Impact of tunneling anisotropy on the conductivity of nanorod dispersions

Claudio Grimaldi, Biagio Nigro

While the tunneling conductance between two spherical-like conducting particles depends on the relative interparticle distance, the wave function overlap between states of two rodlike particles, and so the tunneling conductance, depends also on the relativ ...

A compact and low loss Y-junction for submicron silicon waveguide

Yi Zhang, Christophe Marcel Georges Galland

We designed a compact, low-loss and wavelength insensitive Y-junction for submicron silicon waveguide using finite difference time-domain (FDTD) simulation and particle swarm optimization (PSO), and fabricated the device in a 248 nm complementary metal-oxi ...

Guessing the fingerings from musical recordings

Paolo Prandoni, Arnaud Latty, Frederike Dümbgen

Synopsis: This project is about using musical recordings of string instruments to determine on which strings notes have been played. It includes the study of the spectral content of the recordings and the development of a robust classifica ...

Effect of hole-shape irregularities on photonic crystal waveguides

Vincenzo Savona, Momchil Minkov

The effect of irregular hole shape on the spectrum and radiation losses of a photonic crystal waveguide is studied using Bloch-mode expansion. Deviations from a circular hole are characterized by a radius fluctuation amplitude and correlation angle. It is ...

Toward Reliable MR-Based Brain Structure Morphometry

Bénédicte Marie Maréchal

Dementing neurodegenerative disorders have more and more prominent public health implications with the most frequent cause being the currently non reversible Alzheimer's Disease (AD). However, over the past 15 years, an abundant literature has demonstrated ...

Two-Photon Excited Fluorescence Enhancement for Ultrasensitive DNA Detection on Large-Area Gold Nanopatterns

Francesco Stellacci

Ultrasensitive DNA detection using enhanced two-photon excited fluorescence: DNA detection systems formed on a highly regular gold nanopattern over a large area show enhanced sensitivity from high to ultralow concentrations (similar to 10-11 M, see figure) ...

Epitaxial piezoelectric MEMS on silicon

Nico de Rooij, Danick Briand, Pattanaphong Janphuang, Don Isarakorn

This paper reports on the microfabrication and characterization of piezoelectric MEMS structures based on epitaxial Pb(Zr0.2Ti0.8)O-3 (PZT) thin films grown on silicon wafers. Membranes and cantilevers are realized using a sequence of microfabrication proc ...

Resonant-Body Fin-FETs with sub-nW power consumption

Mihai Adrian Ionescu, Andrea Lovera, Dimitrios Tsamados, Daniel Grogg, Sebastian Thimotee Bartsch

This paper presents, for the first time, experimental evidence on resonant-body Fin-FETs (RB-FinFET) with two independent lateral gates, operated from weak to strong inversion, which enables unique trade-off between power consumption and gain. Resonance fr ...
