Biodegradable Wireless Microheaters for Transient Biomedical Implants

Jürgen Brugger, Giovanni Boero, Matthieu Jean Michel Rüegg, Remo Blum

Transient electronics show a great potential in the field of bioresorbable medical implants, for applications such as localized drug delivery for wound healing or following a surgical procedure. Once their function is fulfilled, such implants naturally deg ...

Enhancing solar disinfection of water in PET bottles by optimized in-situ formation of iron oxide films. From heterogeneous to homogeneous action modes with H2O2 vs. O-2 - Part 2: Direct use of (natural) iron oxides

César Pulgarin, Sami Rtimi, Stefanos Giannakis, Sakine Shekoohiyan

Solar disinfection (SODIS) is a well-accepted intervention method, leading to an improvement in contaminated water sources. In this work, we attempted to further enhance the bacterial inactivation process during light exposure. By means of iron oxide addit ...

Physical vapour deposition of cyanine salts and their first application in organic electronic devices

Frank Nüesch, Jakob Heier, Antonia Neels, Léo Duchêne, Donatas Gesevicius

A symmetrical trimethine indocyanine dye chromophore was modified with the bistriflylimide anion to study the changes in Coulomb interactions, thermal stability and the volatility of the organic salt. The bulky bistriflylimide anion minimizes electrostatic ...

The Influence of Microstructure on Nanomechanical and Diffusion Barrier Properties of Thin PECVD SiOx Films Deposited on Parylene C Substrates

Ivo Furno, Yves Leterrier, Matthias Van Gompel, David Framil Carpeno

Plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) was used to deposit SiOx thin films of varying thicknesses on parylene C substrates, using hexamethyldisiloxane (HMDSO) as a precursor. The microstructure of SiOx coatings was analyzed using X-ray photoemis ...

Coatings with tailored electronic and optical properties for advanced glazing

Olivia Valérie Charlotte Bouvard

Modern envelope glazing relies on nanoscale coatings to meet a range of specific needs. Low emissivity coatings can improve the thermal performance of glazing thanks to a thin metallic film. However, the conductive nature of this layer leads to an attenuat ...

Wide-Field Spectral Super-Resolution Mapping of Optically Active Defects in Hexagonal Boron Nitride

Aleksandra Radenovic, Vytautas Navikas, Evgenii Glushkov, Jiandong Feng, Jean Camille Benjamin Comtet

Point defects can have significant impact on the mechanical, electronic, and optical properties of materials. The development of robust, multidimensional, high-throughput, and large-scale characterization techniques of defects is thus crucial for the estab ...

Biodegradable Frequency‐Selective Magnesium Radio‐Frequency Microresonators for Transient Biomedical Implants

Jürgen Brugger, Giovanni Boero, Matthieu Jean Michel Rüegg, Remo Blum

Bioresorbable implantable medical devices show a great potential for applications requiring medical care over well‐defined periods of time. Once their function is fulfilled, such implants naturally degrade and resorb in the body, which eliminates adverse l ...

Bistable silicon photonic MEMS switches

We present the design of a non-volatile, bistable silicon photonic MEMS switch. The switch architecture builds on our previously demonstrated silicon photonic MEMS switch unit cell, using vertically movable adiabatic couplers. We here propose to exploit co ...

Modelling of tungsten erosion and deposition in the divertor of JET-ILW in comparison to experimental findings

Olivier Sauter, Ambrogio Fasoli, Basil Duval, Stefano Coda, Jonathan Graves, Yves Martin, Duccio Testa, Patrick Blanchard, Alessandro Pau, Cristian Sommariva, Henri Weisen, Richard Pitts, Yann Camenen, Jan Horacek, Javier García Hernández, Marco Wischmeier, Nicola Vianello, Mikhail Maslov, Federico Nespoli, Yao Zhou, David Pfefferlé, Davide Galassi, Antonio José Pereira de Figueiredo, Jonathan Marc Philippe Faustin, Liang Yao, Dalziel Joseph Wilson, Hamish William Patten, Samuel Lanthaler, Bernhard Sieglin, Otto Asunta

The erosion, transport and deposition of tungsten in the outer divertor of JET-ILW has been studied for an H-Mode discharge with low frequency ELMs. For this specific case with an inter-ELM electron temperature at the strike point of about 20 eV, tungsten ...

Ex-situ experimental benchmarking of solid oxide fuel cell metal interconnects

Jan Van Herle, Manuel Bianco

Solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) can convert hydrocarbon fuels, such as methane, into heat and electricity with a high conversion efficiency. The fuel flexibility of the SOFC derives from the high operating temperature (600-900 °C). Such a high temperature s ...
