Unconventional thin-film thermoelectric converters : structure, simulation, and comparative study

Maciej Haras, Valeria Lacatena, Stéphane Monfray, J.F. Robillard, Thomas Skotnicki, Emmanuel Dubois

Bi2Te3 or Sb2Te3 are the materials most widely used in thermoelectric generators (TEG) operating near room temperature. These materials are, however, environmentally harmful, expensive, and incompatible with complementary metal-oxide semiconductor technology, in contrast to silicon (Si), germanium…

A one-dimensional optomechanical crystal with a complete phononic band gap

J. Gomis-Bresco, D. Navarro-Urrios, M. Oudich, Said El-Jallal, A. Griol, D. Puerto, E. Chavez, Yan Pennec, Bahram Djafari-Rouhani, F. Alzina, A. Martínez, C.M. Sotomayor Torres

Recent years have witnessed the boom of cavity optomechanics, which exploits the confinement and coupling of optical and mechanical waves at the nanoscale. Among their physical implementations, optomechanical (OM) crystals built on semiconductor slabs enable the integration and manipulation of…

Miniaturized Microcantilever-based RF Microwave Probes Using MEMS Technologies

Jaouad Marzouk, S. Arscott, Kamel Haddadi, Tuami Lasri, Christophe Boyaval, Sylvie Lepilliet, Gilles Dambrine

In this study, miniaturized microwave cantilever-based probes - using silicon-on-insulator (SOI) technology - are proposed for the on-chip electrical characterization of nanodevices. In contrast with conventional on-wafer probing structures, small pad dimensions around 1 μm2 associated with a 4.5…

CW Radar for Monitoring Water-to-Cellular Concrete

Kamel Haddadi, Tuami Lasri

The physical deterioration of concrete structures is mainly caused by their moisture content. Consequently, methods dedicated to contactless, non-destructive and real-time monitoring of moisture content levels are required to control the deterioration of buildings. In this study, we propose an…

100nm AlSb/InAs HEMT for ultra-low-power consumption, low-noise applications

Cyrille Gardès, Sonia Bagumako, L. Desplanque, Nicolas Wichmann, S. Bollaert, Francois Danneville, Xavier Wallart, Yannick Roelens

We report on high frequency (HF) and noise performances of AlSb/InAs high electron mobility transistor (HEMT) with 100 nm gate length at room temperature in low-power regime. Extrinsic cut-off frequencies of 100/125 GHz together with minimum noise figure dB and associated gain dB at 12 GHz have…

Microwave optical switches metal-semiconductor-metal Schottky based on GaAs

Sabah Benzeghda, Farida Hobar, Didier Decoster, Jean-Francois Lampin, A. Benzeghda

Interdigitated metal-semiconductor-metal (MSM) photodetectors have received considerable attention for applications in microwave optical phoswitches. The impulse response of interdigitated metal-semiconductor- metal photoswich fabricated on GaAs non-intentional doped (NID) absorbing layer is…

Thermoelectric infrared microsensors based on a periodically suspended thermopile integrating nanostructured Ge/SiGe quantum dots superlattice

Katir Ziouche, G. Savelli, Zahia Bougrioua, D. Hauser, P. Lejeune, P.M. Michon, Tuami Lasri, Didier Leclercq

This paper presents an original integration of polycrystalline SiGe-based quantum dots superlattices (QDSL) into Thermoelectric (TE) planar infrared microsensors (μSIR) fabricated using a CMOS technology. The nanostructuration in QDSL results into a considerably reduced thermal conductivity by a…

Electronic and physico-chemical properties of nanometric boron delta-doped diamond structures

Gauthier Chicot, Alexandre Fiori, P.N. Volpe, Thu Nhi Tran Thi, Jean-Claude Gerbedoen, Jessica Bousquet, M.P. Alegre, J.C. Pinero, D. Araujo, F. Jomard, Ali Soltani, Jean-Claude de Jaeger, J. Morse, J. Härtwig, Nicolas Tranchant, C. Mer-Calfati, Jean-Charles Arnault, Julien Delahaye, Thierry Grenet, David Eon, Franck Omnès, Julien Pernot, Etienne Bustarret

Heavily boron doped diamond epilayers with thicknesses ranging from 40 to less than 2 nm and buried between nominally undoped thicker layers have been grown in two different reactors. Two types of [100]-oriented single crystal diamond substrates were used after being characterized by X-ray white…

Image and many-body effects in ultra-thin gate insulator MOSFET with In0.53Ga0.47As channel material and their influence on gate leakage current

Gabriel Mugny, D. Rideau, F. Triozon, Yann-Michel Niquet, F.G. Pereira, A. Soussou, I. Duchemin, D. Garetto, C. Tavernier, H. Jaouen, Christophe Delerue

We study the influence of many-body and image force corrections on charge distribution, threshold voltage and tunnel current in fully-depleted silicon-on-insulator (FDSOI) ultra-thin gate insulator MOSFETs. We show that image correction slightly increases threshold voltage in Si MOSFETs and that…
