The relationship between the total water volume entering a lagoon during a characteristic tidal cycle (i.e., the prism) and the size of its inlet is well established empirically since the classic work of O'Brien and Jarrett widely cited in the geomorphic a ...
Fingerprint analysis is one of the most important methods used for personal identification of evidence found at a crime scene for forensic purposes. Using scanning electrochemical microscopy (SECM) imaging, researchers can visualize the ultrastructure of h ...
Lithium niobate is a key material for photonics with applications in optical modulators and light frequency converters. Present lithium niobate optical devices are realized in bulk lithium niobate single crystals while interests in higher integration and a ...
The synthesis of horizontal porous anodic alumina (PAA) structures with individually addressable channel systems is demonstrated. This was achieved by developing a multicontact design of aluminum finger structures (two to Five contacts) on silicon wafers. ...
We propose a mechanism for providing the incentives for reporting truthful feedback in a peer-to-peer system for exchanging services (or content). This mechanism is to complement reputation mechanisms that employ ratings' feedback on the various transactio ...
We analyzed along this work the feasibility to produce high quality alumina thin films by High Vacuum Chemical Vapor Deposition (HV-CVD). We study the influence of various parameters on the growth process and on the film quality, such as substrate temperat ...
Recently we found strong evidence in favor of a BCS-like condensation of excitons in 1T-TiSe2 [Cercellier , Phys. Rev. Lett. 99, 146403 (2007)]. Theoretical photoemission intensity maps have been generated by the spectral function calculated within the exc ...
Nanowire superconducting single photon detectors (SSPDs) [1] are characterized by very high sensitivity in the near infrared (detection efficiency η up to 30%, for a dark count rate DK of few Hz), speed (up to ∼1 GHz repetition rate) and time resolution (j ...
Combinatorial lithium niobate deposition on 150 mm naturally oxidized silicon (100) wafers in a high-vacuum chemical vapor deposition reactor using Li(OBut) and Nb(OEt)4(dmae) is presented. The novel precursor supply system allows individual spatial contro ...
Erbium-doped amorphous aluminum oxide layers deposited on Si or oxidized silicon substrates are promising construction pieces for future monolytic integrated optoelectronics devices. In a novel high-vacuum chemical vapor deposition setup the alumina films ...
