Christopher Grinde
Vestfold University College, Norway
February 10, 2009 | 12:00 to 01:00 | 521 Cory Hall, Hogan Room
Host: Al Pisano
Christopher will discuss his dissertation project, part of which is being concluded at BSAC: to establish models, and to design and fabricate vertically stacked coupled disk resonators. The motivation is to enable monolithic RF transceivers with a minimum diesize. Two fabrication methods are to be explored: one using surface micromachining using polysilicon structural layers, and one using SOI wafers with two device layers. To compensate for variations in processing and materials, a control algorithm actively controlling the quality factor will also be developed. The goal of the first phase of the project is to manufacture two pole RF filters operating at 150 MHz.
