Off-eutectic Au-Ge die-attach - Microstructure, mechanical strength, and electrical resistivity
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)In this paper, off-eutectic Au–Ge joints were formed between Si substrates to investigate their high-temperature compatibility. High-quality joints made with small bond pressure, 53 kPa, were fabricated. The joints comprised ... -
On the lateral instability analysis of MEMS comb-drive electrostatic transducers
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)This paper investigates the lateral pull-in effect of an in-plane overlap-varying transducer. The instability is induced by the translational and rotational displacements. Based on the principle of virtual work, the ... -
On the Microstructure of Off-Eutectic Au-Ge Joints: A High-Temperature Joint
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Joining delicate electronic components for high-temperature applications is challenging. Regular soldering with lead-free or lead-based materials is typically not suitable for high-temperature applications due to their low ... -
On Threats to the 5G Service Based Architecture
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)The 3GPP-based 5G System marks a clear departure form the previous generations. There is a new radio system and a complete overhaul of the core network design. The core network is redesigned both on the control plane parts ... -
On-chip supercapacitor electrode based on polypyrrole deposited into nanoporous Au scaffold
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)On-chip supercapacitors hold the potential promise for serving as the energy storage units in integrated circuit system, due to their much higher energy density in comparison with conventional dielectric capacitors, high ... -
One-dimensional charged kaon femtoscopy in p-Pb collisions at √sNN = 5.02 TeV
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)The correlations of identical charged kaons were measured in p-Pb collisions at √sNN=5.02 TeV by the ALICE experiment at the LHC. The femtoscopic invariant radii and correlation strengths were extracted from one-dimensional ... -
One-dimensional pion, kaon, and proton femtoscopy in Pb-Pb collisions at √sNN=2.76 TeV
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2015)The size of the particle emission region in high-energy collisions can be deduced using the femtoscopic correlations of particle pairs at low relative momentum. Such correlations arise due to quantum statistics and Coulomb ... -
Open heavy-flavour production and elliptic flow in p-Pb collisions at the LHC with ALICE
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019)Measurements of open heavy flavour production in p–A collisions allow the investigation of Cold Nuclear Matter effects. In addition, they are an important tool for a complementary investigation of the long-range correlations ... -
Optical performance of piezoelectrically actuated MEMS tunable lenses with various pupil geometries
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)Abstract. A square geometry for the diaphragm of microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) tunable lenses with circular pupils is often used. This square diaphragm introduces aberrations that would not be present for a circular ... -
Orientational mapping of minerals in Pierre shale using X-ray diffraction tensor tomography
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Shales have a complex mineralogy with structural features spanning several length scales, making them notoriously difficult to fully understand. Conventional attenuation-based X-ray computed tomography (CT) measures density ... -
An Oscillator-Based Wake-Up Receiver for Wireless Sensor Networks
(Chapter, 2021)The Internet of Things (IoT) concept is mainly enabled by wireless sensor networks (WSNs), which are continuously gaining attention, due to their multidisciplinary applications. To enhance the WSNs energy efficiency, ... -
Particle identification in ALICE: a Bayesian approach
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016)We present a Bayesian approach to particle identification (PID) within the ALICE experiment.The aim is to more effectively combine the particle identification capabilities of its various detectors. After a brief explanation ... -
Particle identification studies with a full-size 4-GEM prototype for the ALICE TPC upgrade
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Abstract A large Time Projection Chamber is the main device for tracking and charged-particle identification in the ALICE experiment at the CERN LHC. After the second long shutdown in 2019/20, the LHC will deliver Pb ... -
PDMS microlenses for focusing light in narrow band imaging diagnostics
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Minimally invasive medical devices can greatly benefit from Narrow Band Imaging (NBI) diagnostic capabilities, as different wavelengths allow penetration of distinct layers of the gastrointestinal tract mucosa, improving ... -
