    摘要: Various embodiments of the present invention are directed to photonic devices that can be used to collect and convert incident ER into surface plasmons that can be used to enhance the operation of microelectronic devices. In one embodiment of the present invention, a photonic device (100) comprises a dielectric layer (104) having a top surface and a bottom surface, and a planar nanowire network (106) covering at least a portion of the top surface of the dielectric layer. The bottom surface of the dielectric layer is positioned on the top surface of a substrate (102), and the planar nanowire network is configured to convert incident electromagnetic radiation into surface plasmons that penetrate through the dielectric layer and into at least a portion of the substrate.

    摘要: Various embodiments of the present invention are directed to electronic means for reading the content of a nanowire-crossbar memory. In one embodiment of the present invention, a microscale or sub-microscale signal line (402) is interconnected with one set of parallel nanowires (310-315) emanating from a nanowire-crossbar memory by configurable, nanowire-junction switches (404). The microscale or sub-microscale signal line (402) serves as a single-wire multiplexer, allowing the contents of any particular single-bit atorage element (316) within the nanowire-crossbar memory to be read.

    摘要: Determination of a sensor device location in a sensor network is described. A system can include rotating optical beams (270) having a known location. Detectors (210) can be located with each of the rotating optical beams. The system can include a sensor device (280) placeable as part of the sensor network. A reflector (125, 285) can be near the sensor device and can reflect at least two optical beams back to the detectors associated with each of the respective optical beams. A triangulation module (235) can triangulate a position of the reflector, and thus the sensor, based on the reflected optical beams.

    摘要: A three dimensional multilayer circuit (600) includes a plurality of crossbar arrays (512) made up of intersecting crossbar segments (410, 420) and programmable crosspoint devices (514) interposed between the intersecting crossbar segments (410, 420). Shift pins (505, 510) are used to shift connection domains (430) of the intersecting crossbar segments (410, 420) between stacked crossbar arrays (512) such that the programmable crosspoint devices (514) are uniquely addressed. The shift pins (505, 510) make electrical connections between crossbar arrays (512) by passing vertically between crossbar segments (410, 510) in the first crossbar array (512) and crossbar segments in a second crossbar array. A method for transforming multilayer circuits is also described.
