Implementing 802.11 with Microcontrollers: Wireless Networking for Embedded Systems Designers (Embedded Technology)
by Fred Eady
Wireless networking is poised to have a massive impact on communications, and the 802.11 standard is to wireless networking what Ethernet is to wired networking. There are already over 50 million devices using the dominant IEEE 802.11 (essentially wireless Ethernet) standard, with astronomical growth predicted over the next 10 years. New applications are emerging every day, with wireless capability being embedded in everything from electric meters to hospital patient tracking systems to security...
Introduction To Pulsed Electric Field Technology
Micro Electro Mechanical System Design (Mechanical Engineering)
by James J Allen
It is challenging at best to find a resource that provides the breadth of information necessary to develop a successful micro electro mechanical system (MEMS) design. Micro Electro Mechanical System Design is that resource. It is a comprehensive, single-source guide that explains the design process by illustrating the full range of issues involved,
1997 International Symposium on Microelectronic
Currently strain engineering is the main technique used to enhance the performance of advanced silicon-based metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFETs). Written from an engineering application standpoint, Strain-Engineered MOSFETs introduces promising strain techniques to fabricate strain-engineered MOSFETs and to methods to assess the applications of these techniques. The book provides the background and physical insight needed to understand new and future developments in the...
This might be the first book that deals mostly with the 3D technology computer-aided design (TCAD) simulations of major state-of-the-art stress- and strain-engineered advanced semiconductor devices: MOSFETs, BJTs, HBTs, nonclassical MOS devices, finFETs, silicon-germanium hetero-FETs, solar cells, power devices, and memory devices. The book focuses on how to set up 3D TCAD simulation tools, from mask layout to process and device simulation, including design for manufacturing (DFM), and from devi...
Does MEMS technology offer advantages to your company's products?

Debugging Embedded Microprocessor Systems provides techniques for engineers, technicians, and students who need to correct design faults in embedded systems. Using real-world scenarios, designers can learn practical, time-saving ways to avoid and repair potentially costly problems. Prevention is stressed. In this book, the author addresses hardware and software issues, including up-front design techniques to prevent bugs and contain design creep. Practical advice includes descriptions of commo...
Introduction to Nanotechnology for Scientists and Engineers
Introduction to Nanotechnology for Scientists and Engineers was written for professionals, both from academia and industry, who want to learn more about nanotechnology, as opposed to those who are already specialists in this field. It covers the broad aspects of nanotechnology with a focus on the basic science, experimental techniques and important results and emerging applications.
The book is a collection of the author's years of experience and research findings, as well as the latest development, in micro-nanofabrication technologies. It gives a detailed introduction on the basics of micro-nanofabrication, including optical lithography, electron beam lithography, focused ion beam technique, X-ray lithography, various etching and replication techniques. For each of the fabrication technology it introduces, the emphasis is on clear explanation of the basic principle, the e...

Carbon-Based Electronics
by Ashok Srivastava, Jose Mauricio Marulanda, Yao Xu, and Ashwani Sharma
Discovery of one-dimensional material carbon nanotubes in 1991 by the Japanese physicist Dr. Sumio Iijima has resulted in voluminous research in the field of carbon nanotubes for numerous applications, including possible replacement of silicon used in the fabrication of CMOS chips. One interesting feature of carbon nanotubes is that these can be me
A large amount of natural or artificially produced physical phenomena are exploited for practical applications, even though several of them give rise to unpleasant consequences. These ultimately manifest themselves under form of malfunction or definitive failure of components and systems, or environmental hazard. So far, manifold categories of inadvertent or deliberate sources have been discovered to simultaneously produce useful effects in some ways but adverse ones in others. In particular, re...
This book provides step-by-step guidance on how to design VLSI systems using Verilog. It shows the way to design systems that are device, vendor and technology independent. Coverage presents new material and theory as well as synthesis of recent work with complete Project Designs using industry standard CAD tools and FPGA boards. The reader is taken step by step through different designs, from implementing a single digital gate to a massive design consuming well over 100,000 gates. All the desig...
