Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sub-terahertz (THz) frequency bands, covering approximately 100 GHz - 600 GHz of the electromagnetic spectrum, and many uses such as in short range radars, spectrometers for detection of chemicals, electromagnetic imaging for medical applications (T-Ray) and detection of concealed weapons. This region which lies in between the microwave region and the infrared region has been in the focus amongst the scientists and researchers for quite a long time due to its wide range of applications. The idea to use this spectrum in silicon was very much appreciated in the industry as well as in academia. We have systems that do exist for such applications but at a very discrete level and far from everyday use. So, the idea that we introduced through this project is to bring such a system (Gas Spectrometer) on complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) chip level, which can later be integrated in a device such as our mobile handset. Being a very complex project, it was divided into three main focus areas of research, the signal generation, the transmitter, the antenna and the receiver. We focused on the design of the receiver part. Spectrometers working in the sub-THz frequency can be used to identify different chemicals based on their response to incident electromagnetic waves. Different chemical species respond to electromagnetic waves uniquely, undergoing rotational and vibrational transitions at different frequencies. A spectrometer can detect these transitions by transmitting a series of tones at incremental frequency steps and analyzing the transmitted waveform. In the case of absorption spectroscopy, typical at sub-THz regimes, the chemical absorbs at certain frequencies and the transmitted waveform has the spectral fingerprint of the chemical. In our portion of the project, it is these fingerprints that we have tried to detect and implement the system through a CMOS based receiver. Spectrometer receiver system analysis and the sub-harmonic mixer design were the primary focus of our research. Due to its very wide band frequency requirement, we faced quite a challenge with the design of the sub-harmonic mixer. To prove the concept of sub-harmonic mixer, we taped-out our design first as a test chip and then implemented the idea in a receiver chain. The test chip results show mixer conversion loss of almost 26 dB in a 20 GHz of bandwidth. This is reported to be the first working CMOS sub-harmonic mixer at millimeter wave frequencies. An effort was made to improve its performance in 65nm CMOS process and a complete on chip receiver solution is provided.

Book Synopsis Pushing CMOS Limits for Broadband Signal Generation at Millimeter Wave and Terahertz Frequencies by : Muhammad Adnan
Download or read book Pushing CMOS Limits for Broadband Signal Generation at Millimeter Wave and Terahertz Frequencies written by Muhammad Adnan and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Applications at frequencies ranging from sub-millimeter wave to THz (100GHz to 1THz) are gaining a lot of attention. High frequencies can be employed for submillimeter wave astronomy in the field of heterodyne spectroscopy, sensing and imaging for security and detection of concealed weapons and explosives. Because of the lower fmax of solid state active devices, scaling of low frequency electronics to high frequencies is very challenging. At the same time, it is very difficult to make efficient semiconductor lasers of wavelength lower than 30[MICRO SIGN]m. Because of the dearth of high power and tunable sources at these frequencies, this part of spectrum is usually called "THz gap". Over the past few years, tremendous effort has been made towards solid-state THz sources. The world is looking for CMOS solutions to this problem because of the low cost of fabrication and ease of integration. The challenge in CMOS is low quality factor of passives, lossy substrate and limited fmax of the transistors which is still under 300GHz. To overcome these challenges two kinds of signal generation techniques at high frequencies are employed. 1) Frequency multiplication. 2) Collecting higher order harmonics from the fundamental VCO. Owing to these two signal generation technique, my research has been focused on both frequency multipliers and oscillators. In recent literature, few high frequency oscillators works are reported. However the major challenge has been to achieve high power and high tunability both at the same time with decent DC-RF efficiency. Since higher harmonic power is strongly dependent on the fundamental power, I have decomposed this problem in to two parts. 1) Coming up with a VCO topology that is capable of providing high tunability along with high power and DC-RF efficiency at fundamental frequency. 2) Efficiently extracting harmonics from the VCO without affecting operation at fundamental frequency. First two chapters discusses our work on these two parts. In chapter 1, a loop of unidirectionally coupled oscillators to demonstrate high tuning range and output power is proposed. To achieve large tuning range, two different tuning mechanisms are simultaneously exploited. First each core oscillator is tuned using a variable capacitor. Next, by controlling the phase/delay between the coupled oscillators, the entire loop dynamics and hence its frequency is tuned. In this work, we analyze a loop of "n" coupled oscillators using Adler's equation and derive the expression for the maximum tuning range. Perturbation analysis is used to study the stability conditions of the loop of coupled system. Activity condition from two port theory is also employed to squeeze maximum power out of active devices. The proposed system is designed and implemented using four coupled Colpitts VCOs in a 65nm bulk CMOS process. The VCO achieves continuous tuning range of 9.5% at the center frequency of 105GHz with the peak output power of 2.8mW. The circuit consumes 54mW from a 1.2V supply. To the best of our knowledge, this VCO has the highest output power and tuning range among all the CMOS oscillators at or above 100GHz. In chapter 2, we employ a loop of unidirectionally coupled harmonic oscillators. To accomplish large tunability, tuning via variable capacitance and via variable coupling delay between oscillators are simultaneously exploited. A large fundamental power to produce high second harmonic is generated using activity condition of the transistors derived through two port theory. All the undesired leakage of second harmonic current is blocked thus extracting maximum power at the output. A passive coupling between VCOs is employed to enhance DC-RF efficiency. Each oscillator is realized with modified self-feeding Colpitts architecture. To demonstrate our methodology, a two stage and an eight stage second harmonic VCOs are designed and fabricated in a 65nm bulk CMOS process. The 2-stage and 8-stage VCO achieves maximum power of -2.1dBm and 3.7dBm with DC-RF efficiency of 0.9% and 0.8%. Both VCO achieve tuning range of 8.6% at 260GHz. The two stage and eight stage VCO consume 198mA and 49mA from a 1.2V DC supply. To the best of our knowledge, these VCOs have the highest output power, tuning range and DC-RF efficiency among all the CMOS oscillators at or above 0.25THz. Chapter 3 and 4 deal with the frequency multipliers. Our research on frequency multipliers is focused on passive nonlinear transmission line (NLTL) based structures. In chapter 3, we develop a methodology of phase matching using bandgap transmission lines between the fundamental input and higher harmonics . We demonstrate the proposed methodology using a board level prototype that produces second harmonic with conversion loss of 5.5dB. Chapter 4 extends the concept proposed in chapter 3 for implementation in CMOS. Two methodologies are developed to go beyond the limitations of multipliers: i) we used bandgap structure to resolve dispersion which is inherently present in any discrete wave propagating structure. ii) in order to enhance conversion loss performance and relax input power requirement, we employ a resonator approach in combination with active loading. We build two prototypes: a 20GHz frequency doubler is implemented in a 65nm process as a proof of concept, second to show the feasibility of our approach near fmax, a 100GHz frequency tripler is implemented in a 130nm process. The achieved conversion loss is 3.5dB for doubler and 12.2dB in case of tripler. Both structures take single ended input and generate differential output. The frequency tripler can generate maximum power better than -1.5dBm. The relative bandwidth of doubler and tripler is about 23% and 12.3%. The frequency tripler outperforms any previously reported work in terms of output power and 3dB bandwidth at the same technology node.

This book was released on 2013 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Local Oscillator (LO) signal is used for frequency translation and channel selection in a transceiver. The frequency of the LO is maintained constant by a Phase-Locked Loop (PLL). This dissertation demonstrates a technique for the on-chip integration of millimeter-wave (mm-Wave) PLL in Complementary Metal-Oxide Semiconductor (CMOS) using sub-harmonic injection locking, wherein a low-frequency PLL drives an injection locked oscillator (ILO) operating at a higher harmonic. This simplifies the divider design in the PLL and achieves lower power consumption. Traditionally, sub-TeraHertz (THz) electronics have been designed using III-V semiconductors. With scaling of CMOS technology and consequent increase in their peak-ft and peak-fMAX , coupled with the ease of integration with mixed-signal/digital circuits, there have been recent developments in the mm-Wave and THz circuits in CMOS. Challenges with deep sub-micron CMOS implementation include implementation of passives, operating with lower power supplies, achieving higher output powers for the signal, and achieving good phase noise performance. A 100 GHz ILO is implemented in a commercial 65 nm CMOS process. The design can be adapted to generate other THz frequencies. Measured results of the 100 GHz ILO is shown. The measured self-oscillation frequency of the ILO is 103.81 GHz. This can be tuned using a varactor and/or by changing the tail bias. The measured output frequency range of the ILO is 99.9-103.81 GHz. Phase noise estimated from locked spectrum is -70 dBc/Hz at 10 MHz offset. The power consumption is 12 mW, and area is 0.08 mm 2 . The ILO driven with a sub-harmonic injection locked PLL, in a low power mm-Wave and THz phased-array systems, eliminates the high frequency divider in the PLL and lends itself to easy frequency scaling. PLL parameters for a 100 GHz imaging system using the sub-harmonic injection locked PLL is derived. This topology can lead to significant power reduction in an n x n multi-receiver system: reducing the power by 20 % per receiver, the number of high-frequency PLLs by n2 - 1, and obviates the rail-to-rail routing of multi-GHz local oscillator (LO) signal across the chip. Patterned ground shield inductor fabricated in digital 45 nm CMOS, yielding quality factor improvement at mm-Wave/sub-THz frequencies, is also shown.

This book was released on 2016-10-27 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A variety of commercial and defense applications are expected to have sub-terahertz (THz) and mm-wave integrated circuits in the near future. Silicon (Si) technologies partly meet the demands but are limited in their power handling capability. III-V technologies, in particular InP, offer higher output power but fall short of their Si counterparts if it comes to integration density and complexity. Thus, research on hetero-integration of Si with InP has gained increasing interest. This work focuses on MMIC signal sources as important building blocks that are based on FBH’s 0.8 μm InP-DHBT transferred-substrate (TS) process, offering an InP-DHBT as well as an InP-on-BiCMOS version. This process is unique and provides interesting possibilities to realize integrated circuits in the frequency range between 100 GHz and more than 300 GHz. First, fundamental sources at 96 GHz and 197 GHz are presented. They deliver +9 dBm and 0 dBm output power with 25% and 0.5% overall DC-to-RF efficiency, respectively. Furthermore, 162 GHz and 270 GHz push-push sources are demonstrated utilizing an InP-on-BiCMOS process, which achieve -4.5 dBm and -9.5 dBm output power. Subsequently, multiplier-based signal sources are demonstrated including a full G-band (140-220 GHz) frequency doubler, which delivers +8.2 dBm at 180 GHz and more than +5 dBm in the range 160-200 GHz. The doubler circuit exhibits a power efficiency of 16% in this frequency range. Also, the highest frequency is reached by a wideband 328 GHz quadrupler, with -7 dBm output power at 325 GHz and 0.5% DC-to-RF efficiency. The final part is devoted to hetero-integrated circuits and the necessary design considerations. Two 250 GHz and 330 GHz sources are demonstrated that deliver -1.6 dBm and -12 dBm output power, respectively. These are the first hetero-integrated signal sources in this frequency range reported so far.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The terahertz frequency spectrum is gaining increasing interest due to its intriguing applications in molecular spectroscopy, imaging, and sensing. This band though very useful has been one of the hardest to access within the electromagnetic spectrum because of the limitations of both optics and electronics. In this work, we look into some of the most challenging electronic functions that will pave the way toward the realization of an ultra-high speed integrated system in this band. Our goal is to replace the expensive and bulky solutions in this frequency band with cheap and versatile CMOS circuits. As far as signal generation in concerned, one of the major bottlenecks for terahertz electronics is the limited achievable power with conventional electronic sources. To address this challenge, we propose signal generation solutions with power levels that are significantly beyond the limit of conventional designs. In order to do so, we investigate the general theory of nonlinear dynamics and seek sophisticated oscillatory systems that are highly effective for high frequency electronic sources. We present prototypes of these terahertz sources which show 4 orders of magnitude improvement compared to previous designs. The presented methods are highly scalable and can be applied to generate even higher output power levels on the same process, or significantly higher power levels using compound semiconductors. Furthermore, the other side of any transmission system in the mm-wave and sub-mm-wave frequency range is a wideband analog signal processing block. Next, in this work we find novel solutions for challenges in wideband analog processing. We present the Electrical Interferometer as an energy efficient method for analog signal detection above 10 GHz. This structure is based on wave interference in a passive electric media and is a high speed and energy efficient method for detecting and quantizing a wideband signal. Furthermore, we propose the delay-line based data converter for GHz range data conversion. This scalable structure exploits the small time resolution on CMOS for low-power and high-speed data conversion.
