Transmit and Receive of a cMUT Cell: Modeling and Experiments

Mao S.P., Rottenberg X., Rochus V., Helin P., Verbist A., Severi S., Nauwelaers B., Tilmans H.A.C., IMEC, BE

This paper presents the modeling, simulation and experimental verification of the transmit and receive properties of a single cell capacitive micromachined ultrasonic transducer (cMUT). It is a confirmation that the equivalent circuit model provides a [...]

Contact resistance modeling for NEMS ohmic relays using highly doped SiGe contact material

Ramezani M., Tamaddon A.H., Severi S., Vanstreels K., De Meyer K., Witvrouw A., IMEC, BE

The principal goal of this work is to develop a more accurate model for the contact resistance using the real surface profile of the contacting material in comparison to the state-of-the art where the surface [...]

Novel Nanoelectromechanical Relay Design Procedure for Logic and Memory Applications

Rottenberg X., Rochus V., Jansen R., Ramezani M., Severi S., Witvrouw A., Tilmans H.A.C., IMEC, BE

NanoElectroMechanical Structures/Systems (NEMS) have been the focus of an increasing attention from researchers in recent years for the alternative they offer to conventional CMOS for application in logics, memory and in general digital circuitry. Scaled [...]
