Direct observation of polarization distribution at nanoscale by scanning force microscopy across partially etched Pb(Zr,Ti)O-3 film ferroelectric capacitors with size 2x3 mum and preferential orientation (111) has revealed an anomalous polarization pattern ...
In this work, the properties (sheet-resistance, temperature coefficient and piezoresistance / gauge factor) and stability of thick-film resistors with low firing temperatures (525...650°C) are studied. To this end, two low-melting lead borosilicate glass c ...
The continuous downscaling of microelectronic circuits combined with increasing interest in ferroelectric thin films for non-volatile random access memories (FeRAM) is drawing great attention to small ferroelectric thin film structures. There are various c ...
Electrical resistance in carbon-fiber reinforced polymers has been shown experimentally to be a sensitive measure of internal damage. To quantify the dependence of electrical resistance on mechanical fiber damage at the micromechanical level, a numerical e ...
We studied polarization switching of 295 nm thick -oriented-Pb(Zr0.45Ti0.55)O-3 (PZT) thin-film capacitors through a polarization hysteresis loop and piezoelectric force microscopy (PFM) on top of the Pt electrode. Positive voltage pulses of 450 kV/cm ...
In this work, we have modified a low-temperature thick-film system previously developed for aluminium and aluminium alloy substrates in order to adapt it to ferritic and austenitic stainless steel, and glass substrates, which, unlike the common alumina sub ...
Capacitors in metal-insulator-metal structure have been fabricated with different bottom electrodes. It has been found that the observed losses are enormous at gigahertz frequencies unless due care is taken not only for the conductivity of the bottom elect ...
The aim of this thesis work is to study the spin-dependent transport in multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWNT). To do so, the electrical resistance of MWNT contacted between ferromagnetic electrodes has been measured, as a function of the contacts magnetic co ...
