2. Microengineering of diamond
Abstract : Performance of micromechanical systems often relies on extreme material properties. Being the strongest, stiffest and hardest of all materials, exhibiting extreme electromagnetic transparency and wear resistance, and offering the highest possible thermal conductivity and very low friction against most materials, diamond is indeed a unique material.

3. Microengineered CVD Diamond Surfaces : Tribology and Applications
Abstract : Recent developments in thin film synthesis of diamond have facilitated a host of new technical applications. These are motivated by the many attractive properties of diamond, for example high hardness, chemical inertness, transparency and heat conductivity. Unfortunately, these properties also make it difficult to fashion complex geometries. READ MORE

5. Heterogeneous Technologies for Microfluidic Systems
Abstract : In this thesis, conventional and unconventional technologies have been studied and combined in order to make heterogeneous microfluidics with potential advantages, especially in biological applications. Many conventional materials, like silicon, glass, thermoplastic polymers, polyimide and polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) have been combined in building heterogeneous microfluidic devices or demonstrators.
