dc.description.abstractNuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) Spectroscopy is used intensively along with other ancillary spectroscopic and characterization techniques. The design and implementation of High Throughput NMR Spectroscopy is a key challenge to accelerate the drug discovery process. On the other hand, the current conventional NMR technologies are expensive and bulky. The development of novel handheld NMR spectroscopy is a key challenge towards NMR spectroscopy for Point-of-Care (PoC) diagnostics applications. This thesis addresses the above-mentioned challenges of High Throughput NMR Spectroscopy and Handheld NMR spectroscopy by developing new integrated circuits dedicated to NMR spectroscopy using Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor (CMOS) technology. Simulation and characterization results were also used to prove the functionality and applicability of the proposed techniques. We have designed two CMOS chips using 0.13-m technology, first chip includes number of new vertical microcoils and LNA with 780 pV/Hz at 300 MHz and the second one is a new dual-path NMR receiver.
