While working in the IHP’s Circuit Design department I had support from many
colleagues. At this place I want to thank those who helped me with the thesis.
First of all, I want to thank to my supervisor Prof. Rolf Kraemer who offered me the
opportunity to work at IHP and supported my work ever since.
I especially want to thank Dr. J. Christoph Scheytt who supported my work and was always
available for many useful discussions.
I wish to thank all my colleagues from the project and department for their help, useful
discussions, support and friendship. I thank Dr. Wolfgang Winkler, Dr. Frank Herzel, Dr.
Eckhard Graß, Mohamed Elkhouly, Dr. Prabir Datta, Dr. Yaoming Sun, Dr. Miloš Krstić,
Miroslav Marinković, Johannes Borngräber, Maxim Piz, Dr. Chang-Soon Choi, Dr. Klaus
Schmalz, Dr. Gerhard Fischer, Falk Korndörfer, Markus Ehrig, Markus Petri and Frank
Popiela.
Želim na ovom mjestu da se zahvalim za svu ljubav i podršku koju sam imao od moje
majke i brata, a naročito za njihovu podršku za vrijeme mojih studija.
Finally, my love and gratitude go to my wife Izabela for her great help, support and love.
Writing this thesis was possible thanks to her constant support. My thanks go to my son
Adam, who brings me joy every day.
