Non-reciprocal acoustic devices based on linear or angular momentum biasing

A non-reciprocal acoustic device that accomplishes non-reciprocity via linear or angular-momentum bias. The non-reciprocal acoustic device includes an azimuthally symmetric or planar acoustical cavity (e.g., ring cavity), where the cavity is biased by impo ...

Reconfigurable electronics based on metal-insulator transition

Wolfgang Amadeus Vitale

The vast majority of disruptive innovations in science and technology has been originated from the discovery of a new material or the way its properties have been exploited to create novel devices and systems. New advanced nanomaterials will have a lasting ...

Investigation of the metal-insulator transition in VO2 for Electronic Switches with Sub-1mV/Decade Steep Subthreshold Slope

Mihai Adrian Ionescu, Clara-Fausta Moldovan, Josef Andreas Schuler, Wolfgang Amadeus Vitale, Antonio Paone

We report a thorough investigation of the electrically-induced metal-insulator transition in vanadium dioxide (VO2) for abrupt switching in 2-terminal devices (0.24 mV/dec at 25 °C, 0.38 mV/dec at 50 °C). We exploit the electrothermal actuation model based ...

Look, no beacons! Optimal all-in-one EchoSLAM

Martin Vetterli, Ivan Dokmanic, Miranda Krekovic

We study the problem of simultaneously reconstructing a polygonal room and a trajectory of a device equipped with a (nearly) collocated omnidirectional source and receiver. The device measures arrival times of echoes of pulses emitted by the source and pic ...

Modification of PDMS to fabricate PLGA microparticles by a double emulsion method in a single microfluidic device

Philippe Renaud, Shahin Bonakdar, Leila Montazeri

We present an easy, durable method to generate a partially hydrophilic/hydrophobic poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) microfluidic device. The functionality of this device was assessed in a double flow focusing design to fabricate core–shell structured poly(lac ...
