Overview on low temperature co-fired ceramic sensors

Thomas Maeder

Low Temperature Co-fired Ceramics (LTCC) is one of the microelectronic techniques. This technology was initially developed as an alternative to Printed Circuit Boards (PCB) and classical thick-film technology, and it has found application in the fabricatio ...

Low temperature integration methods using conductive adhesives and dry film photoresist for flexible electronics

Andres Felipe Vasquez Quintero

This thesis provides reliable methods and building blocks in order to realize smart SiF by combining Si- with foil-based components on flexible substrates. Building blocks such as 2-D and 3-D electrical interconnections, hybrid integration techniques and e ...

Hybrid stretchable circuits on silicone substrate

Stéphanie Lacour

When rigid and stretchable components are integrated onto a single elastic carrier substrate, large strain heterogeneities appear in the vicinity of the deformable-non-deformable interfaces. In this paper, we report on a generic approach to manufacture hyb ...

Low-Pressure Chemical Vapor Deposited Zinc Oxide Films

Laura Ding

Polycrystalline zinc oxide (ZnO) films, prepared by low-pressure chemical vapor deposition are investigated in this thesis. ZnO belongs to the class of transparent conductive oxide materials, as it is transparent to light from the visible to the near-infra ...

A miniaturised autonomous sensor based on nanowire materials platform: the SiNAPS mote

Maher Kayal, Naser Khosro Pour

A micro-power energy harvesting system based on core(crystalline Si)-shell(amorphous Si) nanowire solar cells together with a nanowire-modified CMOS sensing platform have been developed to be used in a dust-sized autonomous chemical sensor node. The mote ( ...

Comparison of amorphous silicon absorber materials: Light-induced degradation and solar cell efficiency

Christophe Ballif, Franz-Josef Haug, Jan-Willem Alexander Schüttauf, Matthieu Despeisse, Grégory Bugnon, Michael Elias Stückelberger

Several amorphous silicon (a-Si:H) deposition conditions have been reported to produce films that degrade least under light soaking when incorporated into a-Si:H solar cells. However, a systematic comparison of these a-Si:H materials has never been present ...
