Nanoscale Defect Engineering and the Resulting Effects on Domain Wall Dynamics in Ferroelectric Thin Films

Nava Setter, Dragan Damjanovic, Silviu Cosmin Sandu, Ludwig Feigl

Defect engineering is one of the cornerstones of the modern electronics industry. Almost all electronic devices include materials that have been doped by ion bombardment. For materials where crystallinity is essential, such as ferroelectrics, defect type a ...

The local strength of individual alumina particles

Andreas Mortensen, Václav Pejchal, Goran Zagar, Marta Fornabaio

We implement the C-shaped sample test method and micro-cantilever beam testing to measure the local strength of microscopic, low-aspect-ratio ceramic particles, namely high purity vapor grown a-alumina Sumicorundum (R) particles 15-30 mu m in diameter, kno ...

Non-Destructive Examination Method for the ITER Toroidal Field Conductor Terminations

Pierluigi Bruzzone

An electric Non-Destructive examination method has been developed in order to inspect the ITER toroidal field (TF) terminations at room temperature and give an indication of the joint performance during manufacturing, thus reducing the risks related to hig ...

Transcriptomic regulations in oligodendroglial and microglial cells related to brain damage following fetal growth restriction

Yohan Van de Looij, Maxime Olivier Baud

Fetal growth restriction (FGR) is a major complication of human pregnancy, frequently resulting from placental vascular diseases and prenatal malnutrition, and is associated with adverse neurocognitive outcomes throughout life. However, the mechanisms link ...

Brain network characterization of high-risk preterm-born school-age children

Jean-Philippe Thiran, Alessandra Griffa, François Lazeyras, Elda Fischi Gomez

Higher risk for long-term cognitive and behavioral impairments is one of the hallmarks of extreme prematurity (EP) and pregnancy-associated fetal adverse conditions such as intrauterine growth restriction (IUGR). While neurodevelopmental delay and abnormal ...

Average-atom interatomic potential for random alloys

William Curtin, Céline Varvenne

An average-atom (A-atom) embedded-atom-method potential for random multicomponent alloys at any composition is derived analytically and validated by comparing A-atom and true random alloys bulk and defect properties, in model Fe-Ni-Cr systems. The A-atom c ...

Fermi-level pinning through defects at GaAs/oxide interfaces: A density functional study

Alfredo Pasquarello, Giacomo Francesco Leonardo Miceli, Davide Colleoni

Using density functional calculations, we study a set of candidate defects for Fermi-level pinning at GaAs/oxide interfaces. The set of considered defects comprises both bulklike and interfacial defects, including As antisites, Ga and As dangling bonds, th ...

From Defect Analysis to Gate-Level Fault Modeling of Controllable-Polarity Silicon Nanowires

Giovanni De Micheli, Pierre-Emmanuel Julien Marc Gaillardon, Hassan Ghasemzadeh Mohammadi

Controllable-Polarity Silicon Nanowire Transistors (CP-SiNWFETs) are among the promising candidates to complement or even replace the current CMOS technology in the near future. Polarity control is a desirable property that allows the on-line configuration ...

Tissue engineering for prenatal applications

Anna-Sofia Johanna Kiveliö

Fetal therapies have become available for a restricted number of life-threatening clinical conditions. Harnessing tissue engineering for prenatal applications has not been widely pursued even though isolating cells from fetal and extraembryonic tissues has ...
