Study and characterization of silicon metal alloys systems for the reactive infiltration process of ceramic matrix composites

Manoj Kondibhau Naikade

Silicon infiltrated silicon carbide (SiSiC) is one of the most promising and economical non-oxide ceramic matrix composites for high-temperature structural applications. In recent years infiltration by Si-alloys instead of pure Si has become popular to avo ...

X-Band Aom On Chip

Tobias Kippenberg, Anat Siddharth, Junqiu Liu

Silicon Nitride integrated photonic circuits have drawn much attention owing to its ultra-low loss and large Kerr nonlinearity. However, the lack of Pockels effect makes it difficult to be modulated clectro-optically, which posts a major challenge for the ...

Quasi-vertical GaN-on-Si reverse blocking power MOSFETs

Elison de Nazareth Matioli, Alessandro Floriduz, Riyaz Mohammed Abdul Khadar, Chao Liu

We demonstrate quasi-vertical reverse blocking (RB) MOSFETs on 6.7 mu m thick GaN grown on a 6 inch Si substrate by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition. The RB capability was achieved by replacing the ohmic drain with a quasi-vertical Schottky drain, re ...

The Michelangelo step: removing scalloping and tapering effects in high aspect ratio through silicon vias

Edoardo Charbon, Sandro Carrara, Simone Frasca, Rebecca Camilla Leghziel

We present here, for the first time, a fabrication technique that allows manufacturing scallop free, non-tapered, high aspect ratio in through-silicon vias (TSVs) on silicon wafers. TSVs are among major technology players in modern high-volume manufacturin ...

p-NiO junction termination extensions for GaN power devices

Elison de Nazareth Matioli, Alessandro Floriduz, Riyaz Mohammed Abdul Khadar, Taifang Wang

We report the demonstration of p-NiO layers as junction termination extensions (JTEs) for realizing high-performance GaN power devices. The p-NiO was deposited by RF sputtering, a flexible process which enables to achieve high hole densities. In this work, ...

A recalculation of the efficiency limit in crystalline Si/Si tandem solar cells

Christophe Ballif, Franz-Josef Haug

We determine the limiting efficiency for monolithic tandem solar cells that employ crystalline silicon for the top-cell as well as for the bottom cell. In such a design, the top-cell extends over the region of very high generation rate that forms at the fr ...

Impact of oxygen content in powders on the morphology of the laser molten tracks in preparation for additive manufacturing of silicon

Patrik Willi Hoffmann, Lucas Güniat, Marc Leparoux

Powder additive pulsed Nd:YAG laser (wavelength 1064 nm), with the aim of preparing AM of such material. The influence of oxygen content in the initial silicon powders on the continuous tracks morphology was investigated. It was found that the initial oxyg ...
