We tested the hypothesis that single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) within genes of the NF-κB pathway are associated with altered clinical outcome of septic shock patients. We genotyped 59 SNPs in the NF-κB pathway in a discovery cohort of septic…

An 8-Gb/s 0.3-μm CMOS transceiver uses multilevel signaling (4-PAM) and transmit preshaping in combination with receive equalization to reduce intersymbol interference due to channel low-pass effects. High on-chip frequencies are avoided by…

We propose a broadband photonic millimeter wave synthesizer based on the optical phase locking of telecom-grade DFB semiconductor lasers. A mathematical model of the OPLL shows that the frequency noise profile of these lasers is such that millimeter…

We demonstrate a WDM system with 1021 independent wavelength channels within the C- and L-bands of the EDFA. All channels carry RZ data at 74 Mb/s and are spaced by only 9.5 GHz. We demonstrate transmission over 60 km of standard single mode fiber…

We present a hybrid dense wavelength-division-multiplexed time-division multiple access passive optical network (DWDM-TDMA PON) with record performance in terms of reach (135.1 km of which 124 km were field-installed fibers), number of supported…

Abstract We demonstrate a high-speed polarization-insensitive photoconductor based on intersecting InP nanowires synthesized between a pair of hydrogenated silicon electrodes deposited on amorphous SiO2 surfaces prepared on silicon substrates. A…

The primary metric for gauging progress in the various semiconductor integrated circuit technologies is the spacing, or pitch, between the most closely spaced wires within a dynamic random access memory (DRAM) circuit. Modern DRAM circuits have 140…

We report on the design and performance of a frequency multiplier chain to the 1.7-1.9 THz band. GaAs-based planar Schottky diodes are utilized in each stage. A W-band power amplifier, driven by a commercially available synthesizer, was used to pump…

Several competing technologies continue to advance the field of terahertz science; of particular importance has been the development of a terahertz semiconductor quantum cascade laser (QCL), which is arguably the only solid-state terahertz source…

We describe a 2.5 Gb/s burst-mode receiver featuring edge-detecting data recovery. A high-performance SiGe comparator and standard optical front-end combination removed all burst-format issues. Error-free performance was achieved in a 32 km radius…
