With the continuous shrinking of devices dimensions in microelectronic circuits, it is becoming extremely desirable to integrate analog circuitry together with complex digital logic blocks. The noise generated by the digital parts in a mixed-signal integra ...
Wafer-scale nanostencil lithography (nSL) is used to define several types of silicon mechanical resonators, whose dimensions range from 20 μm down to 200 nm, monolithically integrated with CMOS circuits. We demonstrate the simultaneous patterning by nSL of ...
Radiation detectors based on the deposition of a 10 to 30 μm thick hydrogenated amorphous silicon (a-Si:H) sensor directly on top of integrated circuits have been developed. The performance of this detector technology has been assessed for the first time i ...
Different photocurable acrylates, including two hyperbranched monomers, are compared with an epoxy negative-tone photoresist (SU-8) with respect to their suitability for the fabrication of ultra-thick polymer microstructures in a photolithographic process. ...
Ceramic technologies such as thick-film and LTCC (Low Temperature Cofired Ceramic) are excellent platforms for the fabrication of mesoscale devices such as sensors, actuators, microreactors and MEMS packaging. This work presents two alternative screen-prin ...
We are witnessing a growing interest in Networks on Chips (NoC) that is related to the evolution of integrated circuit technology and to the growing requirements in performance and portability of electronic systems. Current integrated circuits contain seve ...
We demonstrate high-performance nanowire superconducting single photon detectors (SSPDs) on bN thin films grown at a temperature compatible with monolithic integration. NbN films ranging from 150nm to 3nm in thickness were deposited by dc magnetron sputter ...
Flash photolysis of caged compounds is one of the most powerful approaches to investigate the dynamic response of living cells. Monolithically integrated devices suitable for optical uncaging are in great demand since they greatly simplify the experiments ...
While customizable processors aim at combining the flexibility of general purpose processors with the speed and power advantages of custom circuits, commercially available processors are often limited by the inability to reconfigure the application-specifi ...
Coupled inductors can be used as tunable inductances. Employing coupled inductors in the output impedance matching network of an RF power amplifier leads to superior performance when operating in more than one frequency band. As proof of this concept, the ...
