Broadband Impedance Response Extraction of On-Chip Interdigital Capacitors using a 3-D DSA Operator for Piecewise Homogeneous Structures
In this contribution, an enhanced 3-D differential surface admittance operator is proposed, facilitating accurate modeling of piecewise homogeneous cuboidal objects. By exploiting the analytical properties of entire-domain basis functions, material interfaces are effectively eliminated from the formulation, leading to a
Broadband Electromagnetic Modeling of On-Chip Passives Using a Differential Surface Admittance Operator for 3-D Piecewise Homogeneous Structures
Accurate modeling of on-chip passive components is vital for reliable integrated circuit (IC) design. However, this is non-trivial due to the inherent heterogeneity of the structures and the wide range of material parameters involved. In this work, we present a
Spectral Bayesian Optimization Using a Physics-Informed Rational Szegö Kernel for Microwave Design
Microwave device design increasingly relies on surrogate modeling to accelerate optimization and reduce costly electromagnetic (EM) simulations. This paper presents a spectral Bayesian optimization (SBO) framework leveraging a physicsinformed Gaussian process (GP) with a rational complex-valued Szegö kernel and input
Modeling of ac quantum transport through imperfect carbon nanotube interconnects by means of nonequilibrium Green’s functions
Because of their long mean free path and superior current-carrying capabilities, carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are considered as an alternative for Cu in future interconnects. To simulate their dynamical properties, a linear equivalent-circuit model is usually invoked containing, among other things,
A semi‑classical Floquet‑NEGF approach to model photon‑assisted tunneling in quantum well devices
The non-equilibrium Green’s function formalism is often employed to model photon-assisted tunneling processes in opto-electronic quantum well devices. For this purpose, self-consistent schemes based on a quantum electrodynamical description of light–matter interactions have been proposed before. However, these schemes are
Analytic Differential Admittance Operator for Tangential Dipole Illumination of a Dielectric Sphere
In this paper, the exact differential surface admittance (DSA) operator for scattering analysis of a homogeneous dielectric sphere is constructed. By utilizing two sets of orthogonal vector spherical harmonics as the basis functions for a Galerkin Method of Moments, the
