Harrison, Reid R. | Micropower circuits for bidirectional wireless telemetry in neural recording applications | State-of-the art neural recording systems require electronics allowing for transcutaneous, bidirectional data transfer. As these circuits will be implanted near the brain, they must be small and low power. We have developed micropower integrated circuits for recovering clock and data signals over ... | Micropower circuits; Neural recording systems; Low-power CMOS circuits, RF telemetry; Transcutaneous data link; Transmitter | 2005-01-01 |

Stevens, Kenneth | Characterization of asynchronous templates for integration into clocked CAD flows | Asynchronous circuit design can result in substantial benefits of reduced power, improved performance, and high modularity.

Stringfellow, Gerald B. | Strain-enhanced doping in semiconductors: effects of dopant size and charge state | When a semiconductor host is doped by a foreign element, it is inevitable that a volume change will occur in the doped system.
