Step-down DC/DC converter
BackgroundThe 48V power architecture is one of the more recently introduced architecture to improve computer power supply efficiency. However, conversion from 48V to 12V or down to ~1V needed by the CPU is a grand challenge. Efficiency and footprint are the key drivers as the converter is placed on the motherboard. Previous methods include Buck, Switch...

Ultra thin IR detector
BackgroundStrained layer superlattices (SLSs) have attracted significant attention as potential light absorbers for infrared (IR) photodetector applications. Such semiconductor-based structures provide effective band gaps across mid-wave to long-wave IR that are tunable by control of layer thicknesses and material composition. Of particular interest...
