Based on theoretical background and selected parameters, a connection concept will be created. This concept will be validated by a device that will consist of main board, changeable modules and measurement circuits.

Laser Induced Forward Transfer (LIFT) techniques show promise as a disruptive technology which will enable the placement of components smaller than what conventional pick-and-place techniques are capable of today. Limitations of current die-attach techniques are presented and discussed and present the opportunity for a new placement method. This study introduces the Thermo-Mechanical Selective Laser Assisted Die Transfer (tmSLADT) process and is an application of the unique blistering behavior of a dynamic releasing layer when irradiated by low energy focused UV laser pulses. The potential of tmSLADT as the next generation LIFT technique is demonstrated by the "touchless" transfer of 65 μm thick silicon tiles between two substrates spaced 195 μm apart. Additionally, the advantages of an enclosed blister-actuator mechanism over previously studied ablative and thermal releasing techniques are discussed. Finally, experimental results studying transfer precision indicate this non optimized die transfer process compares with, and may exceed, the placement precision of current assembly techniques. / Defense Microelectronics Activity (DMEA) under agreement number H94003-09-2-0905

Bereits Galilei untersuchte, ob verschiedene frei fallende Körper im Schwerefeld der Erde gleich stark beschleunigt werden, die sogenannte Universalität des freien Falls. Die Genauigkeit der experimentellen Überprüfungen konnte seitdem beständig gesteigert werden. Einen neuen Ansatz, die Messgenauigkeit noch weiter zu verbessern, bilden quantenmechanische Messmethoden, die auf Materiewelleninterferometrie beruhen. Die dabei genutzten Apparaturen verwenden Laserstrahlung zur Kühlung, Manipulation und Detektion der Atome. Ziel der vorliegenden Arbeit war die Entwicklung des Lasersystems für ein neues Experiment, das erstmals Zwei-Spezies-Atominterferometrie (mit Rb & K) in Mikrogravitation demonstrieren soll. Ein Lasersystem, das sowohl die funktionalen Anforderungen als auch die aus dem Einsatz auf dem Katapult des Fallturms resultierenden Anforderung (Volumen < 44 l, Masse < 35 kg und voll funktionsfähig sofort nach einem Katapultstart mit Beschleunigungen von 30 g) erfüllt, wurde funktional konzipiert und mechanisch designt. Zur Demonstration wurde der Rubidium-Teil des Lasersystems funktional sowie mechanisch qualifiziert. Inzwischen wird er routinemäßig für Experimente am Fallturm eingesetzt. Für das Lasersystem wurden kompakte und robuste schmalbandigen Lasermodule entwickelt. Diese liefern bei einer Grundfläche der optischen Bank von nur 10 mm x 50 mm Ausgangsleistungen von bis zu 3,7 W. Am Arbeitspunkt (1 W Ausgangsleistung) besitzen die Strahlquellen Linienbreiten im Bereich von 100 kHz (Lorentz) bzw. 1 MHz (-3 dB, 10 µs). Zum Nachweis der spektralen Stabilität der Lasermodule wurde ein Messverfahrens zur Charakterisierung des Frequenzrauschens freilaufender Laser entwickelt. Dieses basiert auf einer Schwebungsmessung mit anschließender Analyse der Quadraturkomponenten des Signals im Zeitbereich. Durch den Einsatz geeigneter Filter erlaubt es die Unterdrückung der für Diodenlaser typischen Frequenzdrifts. / Galileo, already, investigated whether different free falling bodies in the gravitational field of the Earth are accelerated at the same rate, the so-called universality of the free fall. The accuracy of the experimental tests has been steadily increased ever since. A new approach to further increase the measurement accuracy is provided by quantum mechanical measurements based on matter wave interferometry. The apparatuses used for this purpose employ laser radiation for cooling, manipulation, and detection of the atoms. The aim of this thesis’ work was the development of the laser system for a new experiment intended to demonstrate two-species atom interferometry (utilizing Rb & K) in microgravity for the first time. A laser system, which fulfills the functional requirements as well as the requirements resulting from the deployment on the catapult of the drop tower (volume < 44 l, mass < 35 kg, and fully functional immediately after a catapult launch with accelerations of 30 g), has been functionally conceived and mechanically designed. For demonstration, the rubidium part of the laser system was functionally and mechanically qualified. By now, it is routinely used for experiments at the drop tower. For the laser system, compact and robust spectrally narrow laser modules have been developed. These provide an output power up to 3.7 W at a footprint of the optical bench of only 10 mm × 50 mm. At the operating point (1 W output power), the radiation sources exhibit linewidths in the range of 100 kHz (Lorentzian) and 1 MHz (−3 dB, 10 μs). To validate the spectral stability of the laser modules a measuring method for the characterization of the frequency noise of free-running lasers has been developed. This method is based on a beat note measurement with subsequent analysis of the quadrature components of the signal in the time domain. By utilizing appropriate filters, it allows for the suppression of the frequency drifts that are typical for diode lasers.

Under de så kallade rekordåren mellan 1961-1975 byggdes det totalt 920,000 lägenheter i flerbostadshus i Sverige, och idag finns omkring 850,000 av dessa kvar. Den vanligaste byggnadstekniken under perioden var med byggande av förtillverkade våningshöga fasadelement tillsammans med en platsbyggd bokhyllestomme med tvärgående bärande innerväggar och gavlar. Syftet med arbetet är att kontrollera om en våningspåbyggnad på ett referenshus från miljonprogrammet med bokhyllestomme är möjlig för att skapa nya lägenheter som medför ökade hyresintäkter för fastighetsägaren, och kan medverka till ökad variation i området arkitektonisk och öka lägenhetsutbudet. Arbetet ger information om vad som behöver kontrolleras och utredas vid uppstarten av ett påbyggnadsprojekt. Arbetet jämför och beskriver tre olika stomförslag på en våningspåbyggnad. Alternativen som tas upp är massivträstomme med bärande flerskiktskiva, prefabricerad betong – och stålstomme bestående av HD/F-plattor och VKR-pelare, och ett alternativ bestående av volymelement. Inventering av konstruktionen och bärförmågan hos den befintliga stommen visar att det finns bärförmåga kvar att utnyttja. Utförda kontroller undersöker bl.a. bärförmågan hos väggar, grundsulor, samt det befintliga vindsbjälklaget. Kontroller utförs även med hänsyn till stabilitet då byggnaden betraktas som en stel enhet med en fiktiv påbyggnad. Slutsatsen av detta arbete är att en våningspåbyggnad är fullt möjlig på referenshuset. Alternativet med massivträ klarar en fiktiv påbyggnad om tre våningar som valts som exempel i arbetet. Alternativet med en prefabricerad betong och-stålstomme kan maximalt byggas på med två extra våningar, sedan blir grundtrycket dimensionerande och begränsar antalet våningar för påbyggnaden till två. / During the so called ‘record years’ between 1961-1975 a total of 920,000 apartments were built in apartment buildings in Sweden. Today about 850.000 of these are still in use. The most common method of building during this period was by using prefabricated one-storey high façade units together with load-bearing interior cross walls and gable walls which were built on site. The purpose of this degree project is to find out if a storey extension on a reference-building from the so called ‘Million Programme’ with load-bearing interior cross walls is possible in order to create new apartments. If this is possible it would give an increase of income of rents to the owner of the apartment building and it could also contribute to an increase of variation in the area as regards both architecture and supply of apartments. This degree project gives information about what has to be checked and investigated before a storey extension project begins. This degree project compares and describes three different suggestions of structural construction systems for storey extensions. The alternatives dealt with are solid timber structural construction consisting of cross-laminated boards, a prefabricated concrete – and steel structural construction consisting of HD/F-elements and tube steel framing, and finally an alternative consisting of prefabricated building modules. The study of the structural construction and the load-bearing capacity of the existing building show that there is enough load-bearing capacity left to make use of. Performed checks investigate for example the load-bearing capacity of load-bearing walls, strip foundations as well as the existing loft floor. Checks are also performed with regard to the stability as the building is considered a stiff unit with a fictitious storey extension. The conclusion from this degree project is that a storey extension is fully possible on the reference-building. The alternative with a solid timber structural construction allows a fictitious storey extension with three additional storeys, which has been chosen as an example in this degree project. The alternative with the prefabricated concrete – and steel structural construction allows a fictitious storey extension of maximum two additional storeys, and then the ground pressure was dimensioning and limited the amount of additional storeys for the storey extension.

In today’s research and market, IT applications for health-care are gaining huge interest of both IT and medical researchers. Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) are considered the largest cause of death for both men and women regardless of ethnic backgrounds. More efficient treatments and most importantly efficient methods of cardiac diagnosis that examine heart diseases are desired. Electrocardiography (ECG) is an essential method used to diagnose heart diseases. However, diagnosing any cardiovascular disease based on the 12-lead ECG printout from an ECG machine using human eye might seriously impair analysis accuracy. To meet this challenge of today’s ECG analysis methodology, a more reliable solution that can analyze huge amount of patient’s data in real-time is desired. The software solution presented in this article is aimed to reduce the risk while diagnosing cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) by human eye, computation of large-scale patient’s data in real-time at the patient’s location and sending the required results or summary to the doctor/nurse. Keeping in mind the importance of real-time analysis of patient’s data, the software system has built upon small individual algorithms/modules designed for multi-core architecture, where each module is supposed to be processed by an individual core/processor in parallel. All the input and output processes to the analysis system are made automated, which reduces operator’s interaction to the system and thus reducing the cost. The outputs/results of the processing are summarized to smaller files in both ASCII and binary formats to meet the requirement of exchanging the data over Voice and Data Networks.
