An electric field applied to a droplet impinging on a hydrophobic surface has an extensive variety of applications, including ant-icing, heat transfer enhancement, self-cleaning, droplet manipulation, and electrostatic spraying. The present…
This work presents a scalable method to produce robust all-solid electric double layer capacitors (EDLCs), compatible with roll-to-roll processes and structural laminate composite fabrication. It consists in sandwiching and pressing an…
A selective electrodeposition method for the fabrication of extremely thin and long metallic and magnetic wires and other nanostructures is introduced. Growth is done on the cleaved edge of a semiconductor multilayer structure incorporating…
Silicon detectors typically require an insensitive area around their periphery to accommodate guard rings, which help maintain the electric field uniformity around edge pixels and isolate the high leakage current from the physical edges of…
Spin-polarized electron beam sources enable studies of spin-dependent electric and magnetic effects at the nanoscale. We propose a method of creating spin-polarized electrons on an integrated photonics chip by laser driven nanophotonic…
With the demand for improved performance in microfabricated devices, the necessity to apply greater electric fields and voltages becomes evident. When operating in vacuum, the voltage is typically limited by surface flashover forming along…
Based on a coordinate transformation approach, Pendry {\it et al.} have reported electromagnetically anisotropic and inhomogeneous shells that, in theory, completely shield an interior structure of arbitrary size from electromagnetic fields…
We introduce a droplet-jumping phenomenon on a superhydrophobic surface driven by the resonant AC electrowetting. The resonant electrical actuation enables a droplet to accumulate sufficient surface energy for jumping, and superhydrophobic…
We report on graphene-passivated ferromagnetic electrodes (GPFE) for spin devices. GPFE are shown to act as spin-polarized oxidation-resistant electrodes. The direct coating of nickel with few layer graphene through a readily scalable…
This article is withdrawn since it is published in a journal We report on the first reduction methodology, compatible with flexible, temperature sensitive substrates, for the production of reduced spin coated graphene oxide (GO) electrodes.…
Reversible control of the photoluminescence of ZnO occurring in the visible range, has been achieved by application of a few volts (< 5V) to a device consisting of nanostructured ZnO film sandwiched between Indium Tin Oxide electrode and…
We have succeeded in growing ferromagnetic metals (Co, Fe, and NiFe)/ Al2O3/ AlGaAs heterostructures with homogeneous and flat interfaces. The electro-luminescence (EL) from the light emitting diode (LED) consisting of the…
Harvesting low-grade heat to electricity is attractive for powering wearable electronic devices. Here, we demonstrate nW-scale thermoelectric power generation in devices from thin film assemblies of microwave-synthesized p-Sb2Te3 nanoplates…
On-chip ultraviolet sources are of great interest for building compact and scalable atomic clocks, quantum computers, and spectrometers; however, few material platforms are suitable for integrated ultraviolet light generation. Of these…
Niobium thin film wires were fabricated using electron beam lithography with a four layer liftoff mask system, and subsequently thinned by anodisation. The resistance along the wire was monitored in situ and trimmed by controlling the…
Dewetting of thin metal films is one of the most widespread method for functional plasmonic nanostructures fabrication. However, simple thermal-induced dewetting does not allow to control degree of nanostructures order without additional…
We look at the wetting of a pure fluid in contact with a charged flat surface. In the bulk, the fluid is a classical van der Waals fluid containing dissociated ions. The presence of wall and ions leads to strong dielectrophoretic and…
The Poly(vinylidene fluoride)/CaCu3Ti4O12 (CCTO) nanocrystal composite films (85nm) with relatively high dielectric permittivity (90 at 100Hz) were prepared by the solution casting followed by spin coating technique. The structural, the…
Thin films being a universal functional material have attracted much interest in academic and industrial applications, such as flexible electronics, soft robotics, and micro-nano devices. With thin films becoming micro/nanoscale, developing…
The primary impediment to continued improvement of charge-based electronics is the excessive energy dissipation incurred in switching a bit of information. With suitable choice of materials, devices made of multiferroic composites, i.e.,…
