The authors describe techniques to make fast, sub-nanosecond time resolution solid-state detector systems using sensors with 3D electrodes, current amplifiers, constant-fraction comparators or fast wave-form recorders, and some of the next steps to reach s ...
This paper presents a new fabrication method to manufacture alkali reference cells having dimensions larger than standard micromachined cells and smaller than glass-blown ones, for use in compact atomic devices such as vapour-cell atomic clocks or magnetom ...
In the present work, a label-free, contactless and capacitive immunosensor is developed using impedance spectroscopy, in the aim to perform low-cost immunoassays. Chapter 1 puts this work in perspective with some existing techniques, while a presentation o ...
A method for extracting in real-time the position and size of liver vessels from 2D ultrasound images is described. It proceeds in two steps. Starting with a rough localization of the vessels using the scale-space theory, seed points are defined. Then, ves ...
The development of wireless and mobile communication in the last decade led to the elaboration of new components based on thin films with continually increasing performance and reduced fabrication cost. A fundamental element for mobile communication is the ...
Micro-system for active vibratory insulation, characterised in that it comprises a stand which includes a frame (1) and at least two beams (2a, 2b) which interlock and carry or are intended to carry an element requiring stabilisation (3), said beams (2a, 2 ...
This paper investigates the particular problem of matrices appearing during the modeling of Integrated Circuits with Finite Integration Technique (FIT) method. We present the key points of FIT approach followed by an illustration of the structure and the p ...
In contrast to most other building materials the strength of glass is not a material parameter, but rather a combination of the material treatment and the load position effects. Structural glass elements are produced with heat treatment when compressive re ...
The subject of the work presented here is the study of the acoustical ray method, which aims at describing a pressure field by an analogy with light rays. The concept of a wave is therefore replaced by the concept of "acoustical rays", whose paths through ...
A device for monitoring the adsorption of target molecules on a substrate, the device comprising a substrate (1), at least a portion of which is formed as a thin dielectric layer. A first, modified surface (2) of the layer has ionizable groups of the subst ...
