Key parameters of silicon micropillar arrays for solar cell performance optimization

Di Zhou, Yan Pennec, Bahram Djafari-Rouhani, Odile Cristini, Tao Xu, Yannick Lambert, Didier Stiévenard

Surface nanostructuration is an important challenge for the optimization of light trapping design in solar cell. We present simulations of the optical properties and efficiency of nanostructured (micropilars-MPs- or nanocones-NCs-) silicon based solar cells as well as measurements of their optical…

Polymer based flapping-wing robotic insect : progress in design, fabrication and characterization

Alexandre Bontemps, Thomas Vanneste, Caroline Soyer, Jean-Bernard Paquet, Sébastien Grondel, Eric Cattan

In the last decade, many researchers pursued the development of tiny flying robots inspired by natural flyers destined for the exploration of confined spaces, for example. Within this context, our main objective is to devise a flying robot bioinspired from insect in terms of size and wing…

Surface acoustic wave bandgaps for conical pillars on a piezoelectric substrate

Abdelali Mrabti, Mourad Oudich, Abdellatif Akjouj, Yan Pennec, Bahram Djafari-Rouhani, Abdelkrim Talbi, Jérémy Streque, Yu Du, Ali Soltani, Philippe Pernod

We report theoretically on the band structure of a square lattice phononic crystal made up of nickel (Ni) conical pillars deposited on the surface of a semi-infinite LiNbO3 substrate. Calculations have been performed with a 3D finite element method taking into account material anisotropy and…

A Novel Dog-Bone Oscillating AFM Probe with Thermal Actuation and Piezoresistive Detection

Zhuang Xiong, Estelle Mairiaux, Benjamin Walter, Marc Faucher, Lionel Buchaillot, Bernard Legrand

In order to effectively increase the resonance frequency and the quality factor of atomic force microscope (AFM) probes, a novel oscillating probe based on a dog-bone shaped MEMS resonator was conceived, designed, fabricated and evaluated. The novel probe with 400 μm in length, 100 μm in width and…

Wave propagation in layered piezoelectric rectangular bar : an extended orthogonal polynomial approach

J.G. Yu, C. Zhang, Jean-Etienne Lefebvre

Wave propagation in multilayered piezoelectric structures has received much attention in past forty years. But the research objects of previous research works are only for semi-infinite structures and one-dimensional structures, i.e., structures with a finite dimension in only one direction, such…

[Invited Review] SU-8 as a material for lab-on-a-chip-based mass spectrometry

S. Arscott

This short review focuses on the application of SU-8 for the microchip-based approach to the miniaturization of mass spectrometry. Chip-based mass spectrometry will make the technology commonplace and bring benefits such as lower costs and autonomy. The chip-based miniaturization of mass…

Sensing light and sound velocities of fluids in 2D phoxonic crystal slab

Yan Pennec, R. Moiseyenko, Bahram Djafari-Rouhani, S. Amoudache, R. Tigrine, R. Lucklum, A. Khater

We study theoretically the potentiality of dual phononic-photonic (the so-called phoxonic) crystals for sensing applications. In this work, we study the transmission normal to a periodically perforated silicon slab when the surrounding medium is a liquid. We investigate the existence of well-…

Comparison of shallow-mesa InAs/AlSb HEMTs with and without early-protection for long-term stability against Al(Ga)Sb oxidation

E. Lefebvre, G. Moschetti, M. Malmkvist, L. Desplanque, X. Wallart, J. Grahn

The fabrication process of InAs/AlSb high electron mobility transistors (HEMTs) has been improved by depositing, after the shallow-mesa isolation of the active area, a thin SiNx-film on the exposed AlGaSb mesa floor. Devices with and without this early-protection against Al(Ga)Sb oxidation have…
