Thermal Spin Transfer Torque and Transverse Spin Relaxation in Spin Valves

Haiming Yu

Spin caloritronics, i.e., the addition of thermal effects to the electrical and magnetic properties of nanostructures, has recently seen a rapid development. It has been predicted that a heat current can exert a spin torque on the magnetization in a nanost ...

SWNT array resonant gate MOS transistor

Mihai Adrian Ionescu, Anupama Arun

We show that thin horizontal arrays of single wall carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) suspended above the channel of silicon MOSFETs can be used as vibrating gate electrodes. This new class of nano-electromechanical system (NEMS) combines the unique mechanical and e ...

Uniaxially tensile strained accumulation-mode gate-all-around Si nanowire nMOSFETs

Mihai Adrian Ionescu, Didier Bouvet, Wladyslaw Grabinski, Mohammad Najmzadeh

In this work we report an experimental study on accumulation-mode (AM) gate-all-around (GAA) nMOSFETs based on silicon nanowires with uniaxial tensile strain. Their electrical characteristics are studied from room temperature up to ~400 K and carrier mobil ...

A case study of the effect of grain size on the oxygen permeation flux of BSCF disk-shaped membrane fabricated by thermoplastic processing

Stefan Diethelm

Oxygen permeability measurements of Ba0.5Sr0.5Co0.8Fe0.2O3−δ (BSCF) disk shaped membranes fabricated by thermoplastic processing and sintered at different temperatures (1000–1100 °C), showed no influence of the grain size on the oxygen permeation fluxes. T ...

Current Induced Magnetization Dynamics in Electrodeposited Nanostructures

Elena Murè

In this thesis we make use of the Spin Transfer Torque effect from a continuous microwave current to induce and study the spin dynamics of an individual sub-100 nm nanostructure. The idea that an electrical current can carry a spin angular momentum was int ...

Capacitive flexible force sensor

Martinus Gijs, Jagoda Anna Dobrzynska

We have realized a flexible force sensor, composed of four redundant capacitors, the operation of which is based on the measurement of a load-induced capacitance change. We use polyimide both as flexible substrate and as elastic dielectric between two leve ...

Early visual processing deficits in the elderly: anterior increases and posterior decreases of electrical source activity

Michael Herzog, Maya Roinishvili, Gijs Plomp

We compared temporal processing in elderly and young controls using EEG and electrical neuroimaging. Subjects discriminated the offset direction of Vernier stimuli in four conditions: Vernier only, mask only, Vernier immediately followed by a mask, and Ver ...
