We review a model for a solid electrolyte derived under thermodynamics principles. We non-dimensionalise and scale the model to identify small parameters, where we identify a scaling that controls the width of the space-charge layer in the…
Inspired by recent graded metamaterials designs, we create phononic arrays of micro-resonators for frequency signal amplification and wave filtering. Leveraging suspended waveguides on a thick silicon substrate, we hybridize surface…
We demonstrate the back-end integration of broadband, high-NA GaN micro-lenses by micro-assembly onto non-native semiconductor substrates. We developed a highly parallel micro-fabrication process flow to suspend micron scale plano-convex…
Compact and energy-efficient Synapse and Neurons are essential to realize the full potential of neuromorphic computing. In addition, a low variability is indeed needed for neurons in Deep neural networks for higher accuracy. Further,…
In order to achieve ultrafast response in MgZnO based self-powered Schottky type photodetectors, it is crucial to decrease both the junction capacitance and carrier transit time. To meet these criteria, Au/MgZnO/ITO Schottky junction…
Magnetic Field Imaging (MFI) is the newest Fault Isolation/Failure analysis technique to non-destructively and non-invasively localize defects such as electrical shorts and opens in both the die and package levels of Flip-Chips. This is…
The last decades witnessed the emergence of the field of correlated disordered media, a great challenge offering a large panel of new perspectives for applications in theoretical modelling and material fabrication. The efficient design of…

g-C3N4 is a novel semiconductor photocatalyst material; however, the low specific surface area and rapid carrier compliance hinder its photocatalytic performance. On the other hand, the synthesis of 2D g-C3N4 with high crystallinity remains…
Barium titanate, BaTiO3 (BT), materials have been synthesized by two different routes: one ball-mill-derived (BMD) nanopowder and another precursor-derived (PCD) BT synthesis method were used separately to fabricate BT thin films on…
