L. Tohme, S. Blin, Guillaume Ducournau, P. Nouvel, D. Coquillat, S. Hisatake, T. Nagatsuma, A. Pénarier, L. Varani, W. Knap, Jean-Francois Lampin

The detection of high data-rate wireless communication using a terahertz- frequency carrier, and a GaAs transistor as a detector, is reported. Communications are investigated around 0.2 and 0.3087 THz. For the first time, an error-free transmission at data rates up to 8.2 Gbit/s is demonstrated,…

Epitaxial Bi2Sr2Co2Oy thin films as a promising p-type transparent conducting oxides

Shufang Wang, Liqing Sun, Hongrui Zhang, El Hadj Dogheche, Jianglong Wang, Guangsheng Fu

Transparent conductive p-type Bi2Sr2Co2Oy thin films were epitaxial grown on LaAlO3 substrate by pulsed laser deposition. Film with thickness of 50 nm showed a room temperature resistivity of about 5.5 mΩ cm and an average optical transmittance of about 51% in the visible region, resulting in a…

Effects of deposition parameters on the composition of Cu(In,Ga)Se2 thin films deposited by magnetron pulsed DC sputtering

Thomas Aviles, Jean-Pierre Vilcot

Industrial Cu(In,Ga)Se2 (CIGS) thin films formation process generally require two steps : 1) Cu-In-Ga precursors deposition 2) crystallization under selenium atmosphere (H2Se). Unfortunately, hydrogen selenide is very hazardous, being the most toxic selenium compound. Nevertheless, recent works…

An SVD-aided efficient bit-loading algorithm for MIMO transmission over spatially correlated channels

Imade Fatani, Marie Zwingelstein, Mohamed Gharbi, François-Xavier Coudoux, Marion Berbineau, Marc G. Gazalet

This paper proposes an efficient bit-loading algorithm for Multiple-Input- Multiple-Output transmission over spatially correlated channels with perfect Channel State Information at both link ends. Based onwater-filling principle, the algorithm does not assume the well-known gap approximation and…

A Novel Dog-Bone Oscillating AFM Probe with Thermal Actuation and Piezoresistive Detection

Zhuang Xiong, Estelle Mairiaux, Benjamin Walter, Marc Faucher, Lionel Buchaillot, Bernard Legrand

In order to effectively increase the resonance frequency and the quality factor of atomic force microscope (AFM) probes, a novel oscillating probe based on a dog-bone shaped MEMS resonator was conceived, designed, fabricated and evaluated. The novel probe with 400 μm in length, 100 μm in width and…

Synthesis and characterization of BNT thin films

Sara Abou Dargham, Jihane Jabbour, Youssef Zaatar, Jamal Assaad, Antonio Khoury, Denis Remiens, Doumit Zaouk

Polycrystalline piezoelectric lead-free Bi0.5Na0.5TiO3 (abbreviated as BNT) thin films were deposited on glass substrates by an optimized Sol-Gel process using the Electrospray technique. X-ray Diffraction (XRD) analysis showed that after heating the films at 650˚C for 1 hour, dense and well…
