Resumen: Much of quantum theory in Physics has been developed around the Schroedinger equation. This is related to scattering since much of the related work of the physicists uses "inverse scattering" to obtain the Schroedinger equation. In this talk, active circuit design is presented via a scattering matrix S(s) extension to non-bounded-real matrix synthesis based on the relatively unknown reflection coefficient synthesis of Wohlers. This involves forming of S=S2-1S1 as the division of two bounded-real matrices by introduction of a suitable Hurwitz common denominator. Besides the passive synthesis of S1 and S2 this involves the use of a circulator and a Negative Impedance Converter, NIC. The ideas are pertinent to the design of quantum circuits based on the Schroedinger’s wave equation modeled via non-uniform transmission-lines. These topics lead to many open problems.
Breve CV: Emeritus Professor of electrical engineering at the University of Maryland, College Park. He was a professor in the electrical engineering department at Stanford University through 1968, and from 1969 onward has been a professor in the electrical engineering department at the University of Maryland at College Park. He has graduated over 70 Ph.D. students from both Stanford and the University of Maryland. He directs the Microsystems Laboratory at the University of Maryland. His work during his career has spanned a variety of subdisciplines in electrical engineering. He is both a Life Fellow of IEEE and a Fellow of AIMBE. His recognition being the recipient of the IEEE CAS Society Golden Jubilee Medal award and the first recipient of the IEEE CAS Society Education award.

Resumen: Durante la charla se presentarán las capacidades desarrolladas en el Instituto de Microelectrónica de Barcelona para el análisis de dispositivos y circuitos microelectrónicos (tanto analógicos como digitales). Así, se describirán las principales técnicas utilizadas junto a los pasos que se siguen en diversos escenarios de estudio (Control de Calidad, Fiabilidad, Protección de la Propiedad Intelectual, Seguridad). El objetivo es dar una visión de lo que se puede hacer mediante estas técnicas y de las vulnerabilidades que los circuitos integrados pueden presentar, lecciones que nos pueden ayudar a mejorar las estrategias de diseño tradicionales, con el fin de incrementar su fiabilidad y robustez frente a posibles problemas de funcionamiento y/o ataques externos contra la seguridad de la información almacenada.
