IBM Haifa labs: IBM has the world's largest IT research organization, with more than 3,000 scientists and engineers working at 8 labs in 6 countries. IBM invests more than $5 billion a year in R&D and is the world’s leader in patent filings. In aggregate, the company holds nearly 37,000 patents worldwide. The Haifa Research Lab (HRL) is the largest of the five IBM research labs outside the United States. Since it first opened as the IBM Scientific Center in 1972, the IBM Research Lab in Haifa has conducted decades of research that have been vital to IBM's success. R&D projects are being executed today in a wide spectrum of EE and computer science field including optimization technologies, and on chip mmWave silicon technologies. Since FP4, IBM HRL has participated and led numerous EUfunded projects and is considered an Israeli leader in FP participation. Five projects are currently coordinated by IBM: RESERVOIR and VISION Cloud (FP7 IP projects), +Spaces, ACSI and PINCETTE (FP7 STRePs).This is in addition to PROSYD, SAPIR SHADOWS and Modelware, FP6 projects successfully concluded in the last few years. The A&MS (Analog and Mixed Signal) group at HRL is involved in high frequency mm wave silicon design as well as in the development of advanced tools for support of analog and RF design. The group is focused on three areas of expertise: The first being on chip interconnects modeling, developing high precision EM models for interconnects on chip applicable in the range of DC to over 100GHz. The second activity is in the development of an automated analog design migration tool for transfer of designs between technologies in which an efficient tool was developed and patented. The third activity is in the area of millimeter wave Silicon design for wireless communication systems and imaging.
Role / activity in the project
IBM H will lead the specification WP (WP1), and will contribute to the design, modelling and simulation of the THz electromagnetic part of the design – namely design of the part which guides the THz radiation till it is fully converted into heat in the TeraMOS detecting transistor (WP3).
People involved in the project
Danny Elad, PhD, received his PhD from the Dept. of Reliability and Quality Insurance, Technion, Israel Institute of Technology and has more than twenty years of experience in the microwave field. He has been instrumental in developing various microwave components in different technologies such as MIC, MMIC, Waveguide and others including Amplifiers, VCO's, Mixers, Frequency multipliers and more, designing and developing subsystems for various applications such as Wide band and Low phase noise VCO for Synthesizers, T/R modules for Communication and Radar, Wide band FMCW detector and more. Previous experience includes a term at HP (Now Agilent), where he developed an LMDS module for the Ka Band, and at Rafael, Israel, where he served as Microwave Integration Group Leader and Advanced Packaging Researcher.
Benny Sheinman, PhD, is a researcher in the mmWave, analog mixed-signal group at the IBM HRL He received his Ph.D. degrees in Electrical Engineering from the Technion-Israel Institute of Technology, Haifa, Israel, in 2003 with the dissertation topic “Electrical and Optical Properties of InP/GaInAs Heterojunction Bipolar Transistors for Digital Microwave Applications”. He has led the development of the analog migration tool for which he received an "IBM Innovation Award” . He is currently involved in the components design for a SiGe mmWave on-chip transceiver solution. He has taught multiple courses at the Technion, and is the author of many professional publications.
Evgeny Shumakher, PhD, is a researcher in the mmWave, analog mixed-signal group at the IBM HRL. He received the B.Sc., M.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees in Electrical Engineering from the Technion- Israel Institute of Technology, Haifa, Israel, in 2002, 2004 and 2010 respectively. He has worked for Intel (1999-2002) where he developed advanced digital circuits for the MPG and later for RAFAEL (2004-2007) where he was engaged in several project involving advanced mm-wave systems design for communication and radar applications. Currently, Evgeny also holds a lecturer position at the Technion EE dept. teaching "Introduction to Electrical Engineering". He is a recipient of numerous prestigious scholarships and awards, among which is the IEEE Photonic Society Graduate Student Fellowship awarded annually to 12 young scientists from all-over the globe for research excellence. He has over 30 publications in various journals and conference proceedings, and has co-authored one book chapter
