Nondestructive Imaging of Packaged Microelectronics using Pulsed Terahertz Technology
Tyler Bowman and Magda El-ShenaweeAbstractThis work presents the use of terahertz reflection imaging for nondestructive evaluation of packaged microelectronics. Power MOSFETs and SRAM devices are placed in a pulsed terahertz imaging system in the reflection mode with...
Vibrational states of nano-confined water molecules in beryl investigated by first-principles calculations and optical experiments
Belyanchikov, Mikhail, Elena Zhukova, Sergei Tretiak, Andriy Zhugayevych, Martin Dressel, Frank Uhlig, Jens Smiatek, Maria Fyta, Victor G. Thomas, and Boris Gorshunov.AbstractUsing quantum mechanical calculations within density functional theory, we provide a...
A Study of the Effect of a Protein on the Structure of Water in Solution Using Terahertz Time-Domain Spectroscopy
Penkov, Nikita, Valery Yashin, Eugeny Fesenko Jr, Andrew Manokhin, and Eugeny Fesenko.AbstractTerahertz time-domain spectroscopy (THz-TDS) was used to determine the spectra (range = 1.2–120 cm−1) of aqueous solutions of bovine serum albumin (BSA) at pH range 2.5–10....
Excitations and relaxation dynamics in multiferroic GeV 4 S 8 studied by terahertz and dielectric spectroscopy
Reschke, S., Zhe Wang, F. Mayr, E. Ruff, P. Lunkenheimer, V. Tsurkan, and A. Loidl.AbstractWe report on THz time-domain spectroscopy on multiferroic GeV4S8, which undergoes orbital ordering at a Jahn-Teller transition at 30.5 K and exhibits antiferromagnetic order...
A split-ring-resonator-based polarization-insensitive ultra broadband filter in terahertz range
Mei ZhuAbstractSplit-ring-resonators (SRRs) are one of the most common unit cell designs for metamaterials. Though extensively studied and well understood, such devices are often used as narrow-band filters due to SRRs' sharp resonance to electromagnetic wave. In this...
Structural changes of Bombyx mori fibroin from silk gland to fiber as evidenced by Terahertz spectroscopy and other methods
Wu, Xu, Xiaodong Wu, Min Shao, and Bin Yang.AbstractHere we investigated the structural changes of silk fibroin during Bombyx mori silkworm spinning and reconstitution process. X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, polarized optical microscopy,...
A phantom study of terahertz spectroscopy and imaging of micro- and nano-diamonds and nano-onions as contrast agents for breast cancer
Bowman, Tyler, Alec Walter, Olga Shenderova, Nicholas Nunn, Gary E. McGuire, and Magda El-Shenawee.AbstractTerahertz (THz) imaging is effective in distinguishing between cancerous, healthy, and fatty tissues in breast tumors, but a challenge remains in the contrast...
Tuning the plasmon resonance and work function of laser-scribed chemically doped graphene
Anis, Badawi, A. Abouelsayed, Amany M. Sawy, and Ahmed SG Khalil.Here, we present terahertz spectroscopy study on laser scribed graphene (LSG) doped with monovalent Na+ cations (LSG/MNCs), silver nanoparticles (LSG/SNPs), and silver nanowires (LSG/SNWs), in the...
Terahertz Imaging and Electromagnetic Model of Axon Demyelination in Alzheimer’s Disease
Yeo, Woon-Gi, Ogan Gurel, Nandhini Srinivasan, Paul D. King, Niru K. Nahar, Sungchan Park, Norman L. Lehman, and Kubilay Sertel.We investigate the utility of terahertz (THz) spectroscopy in identifying Alzheimer's disease in human brain tissue. Using reflection-mode...
