This workshop will present recent breakthroughs in the design of Voltage Controlled Oscillators (VCOs) and frequency multipliers, with a focus on innovations spanning the microwave, mm-wave, and sub-THz frequency bands. As these components are critical enablers in emerging communication, radar, and sensing systems, the workshop will cover both theoretical insights and practical design strategies that push the boundaries of performance, integration, and power efficiency. Bringing together leading experts from both academia and industry, the sessions will highlight state-of-the-art circuit techniques, emerging device technologies, and system-level considerations. Presentations will explore various aspects of VCO and frequency multiplier design, aiming to achieve low noise, wide tuning range, and high efficiency. The workshop will also address key challenges in scaling designs to higher frequencies and more compact integration.
