PhD - Leuven Your flexible integrated circuit as peripheral in a medical imager!

Low temperature polycrystalline silicon (LTPS) transistors are very attractive due to the possibility of having a full complementary CMOS flow on flexible substrate, having charge carrier mobilities exceeding 50 cm²/Vs for p-type devices. The main applications for those transistors cover a broad range from are to be employed in-pixel switches, drivers and/or amplifiers, to peripheral circuits as found in displays and imagers. The goal of this PhD topic is to elaborate several mixed-signal integrated circuits, such as amplifiers, analog-to-digital converters and memory read/write circuits in Low Temperature Polycrystalline Silicon (LTPS) technologies. The PhD student will perform detailed system level study of thin-film transistor-based integrated circuits for several applications in order to realize these circuits within specification. It will be important to also understand the opportunities and overcome the challenges specific to those technologies. In addition to design, the PhD student will also be responsible for the integrated circuit measurements, comparison of experiments and modelling. Designs will be processed in the available foundry technologies. |
