Demonstration of low-thermal conductivity silicon nano-patterned membranes as a thermoelectric material

J.F. Robillard, Tierno M'Bah, Stanislav Didenko, Tianqi Zhu, Di Zhou, Jun Yin, Emmanuel Dubois, Pierre-Olivier Chapuis, Stephane Monfray

It is expected that the blooming of the so-called Internet-of-Things (IoT) will depend on the availability of inexpensive, reliable and compact energy harvesters. Thermoelectricity features key advantages of reliability and is complementary to other sources but it’s efficiency is intrinsically…

Evolution of LSPR of gold nanowire chain embedded in dielectric multilayers

Zakariae Oumekloul, S. Lahlali, A. Mir, Abdellatif Akjouj

The objective of this paper is to improve the sensitivity and the performance of nano-sensors by using the simulation, which was done by finite element method in 2D plasmonic nanostructures. Meanwhile, the effects of geometric parameters of a hexagonal gold nanostructure, and the influence of two…

Elucidating the mechanism of the considerable mechanical stiffening of DNA induced by the couple Zn2+/Calix[4]arene-1,3-O-diphosphorous acid

Yannick Tauran, Mehmet Tarhan, Laurent Mollet, Jean Baptiste Gerves, Momoko Kumemura, Laurent Jalabert, Nicolas Lafitte, Ikjoo Byun, Beomjoon Kim, Hiroyuki Fujita, Dominique Collard, Florent Perret, Mickael Desbrosses, Didier Léonard, Christelle Goutaudier, Anthony Coleman

The couple Calix[4]arene-1,3-O-diphosphorous acid (C4diP) and zinc ions (Zn 2+) acts as a synergistic DNA binder. Silicon NanoTweezer (SNT) measurements show an increase in the mechanical stiffness of DNA bundles by a factor of >150, at Zn 2+ to C4diP ratios above 8, as compared to Zinc alone…

Electronic contribution in heat transfer at metal-semiconductor and metal silicide-semiconductor interfaces

Georges Hamaoui, Nicolas Horny, Zilong Hua, Tianqi Zhu, J.F. Robillard, Austin Fleming, Heng Ban, Mihai Chirtoc

This work presents a direct measurement of the Kapitza thermal boundary resistance Rth, between platinum-silicon and platinum silicide-silicon interfaces. Experimental measurements were made using a frequency domain photothermal radiometry set up at room temperature. The studied samples consist of…

Analysis of dynamic mechanical properties of photochemically crosslinked poly(isobornylacrylate-co-isobutylacrylate) applying WLF and Havriliak-Negami models

Nouh Zeggai, Boumediene Dali Youcef, Frédéric Dubois, Tewfik Bouchaour, Philippe Supiot, Lamia Bedjaoui, Ulrich Maschke

Chemically crosslinked poly (isobornylacrylate-co-isobutylacrylate) was elaborated by radical photo-copolymerization of isobornylacrylate and isobutylacrylate monomers in a 4:1 mass ratio, by adding a crosslinking agent at low concentration. The obtained copolymer was characterized by Fourier…

Evaporation of nanofluid sessile drops: Infrared and acoustic methods to track the dynamic deposition of copper oxide nanoparticles

Ibrahim Zaaroura, Malika Toubal, Hilal Reda, Julien Carlier, Souad Harmand, Rabah Boukherroub, Aurélie Fasquelle, Bertrand Nongaillard

In this work, we investigated the precipitation of 0.05%wt copper oxide nanoparticles in a sessile droplet during the evaporation process. We used two complementary methods to analyze the precipitation process of the nanoparticles at the solid/liquid interface: an optical one coupled to an infrared…

Performance analysis of AO‐OFDM‐CDMA with advanced 2D‐hybrid coding for amplifier‐free LR‐PONs

Hichem Mrabet, Sofien Mhatli, Iyad Dayoub, Elias Giacoumidis

All-optical orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (AO-OFDM) and optical code-division multiple-access system (OCDMA) are combined in the first analytical model, which considers subcarrier hopping by means of advanced two-dimensional (2D) hybrid-coded (2D-HC) signature. The model incorporates…

Robustness of elastic properties in polymer nanocomposite films examined over the full volume fraction range

Elena Alonso-Redondo, Laurent Belliard, K. Rolle, Bartlomiej Graczykowski, Wolfgang Tremel, Bahram Djafari-Rouhani, George Fytas

Polymers with nanoparticle inclusions are attractive materials because physical properties can be tuned by varying size and volume fraction range. However, elastic behavior can degrade at higher inclusion fractions when particle-particle contacts become important, and sophisticated measurement…
