field Focusing for Upcoming 6G MIMO Networks
An accurate and efficient near-field intensity shaping method is proposed, capable of reproducing sharp patterns while simplifying the design requirements of the array’s feeding network. The shaping problem is tackled by an efficient far-to-near-field transform, based on a spherical Fourier
Analysis of Electrostatically Induced Interconnect Structures in Single-Layer Graphene via a Conservative First-Principles Modeling Technique
Electrostatically induced interconnect structures in graphene are an alluring alternative for nanoribbons to be used in future integrated circuits (ICs) because of the avoidance of edge scattering. In this contribution, these structures are analyzed using a novel first-principles modeling approach,
Fokas Based Dirichlet-to-Neumann Operators for Accurate Signal Integrity Assessment of Interconnects
In this contribution, we present a new approach to fully characterize interconnects composed out of arbitrary polygonal cross-sections and containing piecewise homogeneous material parameters. The complex per-unit-of-length inductance and capacitance matrices are obtained through the application of pertinent Dirichlet-to-Neumann operators,
Solving the Fully Coupled Time-Dependent Maxwell-Dirac System: A Second-Order Accurate Numerical Scheme
Owing to their increased carrier velocities, Dirac materials have become a promising option for the integration into nanoelectronics. However, without the aid of simulation software that is able to accurately describe the behavior of these materials, the fabrication of novel
An ADHIE-TDDFT Method for the EM/QM Co-simulation of Coupled 1-D Nanowires
Over the past years, the rapid increase in device functionality and miniaturization has stimulated the demand for novel topologies and materials. One such trend is the emergence of one-dimensional nanostructures in electronic components. Given the embryonic stage of these applications,
Efficient Characterization of Interconnects with Arbitrary Polygonal Cross-sections using Fokas-derived Dirichlet-to-Neumann Operators
A novel technique to accurately characterize interconnects with general, piecewise homogeneous material parameters and arbitrary polygonal cross-sections is presented. To compute the per-unit-of-length complex inductance and capacitance matrices of the considered structures, we apply a boundary integral equation framework, invoking
