Fabrication and Characterization of Freestanding Single Crystal Diamond and Silicon Microresonators

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 ...

Towards a coherent database of thermal boundary conductance at metal/dielectric interfaces

Ludger Weber, Maïté Blank

The thermal boundary conductance (TBC) of metal/dielectric couples was measured for a large variety of metals on silicon, sapphire, and diamond using time domain thermoreflectance and compared to data previously obtained on diamond. In the case of silicon, ...

H-terminated polycrystalline diamond p-channel transistors on GaN-on-Silicon

Elison de Nazareth Matioli, Remco Franciscus Peter van Erp, Riyaz Mohammed Abdul Khadar, Mehdi Naamoun

In many semiconductor technologies, including GaN, the lack of p-channel devices is a major obstacle for complementary operations. Here, we demonstrate high-performance polycrystalline diamond p-channel transistors on GaN-on-Si. Following the optimization ...

Heat-transfer at the interface between a metal and a non-metal: influence of ultra-thin interlayers, interface chemistry and atomic order

Maïté Blank

The Thermal Boundary Conductance (TBC) at the interface between metals and dielectrics is of key importance for heat transport in structures heterogeneous on a scale from 100 µm downwards. In this thesis the TBC of a large number of metal/dielectric couple ...

Water: its influence on the formation and crystallization of amorphous calcium carbonate

Huachuan Du

Nature produces CaCO3-based materials that display fascinating mechanical properties. These properties are a result of the exquisite control over the formation of CaCO3 crystals that nature possesses. Such a high level of control is likely achieved, at lea ...

Role of the electron-phonon coupling on the thermal boundary conductance of metal/diamond interfaces with nanometric interlayers

Ludger Weber, Maïté Blank, Gionata Schneider

Thermal boundary conductance (TBC) of the Ag/diamond and Au/diamond interfaces with a nanometer-thick interface layer of either nickel or molybdenum is measured by time domain thermoreflectance and modeled based on a 3-layer two-temperature model (3l-TTM). ...
