The physics of phase-noise mitigation : signal and filtering using microwave-photonic generation links
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2013)
The spectral purity of every oscillator system is limited by noise. This thesis explores the physics and measurements of noise fundamental to oscillators operating in the electrical and optical domains. Our analysis leads ...
Sparse recovery and Fourier sampling
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2013)
In the last decade a broad literature has arisen studying sparse recovery, the estimation of sparse vectors from low dimensional linear projections. Sparse recovery has a wide variety of applications such as streaming ...
Three-dimensional nanostructures fabricated by stacking pre-patterned monocrystalline silicon nanomembranes
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2013)
This thesis considers the viability of nanomembrane handling and stacking approaches to enable the fabrication of three-dimensional (3D) nano-structured materials. Sequentially stacking previously-patterned membranes to ...
