MEMS Based AC Voltage References Toward Metrological Applications

Camon H., Bounouh A., Blard F., Bélières D., LAAS/CNRS, FR

In electrical references, if primary references define the international standards, secondary references are the key points for precision measurement or electrical conversion. The principle of secondary AC voltage references based on MEMS using the pull-in [...]

New developments in inkjet of deposits carried out under localised extraction or helium

Conedera V., Mesnilgrente F., Fadel P., Fabre N., LAAS/CNRS, FR

In inkjet, inks used are based on aqueous or organic solvents. Solvents with low boiling point present the drawback of drying quickly and then we can observe the clogging of the orifices of ink jet [...]

Simulation of ac-electroosmotic flows for concentration of particles on biosensors

Tanguy L., Casalis G., Nicu L., LAAS/CNRS, FR

Artificial concentration of particles in a fluid is a major challenge for micro- and nanobiosensors to enhance sensitivity and to reduce the time of response. We present here a numerical simulation of electroosmotic flows for [...]

MEMS-based solid propellant micro-rocket with micro-igniter on thin membrane for next generation of low-cost small space and aeronautic engines

Chaalane A., Rossi C., Estève D., LAAS/CNRS, FR

In this work, a new planar structure of solid propellant micro-rocket, for microspacecraft and Micro-Air-Vehicle applications is reported. These applications require extremely low levels of thrust and impulse in a very sort time. We have [...]
