Abstract: A semiconductor device provides a metal contact, a DNA layer, wherein the metal layer and the DNA layer are adapted to form a Schottky barrier junction there between, and a conductive contact with the DNA layer.
Abstract: A digital transmission device for dynamically allocating bandwidth comprises a plurality of peripheral cards, that require different amounts of system bandwidth, and an allocation module. The allocation module is connected to the plurality of peripheral cards by transmission channels and assigns incremental bandwidths to the cards based upon the size of the cards' payload to be transmitted.

Abstract: A pilot signal is generated and injected into the input (108) of a signal modulator (104). The harmonic signal of a pilot signal produced at the output (110) and due to the non-linear transfer function of the signal modulator (104) is coherently sampled in the time domain to produce a plurality of digital samples. The digital samples are averaged to produce an average harmonic signal value. The bias voltage at which the signal modulator (104) is biased is adjusted to minimize the magnitude of the average harmonic signal value.
