  4. 2. Applications of Si1-xGex alloys for Ge devices and monolithic 3D integration

    Author : Konstantinos Garidis; Per-Erik Hellström; Mikael Östling; Sten Vollebregt; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Silicon; germanium; epitaxy; selective; pn junction; germanium on insulator; GOI; Ge PFET; bonding; monolithic; sequential; three dimensional; 3D; low temperature; Informations- och kommunikationsteknik; Information and Communication Technology;

    Abstract : As the semiconductor industry moves beyond the 10 nm node, power consumption constraints and reduction of the negative impact of parasitic elements become important. Silicon germanium (Si1−xGex) alloys have been used to amplify the performance of Si based devices and integrated circuits (ICs) for decades. READ MORE

    Abstract : Interdisciplinary research between medicine and microsystem engineering creates new possibilities to improve the quality of life of patients or to further enhance the performance of already existing devices. In particular, microsystems show great potential for the realization of biosensors and sampling devices to monitor bioanalytes with minimal patient discomfort. READ MORE

  6. 4. Affinity biosensors with porous and multi-array surfaces

    Author : Danny van Noort; Otto Wolfbeis; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : Affinity biosensing is one of many analytical techniques that have high potential for the detection of drug leads. In this thesis the use of ellipsometry, surface plasmon resonance (SPR) as well as quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) as screening methods in drug discovery are presented. READ MORE

  7. 5. A Biotechnology Perspective on Silicon Nanowire FETs for Biosensor Applications

    Author : Nima Jokilaakso; Amelie Eriksson Karlström; Christer Wingren; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : The study of silicon nanowire-FET-based electronic biosensor applications is an emerging scientific field. These biosensors have the benefit of being theoretically extremely sensitive and reports of down to femtomolar (fM) levels of biomolecule detection have been reported. READ MORE
