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…

On the origin of increased sensitivity and mass resolution using silicon masks in MALDI

Laurent Diologent, Julien Franck, Maxence Wisztorski, A. Treizebre, Cristian Focsa, Isabelle Fournier, Michael Ziskind

Since its development, MALDI has proved its performance in the analysis of intact biomolecules up to high molecular weights, regardless of their polarity. Sensitivity of MALDI instruments is a key point for breaking the limits of observing biomolecules of lower abundances. Instrumentation is one…

Bandwidth enhancement in disordered metamaterial absorbers

Jianping Hao, Eric Lheurette, Ludovic Burgnies, Etienne Okada, Didier Lippens

In this letter, we show numerically and experimentally that a positional disorder of a collection of absorbing electromagnetic wave resonators operating in the long wavelength regime dramatically enhances the absorption bandwidth. The demonstration is performed by using single-size ring-shaped thin…

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…

Characterisation of early HepG2/3a cell response to a microfluidic culture in liver biochips using multi-parametric real time image processing

Marie Naudot, Patrick Paullier, Thomas Dargent, Vincent Senez, Zaher Kharboutly, Isabelle Claude, Eric Leclerc

We developed an image processing protocol to perform time lapse fluorescent analysis in microfluidic biochips. Using three probes to follow three parameters: the number of cell nucleus, the mitochondrial activity and the cell death, we have investigated the behaviour of HepG2/C3a under microfluidic…

Modeling light-sound interaction in nanoscale cavities and waveguides

Yan Pennec, Vincent Laude, Nikos Papanikolaou, Bahram Djafari-Rouhani, Mourad Oudich, Said El-Jallal, Jean-Charles Beugnot, José Maria Escalante, Alejandro Martinez

The interaction of light and sound waves at the micro and nanoscale has attracted considerable interest in recent years. The main reason is that this interaction is responsible for a wide variety of intriguing physical phenomena, ranging from the laser-induced cooling of a micromechanical resonator…

Elastic properties of tensile nitrogen-plasma-treated multilayer silicon nitride films

M. Braccini, F. Volpi, Arnaud Devos, G. Raymond, D. Benoit, Pascal Morin

Highly stressed silicon nitride thin films are used in gate first complementary metal oxide semiconductors to improve mobility in the silicon channel. Compressive stresses improve hole mobility in p-type MOS transistors while tensile stresses increase electron mobility in n-type MOS devices. High…

Digital radio frequency signal generation towards ultimate transmitters

Antoine Frappé

This invited paper exposes our latest developments in the field of digital transmitters by focusing on digital and mixed-signal processing blocks, such as delta-sigma modulators, high-speed interpolation filters and digital-to-RF converters. The goal is to demonstrate that radio-frequency signal…

Coherent THz communication at 200 GHz using a frequency comb, UTC-PD and electronic detection

Guillaume Ducournau, Y. Yoshimizu, S. Hisatake, F. Pavanello, Emilien Peytavit, Mohammed Zaknoune, T. Nagatsuma, Jean-Francois Lampin

A coherent terahertz (THz) link at 200 GHz, with a variable data rate up to 11 Gbit/s, featuring a very high sensitivity at the receiver, is investigated. The system uses a quasi-optic unitravelling carrier photodiode (UTC-PD) emitter and an electronic receiver. The coherent link relies on an…
