High performance Fully-vertical GaN-on-Si power MOSFETs

Elison de Nazareth Matioli, Reza Soleiman Zadeh Ardebili, Chao Liu

We report the first demonstration of fully-vertical power MOSFETs on 6.6-μm-thick GaN grown on a 6-inch Si substrate by metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD). A robust fabrication method was developed based on a selective and local removal of the ...

Discontinuous Galerkin scheme for the spherical shallow water equations with applications to tsunami modeling and prediction

Jan Sickmann Hesthaven, Boris Bonev

We present a novel high-order discontinuous Galerkin discretization for the spherical shallow water equations, able to handle wetting/drying and non-conforming, curved meshes in a well-balanced manner. This requires a well-balanced discretization, that can ...

Optimisation of industrial production of low-force sensors – adhesive bonding of force-centring ball

Thomas Maeder, Peter Ryser, Caroline Marguerite Jacq

This work addresses the issue of attaching the force-centring part (a round ball) to the load cell of a force sensor, a piezoresistive thick-film Wheatstone bridge deposited onto a ceramic cantilever. As the current soldering process requires expensive met ...

Parylene C Coated Microelectrodes For Scanning Electrochemical Microscopy

Hubert Girault, Pekka Eero Peljo, Fernando Cortes Salazar, Haiqiang Deng

Herein, we present a simple microelectrode preparation methodology consisting in coating a platinum wire or a carbon fiber with a thin insulating Parylene C film (e.g. 1–10 μm), to produce SECM probes with a small and constant probe RG (i.e. ratio between ...

Formation Mechanisms and Structural Properties of Aluminium-Chromium Based Oxynitride Thin Films Synthesized by Physical Vapor Deposition

Hossein Najafi

Oxynitride thin films, a novel class of mixed anionic solid structures, have gained an intense interest during recent years related to the unique interplay of oxygen (O) and nitrogen (N) with metals in the material structure. This matter can result in spec ...

Numerical analysis of zeptogram/Hz-level mass responsivity for in-plane resonant nano-electro-mechanical sensors

Mihai Adrian Ionescu

This paper presents numerical analysis of an in-plane resonant nano-electro-mechanical (NEM) sensor based on mass-detection principle using a 3D FEM electromechanical simulation combined with a NEM/MOS hybrid circuit simulation. The self-assembled linker m ...

Estimation of interfacial fracture toughness based on progressive edge delamination of a thin transparent coating on a polymer substrate

Yves Leterrier

Evaluation of interfacial toughness of sub-micron-thickness layers deposited on a ductile substrate is a challenging task which has motivated different experimental approaches Fragmentation testing was used in the present study as a means of interface char ...

Models for Saturation Damage State and Interfacial Shear Strengths in Multilayer Coatings

Jan-Anders Edvin Maansson, Yves Leterrier, Judith Helen Waller

The present work investigates the saturation damage state of a two-layer coating on a substrate (layer 1/layer 2/substrate) under uniaxial tensile loading in order to derive expressions for the interfacial strength between layer 1 and layer 2, and between ...

Texture Formation in Hot-Dip Galvanized Coatings : Nucleation and Growth of Anisotropic Grains in a Confined Geometry

Continuous hot-dip galvanization is a process during which steel sheets are coated with a layer of Zn-Al alloy to protect them against corrosion. As the name indicates, this is achieved by dipping the preheated sheet into a bath of molten alloy. The sheet ...

Protein Microarrays Based on Polymer Brushes Prepared via Surface-Initiated Atom Transfer Radical Polymerization

Harm-Anton Klok, Raphaël Barbey

Polymer brushes represent an interesting platform for the development of high-capacity protein binding surfaces. Whereas the protein binding properties of polymer brushes have been investigated before, this manuscript evaluates the feasibility of poly(glyc ...

Cathode-supported micro-tubular SOFCs based on Nd1.95NiO4 + δ: Fabrication and characterisation of dip-coated electrolyte layers

Heinrich Hofmann, Jan Van Herle, Paul Bowen, Josef Andreas Schuler, Ulrich Aschauer, Henning Lübbe

Fabrication conditions to obtain dense electrolyte double layers on a porous micro-tubular cathode substrate were investigated. Porous tubes of a nickelate material, Nd1.95NiO4 + δ, were fabricated by cold-isostatic pressing (CIP) and sintering. Thin ﬁlms ...

Method of manufacturing a module of photoelectrochemical cells with long-term stability

Described is a method of manufacturing a module with long-term stability even though it contains a non-heat-resistant material, in particular a photosensitizer. Two glass plates (1, 2) are connected to each other round their edges with an edge-sealing stru ...

Effect of filler behavior on nanocomposite SU8 photoresist for moving micro- parts

Philippe Renaud, Arnaud Bertsch, Stefano Mischler, Sébastien Jiguet

The use of low-stress SU8 nanocomposites as a functional material for micro- parts and coating applications is described in this paper. It was found that the nanoparticles lower the internal stress and decrease the wear rate and frictional coefficient of t ...
