This work provides an alternative derivation of third order response functions in four wave mixing spectroscopy of multichromophoric macromolecular systems considering only single exciton states. For the case of harmonic oscillator bath linearly and diagonally coupled to exciton states, closed form expressions showing all the explicit time dependences are derived. These expressions can provide more solid physical basis for understanding 2-dimensional electronic spectroscopy signals. For more general cases of system-bath coupling, the quantum master equation (QME) approach is employed for the derivation of multistep time evolution equations for Green function-like operators. Solution of these equations is feasible at the level of 2nd order non-Markovian QME, and the new approach can account for inter-exciton coupling, dephasing, relaxation, and non-Markovian effects in a consistent manner.

The objective of this paper is to present a quantitative analysis leading to the assessment of optimum terminating impedances in the design of active frequency multipliers. A brief analysis of the basic principal of the GaAs FET frequency multiplier is presented. The analysis is outlined in bias optimization and drive power determination. Utilizing the equivalent circuit model of GaAs FET, we have simulated the optimized load impedance for the maximum output of the active frequency multipliers. The C-class and reverse C-class frequency doublers have been fabricated and the load impedances have been measured. The experimental results are in good agreement with the estimated results in the simulation with the accuracy of 90%.

Silica glass is a core material for optical fiber in optical telecommunications, but its centrosymmetry eliminates the second order nonlinearity. But it is experimentally well known that the space charge polarization induces the Second Harmonic Generation (SHG) when a strong DC voltage is applied to silica glass for a long period time with metal blocking electrodes. In this research, a theoretical calculation of the nonlinear optical property caused by the space charge polarization is performed, and a model of a numerical analysis to predict the small change in nonlinear optical property as functions of time and space is provided.

In this paper, we have presented millimeter-wave high conversion gain quadruple subharmonic mixers adopting the cascode harmonic generator The subharmonic mixers were successfully integrated by using 0.1 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ GaAs pseudomorphic HEMTs(PHEMTs) and coplanar waveguide(CPW) structures. Measured output of 1st, 2nd and 4th harmonics of the fabricated cascode 4th harmonic generator are -21.42 dBm, -32.65 dBm and -13.45 dBm, respectively, for an input power of 10 dBm at 14.5 GHz. We showed that the highest conversion gain of 3.4 dB has obtained thus far at a LO power of 13 dBm from the fabricated subharmonic mixers. The millimeter-wave subharmonic mixer also ensure a high degree of isolation showing -53.6 dB in the LO-to-IF and -46.2 dB in the LO-to-RF, respectively, at a frequency of 14.5 GHz. The high conversion gain achieved in this work is the first report among the millimeter-wave subharmonic mixers.

In order to satisfy the diffusion of multimedia service in mobile communication and the demand for high-speed communication, it is essential to modify and improve high efficiency, wideband and nonlinear characteristic of multiband power amplifier. This research is designed to implement a single-stub matching circuit as a 2nd harmonic one that meets conditions of the Class-J power amplifier. Low characteristic impedance of the single-stub line is necessary to suit conditions of wideband Class-J. This research uses ceramic substrates having high permittivity to implement the single-stub line with low characteristic impedance, which eventually results in an amplifier satisfying the output impedance terms of Class-J in wideband frequency range. This result attributes to use of GaN HEMT packaged with a 2nd harmonic matching circuit and external fundamental circuit. The measurement results of the Class-J amplifier confirms the following characteristics: more than output power of 50 W(47 dBm) in bandwidth of 1.8~2.7 GHz(0.9GHz), maximum drain efficiency of 72.6 %, and maximum PAE characteristic of 66.5 %.

A fresnoite glass-ceramics has been investigating considerably because of the second order nonlinearity as well as its permanent optical nonlinearity. However, the chemical compositions of transparent glass-ceramics examined in the previous studies have been limited to adjust the composition close to fresnoite stoichiometrically. In this study, to investigate the effect of strontium ions in glass-ceramics on second order nonlinearity, $K_2O-TiO_2-SiO_2$ (KTS) glasses soaked in molten $Sr(NO_3)_2$ were prepared. Crystalline phases of the soaked glasses were measured by X-ray diffraction (XRD) as soaking times and additional heat treatment. The exchange of strontium ions into the glass was verified by Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscope (FE-SEM). And the phenomena of second order harmonic generation (SHG) was observed using Nd-YAG laser.

In this paper, high-efficiency DC-AC converter is implemented for the wireless power transmission. The DC-AC converter is implemented by combining the oscillator and power amplifier. Because the conversion efficiency of wireless power transmitter is strongly affected by the efficiency of power amplifier, the high-efficiency power amplifier is implemented by using the Class-E amplifier structure. Also, because the output power of oscillator connected to the input stage of power amplifier is low, high-gain two-stages power amplifier using the drive amplifier is implemented to realize the high-output power DC-AC converter. The dual band harmonic suppression filter is implemented to suppress 2nd, 3rd harmonics of 13.56 MHz. The output power and conversion efficiency of DC-AC converter are 40 dBm and 80.2 % at the operation frequency of 13.56 MHz.

In this paper, we proposed a novel harmonic load circuit to design a high efficiency class-F amplifier. The proposed load circuit controls termination impedances to enhance the efficiency of class-F power amplifier. The termination impedances at the 2nd and the 3rd harmonics are showed short and open condition, respectively. Also, a fabricated load circuit showed an attenuation characteristic more than 29 dB, that is enough to eliminate harmonics of the class-F power amplifier. The measured drain and power-added efficiency are 75.7 % and 71.3 % at the point of maximum output power 35.17 dBm.

In this paper, a compact 370 W high efficiency GaN(Gallium Nitride) HEMT(High Electron Mobility Transistor) power amplifier(PA) using internal harmonic manipulation circuits is presented for cellular and L-band. We employed a new circuit topology for simultaneous high efficiency matching at both fundamental and 2nd harmonic frequency. In order to minimize package size, new 41.8 mm GaN HEMT and two MOS(Metal Oxide Semiconductor) capacitors are internally matched and combined package size $10.16{\times}10.16{\times}1.5Tmm^3$ through package material changes and wire bonded in a new package to improve thermal resistance. When drain biased at 48 V, the developed GaN HEMT power amplifier has achieved over 80 % Drain Efficiency(DE) from 770~870 MHz and 75 % DE at 1,805~1,880 MHz with 370 W peak output power(Psat.). This is the state-of-the-art efficiency and output power of GaN HEMT power amplifier at cellular and L-band to the best of our knowledge.
