Thin films of oxide materials are widely used for various types of applications. The selection of an appropriate deposition method depends on the aimed material and application. We review here a high vacuum chemical vapour deposition (HV-CVD) method, which ...
This work consists in an experimental study of the main parameters governing the transport of heat across an interface between two solids, when it is dominated by phonons. The main experimental tool used is Time-Domain ThermoReflectance (TDTR), which is an ...
The small-molecule organic semiconductor 2,9-di-decyl-dinaphtho-[2,3-b: 2',3'-f]-thieno[3,2-b]-thiophene (C-10-DNTT) was used to fabricate bottom-gate, top-contact thin-film transistors (TFTs) in which the semiconductor layer was prepared either by vacuum ...
The rational synthesis of novel materials requires the control over the arrangement of matter in order to meet the desired properties for applications and devices. Ultimately, control means to define the place of each atom and determine its chemical state, ...
We report a positive exchange bias in thin film multilayers produced with nano-oxide layer. The positive exchange bias resulted from an antiferromagnetic interfacial exchange coupling between the ferromagnetic CoFe and the antiferromagnetic CoO layers, whi ...
This paper presents a fabrication process for arrays of high-aspect-ratio micropillar electrodes, which are freestanding 3D structures that feature metal sidewalls connected to passivated planar wires. Facing vertical electrodes are considered to be a key ...
Therapeutic Drug Monitoring (TDM) is considered one of the most successful approaches to personalized medicine. However, the accuracy requirements on the quantification of drug concentration and the challenges in the dose adjustment limit the application o ...
Femtosecond laser irradiation applied to Fused Silica (the amorphous form of SiO2) defines a novel technology platform for highly integrated all-optical microsystems and beyond. In contrast with common approaches that rely on combining materials to achieve ...
X-ray irradiation is shown to trigger the deposition of Cu from solution, at room temperature, on a wide variety of insulating substrates: glass, passivated Si, TiN/Ti/SiO2/Si and photoresists like PMMA and SU-8. The process is suitable for patterning and ...
