Growth of c -Axis-Oriented BiCuSeO Thin Films Directly on Si Wafers

Xiaolin Wu, Linjie Gao, Pascal Roussel, El Hadj Dogheche, Jianglong Wang, Guangsheng Fu, Shufang Wang

Single-phase, c-axis-oriented BiCuSeO thin films have been directly grown on the commercial silicon (001) wafers without any surface pretreatment by using pulsed laser deposition. X-ray diffraction pole figure confirms that the film does not have any ab-plane texture, whereas cross-sectional…

65 nm SOI CMOS 60 GHz passive mixer for six-port technology

Kamel Haddadi, Christophe Loyez

This work describes the design and measurements of a 60 GHz passive mixer for six-port applications operating and implemented in a 65nm SOI CMOS technology. The mixer topology, consisting only of a n-MOS cold-FET and CPW transmission line matching networks, avoids the use of coupler in front of the…

Modeling and simulation of InAs/GaAs quantum dots for solar cell applications

A. Benahmed, Abdelkader Aissat, Abdelmalek Benkouider, Jean-Pierre Vilcot

This paper proposes a method of modeling and simulation of InAs/GaAs-based quantum dots (QDs) for solar cell. The main objective is to find the growth parameters in order to produce an optimal double heterostructure using two semiconductor materials InAs and GaAs. We are interested in particular on…

Enhanced ultraviolet luminescence of ZnO nanorods treated by high-pressure water vapor annealing (HWA)

Amer Al-Nafiey, Brigitte Sieber, B. Gelloz, Ahmed Addad, M. Moreau, Julien Barjon, Maria Girleanu, Ovidiu Ersen, Rabah Boukherroub

Zinc oxide nanorods (ZnO NRs), synthesized by a low temperature chemical method, were postannealed at 260°C in air and under high pressure water vapor (HWA) at 1.3-3.9 MPa. We found that the UV luminescence intensity increased by a factor of 2-3 after HWA annealing compared to that observed after…

Preparation and characterization of Ni-doped ZnO–SnO₂ nanocomposites: Application in photocatalysis

Monaam Ben Ali, Fatiha Barka-Bouaifel, Brigitte Sieber, Habib Elhouichet, Ahmed Addad, Luc Boussekey, Mokhtar Férid, Rabah Boukherroub

The paper reports on the synthesis of nickel-doped ZnO-SnO₂ nanocomposites with a molar ratio Zn:Sn of 2:1 using the hydrothermal method followed by calcination at 700 °C. The resulting nanocomposites were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns, transmission…

Investigations on the mechanical properties of the elementary thin films composing a CuIn1−xGaxSe2 solar cell using the nano indentation technique.

Hocine Abib, Alain Iost, Alex Montagne, Khadidja Rahmoun, Boubakeur Ayachi, Jean-Pierre Vilcot

The aim of this work is to assess the mechanical properties of the different layers composing a CIGS based solar cell. Fabrication uses the magnetron sputtering deposition technique (except for the CdS layer which was deposited using chemical bath deposition process). We performed several…

Improved performance of flexible CMOS technology using ultimate thinning and transfer bonding

Emmanuel Dubois, Justine Philippe, Matthieu Berthomé, J.F. Robillard, Christophe Gaquière, Francois Danneville, Daniel Gloria, Christine Raynaud

Based on a simple process referred to as ultimate thinning-and-transfer-bonding (UTTB), this paper shows that the high-frequency performance of advanced CMOS technologies can be combined with mechanical flexibility and transparency. The invariance upon thinning, transfer and flexure of both DC and…

Toward Energy Profiling of Connected Embedded Systems

Nadir Cherifi, Gilles Grimaud, Alexandre Boé, Thomas Vantroys

A huge number of connected objects are expected to be deployed over the coming years in various areas of everyday life. Many of these objects are energy-constrained and depend on a battery. Thus, energy is a critical resource that limits a large scale deployment, and greatly complicates the…
