The device and electrical performances of the structure are analyzed and simulated by MEDICI. In comparison to the level-shifting structure with multiply floating field plates （MFFPs） used before, the structure stated here improves the reliability and diminishes the voltage difference between the voltage of the power supply of the high-side gate driver and the voltage of the output terminal of the level-shifting structure, which is also that of the input terminal of the high-side gate driver. The maximal voltage difference of the level-shifting structure in this paper is 30% lower than that used before. Therefore, good voltage isolation and current isolation are obtained. The structure can be used in the level-shifting circuit of various applications.展开更多

By adjusting the radii of ring resonators and the gap distance, certain wavelengths can be filtered out and the crosstalk of each channel can also be reduced. The numerical results show that the proposed MIM plasmonic waveguide structure can really function as an optical triplexer with respect to the three wavelengths, that is, 1310, 1490, and 1550 nm, respectively. It can be widely used as the fiber access network element for multiplexer–demultiplexer wavelength selective in fiber-to-the-home communication systems with transmission efficiency higher than 90%. It can also be a potential key component in the applications of the biosensing systems.展开更多
