Numerical Modelling of a Sinusoidal Grating-Based Surface Plasmon Coupled Emission Biosensor

Sukhotskiy V., Cady N.C., Reddy I.V.A.K., Furlani E.P., University at Buffalo (SUNY), US

We present a full-wave computational model to study the optical behavior of a versatile sinusoidal grating-based surface plasmon-coupled emission (SPCE) biosensor. Surface plasmons (SPs) are coherent oscillations of conduction electrons on a metal surface excited [...]

Giant Enhancement of the Chiro-Optic Response of Chiral Plasmonic Media using Structured Light

Reddy I.V.A.K., Sukhotskiy V., Baev A., Furlani E.P., Prasad P.N., Haus J.W., University at Buffalo (SUNY), US

We propose an approach to achieve a great enhancement and broad spectral tunability of the chiro-optic response of plasmonic metasurfaces by exploiting their interaction with light of complex polarization, endowed with both spin (SAM) and [...]

Resuable Moth-Eye nano-patterned PDMS sticker with a versatile function of coating for photovoltaics.

Jung A., Cho S., Kim H., Lee H.Y., Ghymn Y.H., SOOMBI Co., Ltd., KR

In solar photovoltaic systems, enhancing absorption of the incident light on the device surface through reducing reflection is crucial for improving the system performance. In the traditional layered method for anti-reflective coatings (ARCs), however, there [...]

Effects of Heat Treatment of ZnS Nanoparticles Prepared by Hydrothermal Synthesis on Microstructure and Optical Properties in Spark Plasma Sintering (SPS)

Hong Y.W., Yeo S.Y., Paik J.H., Cho J-H., Jeong Y.H., Yun J.S., Park W.I., Korea Institute of Ceramic Engineering & Technology, KR

Zinc sulfide (ZnS) is one of the most widely used infrared transmitting window and lens materials for systems operating in the long wave range (8~12 ㎛). ZnS nanoparticles have been intensively studied because of their [...]

Fabrication of Field-Sequential Color Display Using Predesigned Ferroelectric Liquid Crystals

Liu C-Y, Liu J-H, Zhange Y-S, Liu C-Y, Liu J-H, UC-Berkeley, US

A novel series of low transition temperature and fast response chiral Smectic C (SmC*) liquid crystals was designed and synthesized. Phase transition behaviors and electro-optical properties of the synthesized compounds were investigated and compared. Ferroelectric [...]

Fabrication of Differential Amplifiers Using Inkjet Printing and Single Wall Carbon Nanotubes

Sarvestani R.K., Wright B., Triyasakorn K., Utah Valley University, US

Fabrication of Differential Amplifiers Using Inkjet Printing and Single Wall Carbon Nanotubes Inkjet printing is a non-contact method in which small droplets of conductive material such as silver nanoparticle ink or functional material are deposited [...]

Formation and Modeling of Droplet Ejection for Electrohydrodynamic Inkjet Printing

Choi J., Lee S., Son S.U., Sungkyunkwan University, KR

EHD(Electrohydrodynamic) inkjet printing based on electrospray and EHD discharging for tiny droplet/jet is known to be able to generate higher resolution and higher aspect ratio of patterns than the conventional inkjet printing(Lee, 2014). EHD inkjet [...]

Preparation of charged droplets via electro-hydrodynamic spraying of polyelectrolyte solutions for the removal of floating particles with less than 10 um (PM10)

Lee K-I., Lee K., Lee K-I., Lee K., Kim S., Korea Electronics Technology Institute, KR

Ambient air quality tends to be worse due to the particle pollution in the region where the rapid commercialization is going on. Particulate matter (PM) describes fine inhalable particles with the specific diameter and smaller, [...]

Hot Carrier Effect and Oxide Reliability of T-FinFET Devices

He J., He X., He Y., Hu G., Li C., Liu J., He J., He X., He Y., Liu J., Ma G., He J., He X., He Y., Pan J., SoC Key Laboratory, Peking University Shenzhen Institute and PKU-HKUST Shenzhen-Hong Kong Institution, CN

Hot-carrier effect and oxide reliability of CMOS T-FinFET with 2.1nm-thick gate-SiO2 were investigated. It was found that hot-carrier immunity improves as the T-FinFET fin width (body thickness) decreases, which facilitates gate-length scaling, while it is [...]

An Effective Mobility Model for Tunneling Double-Gate MOSFET (T-FinFET)

He J., He X., Pan J., Liu J., Li C., Liu J., Hu G., Ma G., He J., He X., Chan M., SoC Key Laboratory, Peking University Shenzhen Institute and PKU-HKUST Shenzhen-Hong Kong Institution, CN

We have derived an analytical model for the effective field (Eeff) model of undoped Ultra-Thin Body (UTB) Double Gate (DG) SOI Tunneling MOSFETs ( T-FinFET) from the solution of the Poisson’s equation in this paper [...]
