Lu, Xiaolin (Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1993)The source laser's relative intensity noise (RIN) and intermodulation distortion (IMD) are two very important system design considerations in fiber optic communication systems, especially in subcarrier multiplexed (SCM) ...
-
Hsieh, Lung-Hwa (Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)Microstrip ring circuits have been extensively studied in the past three decades. A magnetic-wall model has been commonly used to analyze these circuits. Unlike the conventional magnetic-wall model, a simple transmission-line ...
-
Maier, Eric William (Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)A distributed fiber optic intrusion sensor capable of detecting intruders from the pressure of their weight on the earth's surface was investigated in the laboratory and in field tests. The presence of an intruder above ...
-
Wang, Miao (2010-10-12)Nanochannel devices have been explored over the years with wide applications in bio/chemical analysis. With a dimension comparable to many bio-samples, such as proteins, viruses and DNA, nanochannels can be used as a ...
-
Lee, Tao Hua (2012-02-14)Excitonic photovoltaic devices, including organic, hybrid organic/inorganic, and dye-sensitized solar cells, are attractive alternatives to conventional inorganic solar cells due to their potential for low cost and low ...
-
Lan, Ching Fu (Texas A&M University, 2006-04-12)In ShannonÂs seminal paper, ÂA Mathematical Theory of CommunicationÂ, he defined ÂChannel Capacity which predicted the ultimate performance that transmission systems can achieve and suggested that capacity is ...

Hou, Huijie (2012-02-14)Microbial fuel cells (MFCs) are novel green technologies that convert chemical energy stored in biomass into electricity through microbial metabolisms. Both fossil fuel depletion and environmental concern have fostered ...
-
Juarez, Juan C. (2009-06-02)A distributed sensor using an optical fiber for detecting and locating intruders over long perimeters (>10 km) is described. Phase changes resulting from either the pressure of the intruder on the ground immediately above ...
-
Malik, Bilal Hameed (2012-02-14)Clinical guidelines dictate that frequent blood glucose monitoring in diabetic patients is critical towards proper management of the disease. Although, several different types of glucose monitors are now commercially ...
-
Han, Chul Min (Texas A&M University, 2006-10-30)In recent years there has been a growing demand for reduced mass, small launch volume, and, at the same time, high-gain large-aperture antenna systems in modern space-borne applications. This dissertation introduces new ...
-
Antoine, Arthur L. (2010-07-14)Structural designs barely consider the dynamic scenario of a well-developed impinging wave hitting the structure. The usual area of focus is on static and stability factors (e.g. drag, inertia, resistive forces related to ...
-
Malik, Bilal Hameed (2009-06-02)A tunable erbium-doped fiber ring laser using an intra-cavity Fabry-Perot filter as the tuning element is investigated. Tuning is achieved by varying the applied voltage which controls the FP cavity length. The laser's ...
-
Yoo, Tae-Whan (Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1993)35 GHz power conversion receivers were developed through theoretical analyses and experiments. The theoretical analyses included the derivation o f a mathematical model for conversion efficiency, the calculation o f diode ...
-
Kuppuswamy, Harini (Texas A&M University, 2006-04-12)A distributed fiber optic sensor with the ability of detecting and locating intruders on foot and vehicles over long perimeters (>10 km) was studied. The response of the sensor to people walking over or near it and to ...
-
Lim, Ho Joon (2011-10-21)A new measurement technique called fiber optic reflectometer (FOR) was developed to investigate multiphase flows. The principle and setup of the FOR technique were introduced and applied to various experiments. Based on ...
-
Ghatak-Roy, Amiya R. (Texas A&M University. Libraries, 1994)For sub-0.5 $mu$m feature sizes in VLSI circuits, Ion Projection Lithography shows good promise. One of the key components for this type of lithography is the availability of a suitable mask. Present work involved the ...
-
Deotare, Parag Bhaskar (2009-05-15)A new fabrication process of organic and inorganic nanoparticles and cups by electrospraying blended polymer-sol-gel solutions followed by calcination has been investigated. Because of low viscosity and high surface tension ...
