Abstract Colloidal quantum dots (QDs) raise more and more interest as solution-processable and tunable optical gain materials. However, especially for infrared active QDs, optical gain remains inefficient. Since stimulated emission involves multifold degenerate band-edge states, population…

Analytical model for the energy harvesting of a spherical sensor from ambient vibrations

Daher Diab, Fabrice Lefebvre, Georges Nassar, Nikolay Smagin, Adnan Naja, Fawaz El Omar

In this work an analytical model for the energy harvesting of an acoustic spherical sensor has been developed in the context to make it autonomous. Our spherical sensor is composed of two half-spheres of Plexiglas and a piezoelectric ring of PZ26 that can be used as exciter or sensor. For the…

Investigating the potential of SiGe Diode in BiCMOS 55nm for power detection and datacom applications at 300 GHz

Joao Carlos Azevedo Goncalves, Issa Alaji, Daniel Gloria, Sylvie Lepilliet, Francois Danneville, Christophe Gaquière, Guillaume Ducournau

This paper describes millimeter wave (mmW) on-wafer continues wave (CW) power detection using dedicated high frequency diode junction, integrated on SiGe BiCMOS 55 nm technology from STMicroelectronics. This extraction was performed for two test structures configurations in order to evaluate the…

Highly Sensitive Surface Acoustic Wave Magnetic Field Sensor Using Multilayered TbCo2/FeCo Thin Film

Aurelien Mazzamurro, Abdelkrim Talbi, Yannick Dusch, Omar Elmazria, Philippe Pernod, Olivier Bou Matar, Nicolas Tiercelin

Over the last decades, the use of Surface Acoustic Waves (SAW) has emerged as a promising technology in many applications such as filters, signal processing but also sensors. We report the fabrication and the characterization of a SAW delay line magnetic field sensor using uniaxial multi-layered…

Non Destructive Evaluation of concrete material properties for nuclear power plant survey: results in the laboratory and on the VeRCoRS mock-up

Odile Abraham, Jean François Chaix, V Garnier, Jean-Marie Henault, Jean-Baptiste Legland, Charles Ciccarone, Hognon Sogbossi, Géraldine Villain, Bogdan Piwakowski, J Verdier, Olivier Durand, G Gugole, S Rakotonarivo, Xavier Derobert, R Drelich

Pre-stressed concrete nuclear power plant containment vessel is the third barrier in case of an accident so that quantifying concrete properties with Non Destructive Evaluation (NDE) is a continuing goal. This includes the mapping of the following concrete properties: elastic modulus, water…

Numerical emulation of thru-reflection-line calibration for the de-embedding of surface acoustic wave devices

D. Mencarelli, Bahram Djafari-Rouhani, Yan Pennec, A. Pitanti, S. Zanotto, M. Stocchi, L. Pierantoni

In this contribution, a rigorous numerical calibration is proposed to characterize the excitation of propagating mechanical waves by interdigitated transducers (IDTs). The transition from IDT terminals to phonon waveguides is modeled by means of a general circuit representation that makes use of…

Generally speaking, virtual displacement or work concerns to a timely idea according to which a motion of a certain body is not the unique possible motion. The process of reducing this motion to a particular magnitude and concept, eventually minimizing as a hypothesis, can be traced back to the…

Multimodal microscopy test standard for scanning microwave, electron, force and optical microscopy

Olaf C. Haenssler, M. F. Wieghaus, A. Kostopoulos, G. Doundoulakis, E. Aperathitis, S. Fatikow, G. Kiriakidis

We report on measurement results of a test standard suitable for different microscopic modalities. These findings were obtained by a multimodal hybrid microscope, which requires various calibration methods, also in terms of its further use as a tool in a nanorobotic environment. A Scanning Probe…
