  • Negative Capacitance in a Ferroelectric Capacitor

Negative capacitance in ferroelectric materials, which stems from the stored energy of phase transition, could provide a solution, but a direct measurement of negative capacitance has so far been elusive1-3. Here we report the observation of negative capacitance in a thin, epitaxial ferroelectric film. When a voltage pulse is applied, the voltage across the ferroelectric capacitor is found to be decreasing with time–in exactly the opposite direction to which voltage for a regular capacitor should change. Analysis of this ‘inductance’-like behavior from a capacitor presents an unprecedented insight into the intrinsic energy profile of the ferroelectric material and could pave the way for completely new applications. 1 Owing to the energy barrier that forms during phase transition and separates the two degenerate polarization states, a ferroelectric material could show negative differential capacitance while in non-equilibrium1-5. The state of negative capacitance is unstable, but just as a series resistance can stabilize the negative differential resistance of an Esaki diode, it is also possible to stabilize a ferroelectric in the negative differential capacitance state by placing a series dielectric capacitor 1-3.

  • Very High Frequency Integrated POL for Cpus
    Very High Frequency Integrated POL for CPUs Dongbin Hou Dissertation submitted to the Faculty of the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY in Electrical Engineering Fred C. Lee, Chair Qiang Li Rolando Burgos Daniel J. Stilwell Dwight D. Viehland March 23rd, 2017 Blacksburg, Virginia Keywords: Point-of-load converter, integrated voltage regulator, very high frequency, 3D integration, ultra-low profile inductor, magnetic characterizations, core loss measurement © 2017, Dongbin Hou Dongbin Hou Very High Frequency Integrated POL for CPUs Dongbin Hou Abstract Point-of-load (POL) converters are used extensively in IT products. Every piece of the integrated circuit (IC) is powered by a point-of-load (POL) converter, where the proximity of the power supply to the load is very critical in terms of transient performance and efficiency. A compact POL converter with high power density is desired because of current trends toward reducing the size and increasing functionalities of all forms of IT products and portable electronics. To improve the power density, a 3D integrated POL module has been successfully demonstrated at the Center for Power Electronic Systems (CPES) at Virginia Tech. While some challenges still need to be addressed, this research begins by improving the 3D integrated POL module with a reduced DCR for higher efficiency, the vertical module design for a smaller footprint occupation, and the hybrid core structure for non-linear inductance control. Moreover, as an important category of the POL converter, the voltage regulator (VR) serves an important role in powering processors in today’s electronics.

Linvill Abstract The amplifier chain, a cascade connection of amplifier tubes connected by two- terminal or two-terminal-pair interstages, is the basic component of the amplifiers designed. Shunt capacitance in the interstages imposes a limit on the amplification per stage over a prescribed band of frequencies. The limit of amplification per stage is inversely proportional to the bandwidth. The method of design of amplifier chains pre- sented leads to simple interstages which are economically close to the maximum in performance for the shunt capacitance present.

  • Analysis of Low Voltage Regulator Efficiency Based
    ANALYSIS OF LOW VOLTAGE REGULATOR EFFICIENCY BASED ON FERRITE INDUCTOR by MRIDULA KOTHAKONDA A THESIS Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering in the Graduate School of The University of Alabama TUSCALOOSA, ALABAMA 2010 Copyright Mridula Kothakonda 2010 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT Low voltage regulator based on ferrite inductor, using single- and two-phase topologies, were designed and simulated in MATLAB. Simulated values of output voltage and current were used to evaluate the buck converter (i.e., low voltage regulator) for power efficiency and percentage ripple reduction at frequencies between 1 and 10 MHz with variable loads from 0.024 to 4 Ω. The parameters, such as inductance of 20 nH, quality factor of 15 of fabricated ferrite inductor and DC resistance (DCR) of 8.3 mΩ, were used for efficiency analysis of the converter. High current around 40 A was achieved by the converter at low load values. Low output voltage in the range of 0.8-1.2 V was achieved. The simulated results for the single- and two- phase converter were compared for maximum efficiency and lowest ripple in output voltage and current. The maximum efficiency of 97 % with load of 0.33 Ω and the lowest ripple current of about 2.3 mA were estimated for the two-phase converter at 10 MHz. In summary, the two- phase converter showed higher efficiency and lower ripple voltage and current than those of the single-phase converter. In addition, the efficiency of single- and two-phase converters based on ferrite inductor was compared to single- and two-phase converters based on air-core inductor.

  • HIGH VOLTAGE DC up to 2 KV from AC by USING CAPACITORS and DIODES in LADDER NETWORK Mr
    [Prasad * et al., 5(6): June, 2018] ISSN: 2349-5197 Impact Factor: 3.765 INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF RESEARCH SCIENCE & MANAGEMENT HIGH VOLTAGE DC UP TO 2 KV FROM AC BY USING CAPACITORS AND DIODES IN LADDER NETWORK Mr. A. Raghavendra Prasad, Mr.K.Rajasekhara Reddy & Mr.M.Siva sankar Asst. Prof., Santhiram Engineering college, Nandyal Asst. Prof., Santhiram Engineering college, Nandyal Asst. Prof., Santhiram Engineering college, Nandyal DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.1291902 Abstract The aim of this project is designed to develop a high voltage DC around 2KV from a supply source of 230V AC using the capacitors and diodes in a ladder network based on voltage multiplier concept. The method for stepping up the voltage is commonly done by a step-up transformer. The output of the secondary of the step up transformer increases the voltage and decreases the current. The other method for stepping up the voltage is a voltage multiplier but from AC to DC. Voltage multipliers are primarily used to develop high voltages where low current is required. This project describes the concept to develop high voltage DC (even till 10KV output and beyond) from a single phase AC. For safety reasons our project restricts the multiplication factor to 8 such that the output would be within 2KV. This concept of generation is used in electronic appliances like the CRT’s, TV Picture tubes, oscilloscope and also used in industrial applications. The design of the circuit involves voltage multiplier, whose principle is to go on doubling the voltage for each stage. Thus, the output from an 8 stage voltage multiplier can generate up to 2KV.
