Exhaled breath condensate as bioanalyte: from collection considerations to biomarker sensing

Sabine Szunerits, Hannes Dӧrfler, Quentin Pagneux, John Daniel, Shekhar Wadekar, Eloise Woitrain, Dennis Ladage, David Montaigne, Rabah Boukherroub

Since the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, the potential of exhaled breath (EB) to provide valuable information and insight into the health status of a person has been revisited. Mass spectrometry (MS) has gained increasing attention as a powerful analytical tool for clinical diagnostics of exhaled breath…

Nanomechanical damping via electron-assisted relaxation of two-level systems

Olivier Maillet, Dylan Cattiaux, Xin Zhou, Rasul R. Gazizulin, Olivier Bourgeois, Andrew D. Fefferman, Eddy Collin

We report on measurements of dissipation and frequency noise at millikelvin temperatures of nanomechanical devices covered with aluminum. A clear excess damping is observed after switching the metallic layer from superconducting to the normal state with a magnetic field. Beyond the standard model…

This paper presents an interlaboratory comparison of on-wafer S-parameter measurements of coplanar waveguide (CPW) devices in the frequency range of 110 GHz to 1.1 THz. The comparison was conducted using bespoke calibration standards and verification devices fabricated from high resistivity Silicon…

Molecular Electronics: electron, spin and thermal transport through molecules

Dominique Vuillaume

This review presents recent results on the physics of electron transport in molecular devices. The review is organized as follows. A brief description of molecular junction (MJ) technology is first given followed by an introduction to the basic physics of electron transport through MJs from DC to…

Electronic Properties of Single Prussian Blue Analog Nanocrystals Determined by Conductive-AFM

Hugo Therssen, Laure Catala, Sandra Mazérat, Talal Mallah, Dominique Vuillaume, Thierry Melin, Stéphane Lenfant

We report a study of the electron transport (ET) properties at the nanoscale (conductive-AFM noted C-AFM thereafter) of individual Prussian Blue Analog (PBA) cubic nanocrystals (NCs) of CsCo(III)Fe(II), with size between 15 and 50 nm deposited on HOPG. We demonstrate that these PBA NCs feature an…

Ultrafast Modulation of Polarization in Spintronic THz Emitters Enhanced by Field Induced Spin Reorientation Transition

Geoffrey Lezier, Pierre Koleják, Jean-Francois Lampin, Kamil Postava, Mathias Vanwolleghem, Nicolas Tiercelin

We demonstrate an efficient and simple modulation of the polarization in Spin-tronic Terahertz Emitters, by rapid switching of the magnetization using high-frequency magnetic field, enhanced by field induced Spin Reorientation Transition (SRT). The instability of the magnetic layer at the…
