The low-frequency impedance hook in perovskite solar cells (PSC) is a feature that has been frequently associated with the behavior of passive circuits of inductors or negative capacitances. However, if the experimental impedance data do not transform according to the Kramers-Kronig (KK) relations, the system does not fulfill the conditions of linearity, stability, causality and finiteness

In this letter, a third-order wideband voltage-mode all-pass filter (APF) is proposed for application as a true time delay (TTD) cell. The advantages of designing a single-stage higher order filter over cascading several lower order stages are illustrated. The proposed APF circuit is based on a single metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS) transistor and is canonical because it requires one resistor, one

A novel scheme suitable for the emulation of fractional-order capacitors and inductors of any order less than 2 is presented in this work. Classically, fractional-order impedances are characterized in the frequency domain by a fractional-order Laplacian of the form s± α with an order 0 < α< 1. The ideal inductor and capacitor correspond, respectively, to setting α= ± 1. In the range 1 < α< 2

In this study we quantify and interpret the inherent memory in fractional-order capacitors when subjected to constant current charging/discharging waveforms. This is done via a finite difference approximation of the fractional order rate equation I(t) = Cαdαv(t)/dtα (0 le; α ≤ 1) relating current to voltage in these devices. It is found that as the fractional exponent α decreases, the weight of

A novel non-uniform Kramers–Kronig Transform algorithm for bioimpedance phase extraction is proposed and tested in this work. The algorithm error is studied and compared with a previously proposed phase extraction technique, also based on the Kramers–Kronig transform. Results using simulated datasets and experimental datasets confirm the excellent performance of the algorithm. © 2020, European

The constant phase element (CPE) or fractional-order capacitor is an electrical device that has an impedance of the form Z(s)=1/Cαsα, where Cα is the CPE parameter and α is a fractional dispersion coefficient of values between 0 and 1. Here we show that in the time-domain the classical linear charge-voltage relationship of ideal capacitors, q=C·v, is not valid for CPEs. In fact the relationship is

In this work, a generic impedance modeling technique is proposed. The technique is able to identify a circuit model that is most suitable for fitting measured impedance magnitude data using a genetic algorithm solver as well as the optimum circuit model parameters. Experimentally measured and simulated data sets with different noise levels are used to validate the technique. © 2020 Elsevier GmbH

Nowadays, the interconnect circuits' conduct plays a crucial role in determining the performance of the CMOS systems, especially those related to nano-scale technology. Modeling the effect of such an influential component has been widely studied from many perspectives. In this article, we propose a new general formula for RLC interconnect circuit model in CMOS technology using the fractional-order

This paper proposes digital design and realization on Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) of the Fractional-order (FO) delayed financial chaotic system. The system is solved numerically using the approximated Grünwald-Letnikov (GL) method. For the purpose of FPGA realization, the short memory principle and an approximate GL with limited window size are utilized. Lookup Tables (LUTs) are employed

We propose a mathematical system capable of exhibiting chaos with a chaotic attractor which is odd symmetrical in the x − y phase plane but even symmetrical in the x − z and y − z phase planes respectively. A hardware implementation of the system is done on a digital FPGA platform for verification. The system is also attractive in the sense that (i) its dynamics are single-parameter controlled and
