11 - Photonic Monomode Circuits: Comb Structures

Abdellatif Akjouj, El Houssaine El Boudouti, L. Dobrzynski, Bahram Djafari-Rouhani

Photon circuits are light conducting networks formed by joining several dielectric waveguide channels for the transmission of light. Their production utilizes the most advanced surface technologies and represents one of the most important challenges for the next decade. These circuits are usually…

19 - Optical Waves in Finite Layered Photonic Crystals

Abdellatif Akjouj, El Houssaine El Boudouti, L. Dobrzynski, Bahram Djafari-Rouhani

We investigated the propagation of electromagnetic waves in a finite photonic crystal bounded by a substrate and vacuum, and separated from them by a buffer layer and a cap layer. In this realistic geometry, we show the existence of different kinds of localized and resonant modes whose behaviors…

13 - Fibonacci Loop Structures: Bandgaps, Power Law, Scaling Law, Confined and Surface Modes

El Houssaine El Boudouti, Bahram Djafari-Rouhani, Abdellatif Akjouj, L. Dobrzynski

We study theoretically and experimentally the existence and behavior of scaling law, power law, as well as confined and surface modes in one-dimensional (1D) quasiperiodic photonic bandgap structures. These structures are made of segments and loops arranged according to a Fibonacci sequence. We…

Evolution of localized surface plasmon resonance made of gold nanowire chain embedded in WS2multilayers

Z. Oumekloul, Y. Achaoui, A. Mir, Abdellatif Akjouj

Recently, the transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) have emerged as a new class of building blocks for engineering enhanced plasmonic sensors. This class of materials can be made with a low production cost and can be easily hybridized with metallic nanoparticles whereby desired molecules are…

Preanalytical issues and cycle threshold values in SARS-CoV-2 real-time RT-PCR testing: should test results include these?

Ilka Engelmann, Enagnon Kazali Alidjinou, Judith Ogiez, Quentin Pagneux, Sana Miloudi, Ilyes Benhalima, Mahdi Ouafi, Famara Sané, Didier Hober, Alain Roussel, Christian Cambillau, David Devos, Rabah Boukherroub, Sabine Szunerits

Since the emergence of SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, clinical laboratories worldwide are overwhelmed with SARS-CoV-2 testing using the current gold standard: real-time reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) assays. The large numbers of suspected cases led to shortages in numerous reagents…

Cavity flow controlled with an array of magneto-mechanical micro-valves

Thomas Arnoult, Cécile Ghouila-Houri, Colin Leclercq, Aurélien Mazzamurro, Romain Viard, Eric Garnier, Denis Sipp, Alain Merlen, Abdelkrim Talbi, Philippe Pernod

This paper presents and discusses micro-magneto-mechanical valves designed for cavity flow control. Realized using microfabrication techniques and rapid prototyping, the micro-valves exhibit a small footprint and adequate performances for low-speed cavity flow control. An array of 15 micro-valves…

Optimization of Reactive-Ion Etching (RIE) parameters to maximize the lateral etch rate of silicon using SF6/N2 gas mixture: An alternative to etching Si in MEMS with Au components

Munique Kazar Mendes, Cécile Ghouila-Houri, Serria Hammami, Thomas Arnoult, Philippe Pernod, Abdelkrim Talbi

In this work, the effects of the N2 addition to the SF6 plasma used in the isotropic silicon etching of Microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) with Au components are investigated. A four-variables Doehlert design was implemented for optimizing the etching parameters (power, pressure, gas flow rate,…

L. Dobrzynski, Housni Al Wahsh, Abdellatif Akjouj, El Houssaine El Boudouti, Cécile Ghouila-Houri, Abdelkrim Talbi, Gaëtan Lévêque, Bahram Djafari-Rouhani

A closed loop can be obtained by linear superposition of the two free ends of an open loop. Its main property is the double degeneracy of its states. The analytical expressions of its eigenvalues, eigenfunctions, and response function are presented. The case of two simultaneous identical measures…

8 - General wave perspectives

L. Dobrzynski, Housni Al Wahsh, Abdellatif Akjouj, El Houssaine El Boudouti

Many other waves may be investigated with a second order differential equation, function of time and space position, similar to that of Maxwell used in this Photonics book. In many cases, these equations differ one from another only by some coefficients. Without trying to be exhaustive, a few other…
