High-Performance Integrated PIN-TIA System in 16nm FinFET Technology

This research project focuses on developing an advanced light detection system for high-speed communication networks. The interns will integrate a specialized photodetector (PIN photodiode) and an amplifier (Transimpedance Amplifier or TIA), using cutting-edge (16nm FinFET) technology. The photodetector quickly detects light signals at visible frequency, while the amplifier boosts these signals with minimal added noise. […]

CT Coronary Artery Phantom Fabrication

The project relates to the fabrication of polymeric devices capable of mimicking that of live human tissue under x-ray computed tomographic (CT) imaging. These devices must be fabricated in such a way that specific material properties are controlled to thereby precisely mimic the desired tissue. The work following this will benefit the partner organization as […]

The Mosquitoes of Calgary: From Morphological References to Molecular Barcodes

Mosquitoes are a widespread nuisance that can also be responsible for the transmission of deadly diseases to people and animals, but different species of mosquitoes are responsible for the transmission of different diseases, and many species vary greatly in how they behave and where they are found. Identifying which mosquito species are found in an […]

Enhance nutrient management in spring wheat using enhanced efficiency fertilizers and biochar

This research project is investigating the management practices to improve nutrient management in spring wheat production using enhanced efficiency fertilizers and biochar in Nova Scotia. Extreme weather and high precipitation rates have caused leaching and nitrogen losses in soils that have severely impacted yields across the region. Nutrients from conventional fertilizers can be rapidly leached […]

Fast estimation of building stocks in the GTA for deconstruction assessment

There is a large stock of construction materials in existing built facilities, which when reaching their end of life, become a liability for their owners. The current practices of demolishing and disposing of these facilities when reaching their end-of-life generate considerable amounts of wastage and collectively can lead to landfill overuse; hence are not compliant […]

Real-time Garment Synthesis for Game Deployment

Cloth animation is essential in video games, but creating realistic cloth movements in real-time is challenging due to computing limitations. Traditional methods use simplified simulations combined with keyframing to manage performance and control, but these can be unstable and offer limited animator flexibility. Our project proposes a solution using neural networks to animate garments. By […]
