Electrical contactors are relays for interputing high currents (up to 2000 A). They consist of three main distinct parts: the low voltage circuit, the high voltage circuit and the linear actuator that moves the contact. The purpose of this thesis is to des ...
This work presents analyses and developments in nanofabrication using stencil lithography and its application for electronics and biosensing. Metallic nanostructures are fabricated using stencil lithography studying the pattern transfer from the stencil to ...

Semiconductor nanowires are currently at the forefront of research in the areas of nanoelectronics and energy conversion. In all these studies, realising electrical contacts and statistically relevant measurements is a key issue. We propose a method that e ...
In this letter, we propose to introduce the notion of equivalent capacitance and to generalize the so-called equivalent-thickness concept to model arbitrary shapes of lightly doped nonplanar multigate MOSFETs, without the need to introduce any unphysical p ...
Electrical contacts between nanoengineered systems are expected to constitute the basic building blocks of future nanoscale electronics. However, the accurate characterization and understanding of electrical contacts at the nanoscale is an experimentally c ...
The invention relates to a device comprising a conductive surface (12) and electrical contacts (14) by which an electric current is able to be passed. Said electrical contacts (14) comprise conductive seeds (16) deposited on the conductive surface (12), an ...
We have realized a flexible force sensor, composed of four redundant capacitors, the operation of which is based on the measurement of a load-induced capacitance change. We use polyimide both as flexible substrate and as elastic dielectric between two leve ...
