LTCC integrated miniature Rb discharge lamp module for stable optical pumping in miniature atomic clocks and magnetometers

Herbert Shea, Peter Ryser, Thomas Maeder, Fabrizio Vecchio, Vinu Lalgudi Venkatraman

We report here on an integrated mini-lamp module (15x26x4 mm3) with a microfabricated rf-powered Rb dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) lamp (10x10x3 mm3) positioned on top of a 0.6 mm thick (thickness adjustable) 4-layer LTCC (Low Temperature Co-fired Cera ...

Long-term mechanical reliability of ceramic thick-film circuits and mechanical sensors under static load

Peter Ryser, Thomas Maeder, Caroline Jacq

In this work, we study the long-term mechanical strength under static load - i.e. static fatigue performance or resistance to subcritical crack growth - of ceramic thick-film circuits, namely how the static fatigue of the substrate is affected by the prese ...

Prototyping a High-Frequency Inductive Magnetic Sensor Using the Nonconventional, Low-Temperature Co-Fired Ceramic Technology for Use in ITER

Jean-Marc Moret, Duccio Testa, René Chavan, Jonathan Bryan Lister, Matthieu Toussaint, Gilbert Tonetti, Thomas Maeder, Jérôme Guterl

The ITER high-frequency (HF) magnetic sensor is currently intended to be a conventional, Mirnov-type, pickup coil, designed to provide measurements of magnetic instabilities with magnitude as low as |dB|~10e-4G at the position of the sensors and up to freq ...

Assessment of the ITER High-Frequency Magnetic Diagnostic Set

Jean-Marc Moret, Duccio Testa, René Chavan, Jonathan Bryan Lister, Matthieu Toussaint, Gilbert Tonetti, Thomas Maeder, Albert Perez, Francisco Sanchez, Jérôme Guterl

The ITER high-frequency (HF) magnetic diagnostic system has to provide essential measurements of MHD instabilities with |deltaBmeas/BPOL|~1e-4 (~1G) for frequencies up to 2MHz to resolve toroidal mode numbers (n) in the range |n|=10 to |n|=50. A review of ...

Dispensing and Hermetic Sealing Rb in a Miniature Reference Cell for Integrated Atomic Clocks

Herbert Shea, Peter Ryser, Thomas Maeder, Fabrizio Vecchio, Vinu Lalgudi Venkatraman

An innovative method for filling and sealing the reference cell for a Rubidium (Rb) integrated atomic clock is presented. We used a simple, low-temperature solder sealing technique for producing mini-cells of the size of 12 x 10 x 2 mm, suitable for Rb min ...

Fabrication of Polymer-Based Micro Devices: Formulation and Study of the Paste

Peter Ryser, Thomas Maeder, Nathalie Sophie Adeline Serra, Olivier Gentsch

We investigate in the present work the fabrication of polymer-based micro-fluidic and micro-mechanical devices using sacrificial, resistive/conductive pastes, through a screen-printing process. An organic sacrificial paste is first screen-printed onto a su ...
