The sub-100-nm SRRs can have magnetic resonance entering into the visible frequency spectrum. The silver SRRs as small as ~60 nm and fundamental magnetic resonance (LC-resonance) as short as ~604 nm have been successfully demonstrated. The resonance wavelengths of the LC and plasmon modes of the sub-100-nm SRRs are found to linearly decrease with the decrease of SRR size. Excellent agreement between LC-model and experimental data is obtained when the capacitance of the sub-100-nm SRRs is interpreted as capacitance between two spheres instead of between two parallel plates. We also present fourfold rotationally symmetric SRR lattice configuration in which the electric and magnetic resonant modes can be efficiently excited under unpolarized light illumination. Furthermore, the large area sub-100 nm SRR metamaterials formed by fourfold rotationally symmetric SRR lattice can be used for sensing with refractive index sensitivity as high as ~636 nm/RIU.","PeriodicalId":188668,"journal":{"name":"2014 IEEE International Nanoelectronics Conference (INEC)","volume":"98 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-07-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126964270","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here, the electrical characterization of two kinds of thermally processed FIBID-C membranes is presented. Resistivity values of nanographene and graphite-like carbon patterns are understood in relation to sp2/sp3, chemical composition, phase ordering and crystallites size.

For all samples, their crystal structures, Optical property and morphologies were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), UV-Vis absorption spectroscopy and Scanning electron microscope (SEM), respectively.

Cellular architectures are especially well positioned as candidates in this context. The most well-known among these are Cellular Automata (CA), which are computing devices with a regular structure of cells that are locally interconnected to each other. Their regularity facilitates manufacturing methods, like Interference Lithography (IL), that can produce high-density patterns of extreme regularity. When this technology is combined with bottom-up methods based on self-assembly, architectures become possible with extremely high numbers of identical cells that can be configured to conduct a wide variety of functions. This paper gives a focused introduction to cellular designs over the last 50 years and discusses their suitability for nanoelectronic implementations.","PeriodicalId":188668,"journal":{"name":"2014 IEEE International Nanoelectronics Conference (INEC)","volume":"51 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-07-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114240173","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
