**Abstract:**

A 272-GHz CMOS receiver (RX) for IEEE 802.15.3d, capable of an analog BPSK/QPSK demodulation based on a Costas loop, is presented. A QPSK demodulation is realized with the non-linear operation of a phase detector at the BPSKdemodulation Costas loop. An 8-Gbaud BPSK and a 4-Gbaud QPSK demodulation at the carrier frequency of 272.16 GHz (channel 58 of IEEE 802.15.3d) are achieved.

**Abstract:**

This paper benchmark the intrinsic trade-off between two essential modules of gate-all-around GAA nanosheet (NS)FETs viz. inner-spacers (ISPs) epi-induced stress in the channel. While having both ISPs and the stress is the best-case scenario for NSFET, it comes with enhanced process challenges and performance risks: poor epi-quality resulting in a no-channel stress scenario. While inner-spacers are important to parasitic capacitance reduction, we show that having intrinsic epi-stress is more beneficial and provides a better performance trade-off. We further evaluate the impact of inner-spacer κ-value and enhanced epi-volume for the two different cases. Finally, we have performed self-heating studies to show how skipping inner spacers can provide additional reduction in peak temperature.

**Abstract:**

We explore charge and spin transport properties of bilayer CrI3 controlled by an external electric field. To this aim, we focus on two different device structures, namely Monolayer/Bilayer/Monolayer CrI3 and Bilayer/Bilayer/Bilayer CrI3. The electric field is only applied to the central Bilayer-channel. In the first device, we inject only a single spin from the ferromagnetic Monolayer CrI3 which allows us to study its effect on the spin transport properties of a spin transistor. The second structure is based on the injection of both spins, that are later filtered, resulting in spin-filter device.

**Abstract:**

We present a circuit model for the co-simulation of spin qubits with their control and readout electronics in a common simulation environment. The model, completely simulated in Spectre, can handle all the basic operations on spin qubits, including readout and universal single and 2-qubit quantum gates. Furthermore, the model has the ability to include nonidealities such as decoherence and noisy control signals, thereby paving the way for circuit-technology co-optimization for spin-based quantum computation.

**Abstract:**

In this work, we report the characterization and modeling of a 14 nm bulk FinFET technology from room-temperature down to 4.6 K. A cryogenic device model is used which shows excellent fit to measured data and can accurately predict the performance of the devices at low temperatures. The obtained results show that a tailored cryogenic FinFET technology could achieve a sharp reduction of dissipated power by reducing the drive bias. Such technology has potential for strong impact e.g. in quantum computing, by enabling integration of dense advanced cryogenic ICs inside the cryostat.

**Abstract:**

This study presents the first in depth characterization of deep cryogenic electrical behavior of a commercial 16nm CMOS FinFET technology. This technology is well suited for a broad range of applications, including quantum computing, quantum sensing, and quantum communications. Cryogenic DC measurements and physical parameters extraction were carried out on this commercial FinFET technology, operating at room temperature, i.e., 300 K, and down to 2.95K for different device types and geometries. This represents the main step towards cryogenic compact modeling and optimization of three-dimensional CMOS structures for quantum computations.

**Abstract:**

This paper reports a chopper Class-D audio amplifier that obtains high PSRR over the entire audio band. A chopping scheme is proposed to minimize intermodulation distortion between pulse-width modulation (PWM) and chopping in the audio band. A high-voltage chopper is developed to handle a 14.4 V PWM signal. Timing matching techniques are proposed to minimize chopping nonidealities which ensure good PSRR and THD. Fabricated in a 180nm BCD process, the prototype obtains a PSRR >109 dB at 217 Hz and >83.7 dB over the entire audio band. It also achieves −109.1 dB/−98 dB THD/THD+N and can deliver a maximum of 13 W to an 8-Ω load.

**Abstract:**

This paper presents a rail-to-rail class-AB operation amplifier with a proposed high-slew Miller compensation technique and current limiter for the output stage. Owing to the proposed Miller compensation technique, the amplifier achieves a maximum slew-rate of 30 V/μs while consuming a low quiescent current of 18μA. Among the state-of-the-art devices, the proposed amplifier has the best FOML of 34.72 for average slew-rate and FOMS of 10.11 for unity gain frequency.

**Abstract:**

We present a widely tunable transimpedance amplifier (TIA) with a dc servo loop and an optional bandwidth extension. All resistors are implemented as multi-element pseudo-resistors, which feature high linearity, robustness against process and temperature, and a very wide tuning range of more than five decades. The TIA features a noise floor of 0.6fA/sqrt(Hz) at its maximum transimpedance of 150GOhm and a bandwidth of 2.9MHz at its minimum transimpedance of 440kOhm. A subsequent inverting amplifier stage provides an optional pole-zero compensation to extend the TIA\'s overall bandwidth. An additional dc servo loop can be used to compensate large dc currents.

An internally compensated, two stage operational amplifier has been presented, fabricated using a-IGZO TFT technology. The highlight of the design is a new active load circuit based on positive feedback to realize high incremental impedance. The OpAmp has been fabricated and measured to have 57 dB DC-gain, 311 kHz unity-gain frequency and 75 deg. phase margin at 2.43mW power. To our knowledge, this design reports the highest achieved performance of an operational amplifier made in a-IGZO technology.

**Abstract:**

An on-chip analog waveform sampling system was demonstrated in a 65nm process focusing on extreme temperature step response measurements. Amplifier output waveforms were measured under different temperatures ranging from -40 degrees Celsius to 300 degrees Celsius. For reliability testing, the amplifiers were stressed at a 1.6x supply voltage and a 350 degrees Celsius stress temperature for a total stress time of 100 hours.
