The self-assembly of soft matter, such as block copolymers or colloids, allows fine tuning of structure formation on the 10 - 500 nm length scale and therefore enables the design of materials with tunable optical response. We present strategies on how to e ...
A recommender system is a Web technology that proactively suggests items of interest to users based on their objective behavior or explicitly stated preferences. Evaluations of recommender systems (RS) have traditionally focused on the performance of algor ...
This paper outlines the theoretical background of the punching shear provisions implemented in the fib Model Code 2010 and presents a practical example of its applica tion. It is the aim to explain the mechanical model that forms the basis of the punching ...
The design of 3-dimensional integrated circuits requires new specialized tools, methods and flows. Whereas some tools are on the market and some design flows for standard ICs are extended to handle die stacking and through-silicon vias, much R&D has still ...
Design is a universal concept. It links the immaterial world of concepts to the physical world. It is an essential area of human experience, expertise, and knowledge, which deals with our ability to mold our environment to satisfy material and spiritual ne ...
In late 2007 the ALICE design studio at EPFL was invited by the Swiss government to participate as part of the Swiss exhibition in the Swiss Pavilion in the Giardini in the Venice Architecture Biennale 2008. The exhibition was to expose research and teachi ...
As the world becomes more interdependent and computing grows more collaborative, there is a need for new abstractions and tools to help users work together. We recently introduced entangled queries – a mechanism for information exchange between database qu ...
The first solution-processed depleted bulk heterojunction colloidal quantum dot solar cells are presented. The architecture allows high absorption with full depletion, thereby breaking the photon absorption/carrier extraction compromise inherent in planar ...
This book addresses the impact of nanotechnologies on the design of electronic systems. Coverage includes technologies ranging from nanoelectronics to sensing and micro/nanofluidics, and encompassing techniques that bridge the gap between engineering and b ...
This paper reports on the design, fabrication and test of an integrated colloid micropropulsion system for spacecraft attitude control using the ionic liquid EMI-BF4 as fuel. The principle of operation of the thruster is identical to electrospray ionizatio ...
