Stencil lithography is an innovative method for patterning that has a great flexibility from many points of view. It is based on shadow mask evaporation using thin silicon nitride membranes that allow the patterning of sub-100 nm features up to 100 μm in a ...
Using surface micromachining technology, we fabricated nanofluidic devices with channels down to 10̂nm deep, 200̂nm wide and up to 8̂cm long. We demonstrated that different materials, such as silicon nitride, polysilicon and silicon dioxide, combined with ...
Positively charged defects induced by protons at the Si(100)-SiO2 interface are studied through density-functional calculations and realistic interface models. Protons generally preserve the bonding network, but cause the spontaneous breaking of strained b ...
We report on a 2×2 SOI switch, based on the plasma dispersion effect, reaching 5 MHz of switching frequency. Measured insertion losses, extinction ratio and crosstalk at 1300 nm and 1550 nm are presented and discussed. ...
Silicon dioxide (SiO2) films grown on silicon monocrystal (Si) substrates form the gate oxides in current Si-based microelectronics devices. The understanding at the atomic scale of both the silicon oxidation process and the properties of the Si(100)-SiO2 ...
We report on the growth and properties of GaN films grown on Si(111) substrates by molecular beam epitaxy using ammonia. The properties of the layers show that our growth procedure is very efficient in order to overcome the difficulties encountered during ...
We present a lamellar grating interferometer realized with microelectromechanical system technology. It is used as a time-scanning Fourier-transform spectrometer. The motion is carried out by an electrostatic comb drive actuator fabricated by silicon micro ...
We address the rate of O-2 diffusion through the oxide layer at Si-SiO2 interfaces using an atomic-scale approach. In particular, we investigate the combined effect of a percolative diffusion mechanism and of a dense oxide layer located close to the silico ...
