Title Millimeter-Wave/Terahertz CMOS Multipliers with High Efficiency and Wide Bandwidth Abstract Millimeter-wave(mmW) and terahertz (THz) are very promising for the emerging 6G communications. For massive 6G chips, mmW/THz sources are highly preferred to feature high efficiency, large bandwidth, high output power, low phase noise, high integration, and low cost, simultaneously. To meet this strict requirement, a potential approach is to cascade a low-frequency high-performance synthesizer with high-frequency multiplier(s). To realize mmW/THz multipliers, bulk CMOS processes significantly benefit full integration and low cost, but usually suffers from low efficiency and especially low output power. To alleviate these challenging issues, this talk presents some new methods including odd-harmonic recycling, amplitude-phase coordinating, and drain-harmonic shaping, aiming to simultaneously achieve high performances, high integration and low cost for massive markets including 6G communications. Biography Prof. Sanming Hu received his Ph.D. degree in 2009 from the State Key Lab. of Millimeter Waves, Southeast University, Nanjing, China, where he is a professor and a deputy director. From 2006 to 2015, he was a visiting PhD student at Nanyang Technological University in Singapore, a Scientist at the Institute of Microelectronics, A*STAR, an Alexander von Humboldt Research Fellow at University of Ulm in Germany, and then an Assistant Professor at Heriot-Watt University in Edinburgh, UK.Dr. Hu is a Senior Member of IEEE and Chinese Institute of Electronics (CIE). Dr. Hu (co)authored around 180 peer-reviewed papers including several covers. As the first author, he received the Best Paper Award of the IEEE Transactions on Components, Packaging, and Manufacturing Technology. His current research interest focuses on millimeter-wave/terahertz chips including integrated circuits, antennas, and their field-circuit integration. |
