We investigate the dielectric permittivity of SiO2 on Si(100) substrates using a first-principles approach. It is shown that both the static and high-frequency dielectric constants of the oxide overlayer increase when the oxide thickness is reduced. This b ...
The present thesis deals with new composite photoresists for the UV-LIGA and microstereolithography microfabrication processes. The aim is to build functional 3D objects, with high aspect ratio. Two projects have been investigated in parallel for each micr ...
We investigate at the atomic scale the oxygen diffusion process occurring during silicon oxidation. First, we address the energetics of several oxygen species in the oxide using density-functional calculations. Our results support the interstitial O-2 mole ...
Energy transfer between nanoscale particles is demonstrated for a Gold/rare-earth oxide nanocomposite. The gold nanoparticle acts as an antenna, absorbing light that can then be transferred to the bound rare-earth oxide (see Figure), enhancing the oxide lu ...
The lead magnesium niobate [Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O-3 or PMN], and its solid solutions with lead titanate (PbTiO3 or PT), are of great interest because of their high electromechanical properties. At large PMN content, these materials exhibit relaxor characteristic ...
High-speed images of bubbly flow coupled with simultaneous passive acoustic measurements were carried out in a bubble column staged with structured fibrous catalysts. Local observations made with a high-speed camera system allow a detailed understanding of ...
We address the rate of O-2 diffusion through the oxide layer at Si-SiO2 interfaces using an atomic-scale approach. In particular, we investigate the combined effect of a percolative diffusion mechanism and of a dense oxide layer located close to the silico ...
We examine, in this work, the integration and high-strain response of piezoresistive thick-film resistors on titanium and titanium alloy, as compared with ferritic stainless steel and the standard alumina substrates. In general, titanium and its alloys are ...
Arsenic derived from natural sources occurs in groundwater in many countries, affecting the health of millions of people. The combined effects of As(V) reduction and diagenesis of iron oxide minerals on arsenic mobility are investigated in this study by co ...
Thick film resistors are prepared as pastes, which are screen-printed and fired on dielectric substrates such as alumina and widely used in hybrid circuits. The final resistor properties are mostly influenced by the firing conditions and the interactions b ...
