Write-up on the Event:
The School of Electronics Engineering, in collaboration with the IEEE Council on Electronic Design Automation (CEDA), IEEE Antenna and Propagation Society (APS), IEEE Microwave Theory and Technology Society (MTTS) Student Branch Chapter, and the IEEE AP-S and MTT-S Bhubaneswar Chapter, successfully organized an expert talk titled “Signal Generation at THz/Sub-THz Frequencies in CMOS and BiCMOS Technologies” on 5th April 2025. The session was delivered by Dr. Suprovo Ghosh, Design Engineer at Texas Instruments, alumnus of the University of Texas at Dallas and KIIT University. The talk provided a comprehensive overview of advanced signal generation techniques for terahertz (THz) and sub-THz frequencies using CMOS and BiCMOS technologies. Dr. Ghosh discussed critical design challenges such as device limitations, phase noise, power efficiency, and thermal constraints, while highlighting recent breakthroughs in integrated circuit architectures. Applications in high-speed wireless communication, imaging, and radar systems were elaborated, emphasizing the growing relevance of THz technologies in next-generation systems. Drawing from his industry experience at Texas Instruments, Dr. Ghosh shared practical insights into translating academic research into real-world semiconductor solutions. He also highlighted the importance of academic–industry collaboration, career development, and social awareness and outreach in advancing RF and millimeter-wave research. His journey as a KIIT alumnus and global technologist strongly inspired participants, motivating students to pursue innovation-driven careers in semiconductor and RF engineering.
