When capacitive transduction meets the thermomechanical limit: Towards femto-newton force sensors at very high frequency

S. Houmadi, Bernard Legrand, J.P. Salvetat, B. Walter, E. Mairiaux, J.P. Aime, D. Ducatteau, P. Merzeau, L. Buisson, J. Elezgaray, Didier Theron, Marc Faucher

We show that the capacitive transduction of a MEMS device using a setup based on a microwave detection scheme achieves the measurement of the thermomechanical noise spectrum of a high-frequency (>10 MHz) high-stiffness (>10 5 N/m) resonator, reaching the outstanding displacement resolution of…

Characterization of flexible CMOS technology tranferred onto a metallic foil

Justine Philippe, Aurelien Lecavelier Des Etangs-Levallois, Philip Latzel, Francois Danneville, J.F. Robillard, Daniel Gloria, Emmanuel Dubois

In this work we demonstrate a method to transfer high-performance industrial CMOS circuits thinned down to 5.7 mu m and bond onto a 25-mu m-thick stainless steel foil with a 800-nm-thick indium layer. The bonding is performed at the temperature of 100 degrees C with an applied pressure of 1.2 bar.…

Kinetic proofreading of chromatin remodeling: from gene activation to gene repression and back

Raghvendra Singh, Guillaume Brysbaert, Marc Lensink, Fabrizio Cleri, Ralf Blossey

ATP-dependent chromatin remodeling is the active displacement of nucleosomes along or off DNA induced by chromatin remodeling complexes. This key process of gene regulation in eukaryote organisms has recently been argued to be controlled by a kinetic proofreading mechanism. In this paper we present…

Theoretical and experimental analyses of tunable Fabry-Perot resonators using piezoelectric phononic crystals

Marie-Fraise Ponge, Bertrand Dubus, Christian Granger, Jerome O. Vasseur, Mai Pham Thi, Anne-Christine Hladky

Theoretical and experimental analyses of piezoelectric stacks submitted to periodical electrical boundary conditions via electrodes are conducted. The presented structures exhibit Bragg band gaps that can be switched on or off by setting electrodes in short or open circuit. The band gap frequency…

QAM-32/0.588 THz communication using electronic Schottky transceivers

Guillaume Ducournau, Pascal Szriftgiser, Denis Bacquet, Emilien Peytavit, Mohammed Zaknoune, Rédha Kassi, Jean-Francois Lampin

We report on THz communication system using vectorial modulations schemes above 500 GHz. Using schottky-based electronic technologies at 588 GHz, potentialities of high-level multi-carrier modulation schemes for wireless links are analyzed. The wireless link is composed of an emitter with sub-…

Ambiguity function and Cramer-Rao bounds for standard and new modified Costas signals

Nadjah Touati, Charles Tatkeu, Thierry Chonavel, Yassin El Hillali, Atika Rivenq

The Cramer-Rao bound (CRB) gives a lower variance bound that an estimator can achieve. Presented is a mathematical approach to estimate it for specific radar signals, namely Costas signals and their modified versions. The modified versions design consists in widening Costas frequency hops and…

Drift velocity versus electric field in < 110 > Si nanowires: Strong confinement effects

Jing Li, Gabriel Mugny, Yann-Michel Niquet, Christophe Delerue

We have performed atomistic simulations of the phonon-limited high field carrier transport in < 110 > Si nanowires with small diameter. The carrier drift velocities are obtained from a direct solution of the non-linear Boltzmann transport equation. The relationship between the drift velocity…

A distributed antenna system for indoor accurate WiFi localization

Christophe Loyez, Michael Bocquet, C. Lethien, N. Rolland

Specific infrastructures are a key challenge for indoor geo-localization systems. In particular, an accurate narrowband localization technique using 802.11 g WiFi signals is proposed in this letter. The related system architecture is built on the basis of radio over fiber topology of distributed…

Sound generation by non-synchronously oscillating rotor blades in turbomachinery

Di Zhou, Xiaoyu Wang, Jun Chen, Xiaodong Jing, Xiaofeng Sun

In this paper, the sound generation by non synchronously oscillating rotor blades in axial compressor is investigated with emphasis on establishing an analytical model for the corresponding sound field inside an annular duct. In terms of the present model, it is found that the acoustic frequency…
