NMR spectroscopy of single sub-nL ova with inductive ultra-compact single-chip probes

Giovanni Boero, Franck Vincent, Marco Grisi, Nicola Harris, Beatrice Volpe

Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy enables non-invasive chemical studies of intact living matter. However, the use of NMR at the volume scale typical of microorganisms is hindered by sensitivity limitations, and experiments on single intact orga ...

Microfabricated solenoids and Helmholtz coils for NMR spectroscopy of mammalian cells

Florian Maria Wurm, Pierre-André Besse, Radivoje Popovic, Franck Vincent, Martin Jordan, Mathieu Benjamin Stettler, Klaus Ehrmann

NMR-microprobes based on solenoids and Helmholtz coils have been microfabricated and NMR-spectra of mammalian cells have successfully been taken. The microfabrication technology developed for these probes consists of three electroplated copper levels for l ...

Advanced process of the magnetic core integration for the micro fluxgate magnetometer

Radivoje Popovic, Pavel Kejik, Franck Vincent, Predrag Drljaca

We present improved processing of the soft amorphous ferromagnetic material for the fully integrated fluxgate magnetometer. The additional steps of polishing, chemical thinning and annealing are introduced to preserve the original material characteristics ...

An Orthogonal Fluxgate-Type Magnetic Microsensor

Radivoje Popovic, Pavel Kejik, Franck Vincent, Ozge Zorlu

In this paper, we present a new microfabricated orthogonal fluxgate sensor structure. The sensor consists of an electroplated copper excitation rod surrounded by an electroplated permalloy layer and has planar pick-up coils for signal detection. The use of ...

Low-power 2-D fully integrated CMOS fluxgate magnetometer

Radivoje Popovic, Pavel Kejik, Franck Vincent, Predrag Drljaca

In this paper, we present a low-power, two-axis fluxgate magnetometer. The planar sensor is integrated in a standard CMOS process, which provides metal layers for the coils and electronics for the signal extraction and processing. The ferromagnetic core is ...

A novel planar magnetic sensor based on orthogonal fluxgate principle

Radivoje Popovic, Pavel Kejik, Franck Vincent, Ozge Zorlu

In this paper, we present a new planar fluxgate magnetometer structure. The sensor has the orthogonal fluxgate configuration which makes the detection part independent of the excitation mechanism. The sensor consists of a ferromagnetic cylindrical core cov ...
