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…

Affinity of Glycan-Modified Nanodiamonds towards Lectins and Uropathogenic Escherichia Coli

Volodymyr Turcheniuk, Kostiantyn Turcheniuk, Julie Bouckaert, Alexandre Barras, Tetiana Dumych, Rostyslav Bilyy, Vladimir Zaitsev, Aloysius Siriwardena, Qi Wang, Rabah Boukherroub, Sabine Szunerits

Nanodiamond particles (NDs) modified with glycan ligands are revealing themselves to have great promise as new nanomaterials for combating biofilm formation and as promising anti-adhesive scaffolds. Currently, the strategies at hand to formulate glycan-modified NDs (glyco-NDs) are limited to a few…

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…

Development of a patch antenna based on a Polyaniline/Carbon coated Cobalt composite

Z. Hamouda, J.-L. Wojkiewicz, A.A. Pud, Lamine Kone, C. Hamouda, S. Bergheul, T. Lasri

In this study, a patch antenna including a thick film made of a composite material based on Polyaniline (PANI) and Carbon coated Cobalt (CCo) is investigated. Conception, simulation, realization and characterization steps are presented. The morphology of the obtained composite was studied via…

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…

A Digital Delay Line with Coarse/Fine tuning through Gate/Body biasing in 28nm FDSOI

Ilias Sourikopoulos, Antoine Frappé, Andreia Cathelin, Laurent Clavier, Andreas Kaiser

This paper discusses the design and characterization of a programmable digital delay line. The core of the proposed architecture is a thyristor-type delay element featuring the capability for coarse/fine tuning without using any additional hardware. This is made possible by taking advantage of body…
