Microresonators are fundamental building blocks of any photonic integrated circuit, as they can be used as filters, modulators, sensors, and to enhance light emission. If these resonators are suspended and are free to oscillate, we can exploit the interact ...
The revolution of information-technology owes to silicon-based complementary-metal-oxide (CMOS) technology. However, CMOS technology approaches its physical limitation hardening the further progress of memory devices as well as computing paradigm requiring ...
For the back-end microfabrication in integrated circuits and for the manufacturing of light emitting diodes, proximity mask-aligner lithography is still the tool of choice, due to its simplicity and low costs. However, the downscaling of functional element ...
The slowdown of Moore's law, which has been the driving force of the electronics industry over the last 5 decades, is causing serious problem to Integrated Circuits (ICs) improvements. Technology scaling is becoming more and more complex and fabrication co ...
Today, the design of electronic systems is largely automated. The practice of using software automation technologies for the design of electronic hardware is commonly referred to as Electronic Design Automation (EDA). EDA comprises a large set of tools, fr ...
This multidisciplinary research work aims to investigate the optimized information extraction from signals or data volumes and to develop tailored hardware implementations that trade-off the complexity of data acquisition with that of data processing, conc ...
A new method for safe electrical neural stimulation is proposed. A negative feedback is used to automatically produce short anodic pulses according to the remaining voltage. The period of the short anodic pulses varies according to the remaining voltage. T ...
Designing digital circuits well is notoriously difficult. This difficulty stems in part from the very
many degrees of freedom inherent in circuit design, typically coupled with the need to satisfy
various constraints. In this thesis, we demonstrate how for ...
Bi-directional brain-machine interfaces (BBMIs) that can capture electrophysiological signals and provide feedback through electrical stimulation are emerging tools with various applica-tions in fundamental neuroscience research as well as in clinical trea ...
The current work focuses on the optimal design of biomass supply chains, addressing the conversion of raw materials into useful services. The latter include not only heat and power but also synthetic bio-based fuels (e.g. bio-SNG). Optimally pre-designed p ...
