The plasmonic nanomaterials represents a paradigm shift in harnessing the distinguished merits of SERS platforms and therefore of remarkable potential to enhance the sensitivity of the identification. Here, we studied the fabrication, implementation, and application of nanobowtie structures embedded in a microfluidic device for sensitive SERS identification. As a proof of principle, we evaluated the competence of the device in SERS identification of the extracellular vesicles derived from NHA cells for sensitivity.

In this paper, we present comprehensive thermal cycling and thermal shock data on 3×3 mm silicon carbide (SiC) dies bonded to patterned direct-bond copper (DBC) aluminum nitride (AlN) substrates. We found a 100% survival rate for over 100 devices tested across 3 different test series substantiating the high reliability provided by TEC. Some parts even survived repeated 100 kg shear loads (>110 MPa) after thermal treatment without failing. The pressure-less, fused-copper interfaces exhibit superior electrical (as high as 70% IACS) and thermal (as high as 330 W/m·K) conductivity compared to common tin-based solders and sintered silver. Therefore, TEC offers for the first time a viable all-copper SMT material completely decoupling process-temperature from operating temperature that enables all-copper packaging systems that eliminates brittle IMC formation. High-temperature stability has already been tested to over 500°C. With these properties, it is vastly superior to sintered silver and processable without the need for pressure during fusion with just a few minutes processing time. TEC has been under development for over 10 years and recently matured to the point that it can be integrated into commercial products.","PeriodicalId":6791,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE 21st International Conference on Nanotechnology (NANO)","volume":"5 1","pages":"413-416"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-07-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76259652","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}

{"title":"Impact of Spin Fluctuation on the magnetic properties of Magnetic Tunnel Junction-Based Molecular Spintronic Device (MTJMSD)","authors":"Marzieh Savadkoohi, Bishnu R. Dahal, Eva Mutungo, Andrew Grizzle, Christophe D'Angelo, P. Tyagi","doi":"10.1109/nano51122.2021.9514317","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1109/nano51122.2021.9514317","url":null,"abstract":"Striking advancement of science over the last few decades has doubled the need of having faster and more efficient electronic devices. Magnetic tunnel junction-based molecular spintronic devices (MTJMSDs) are potential platforms for futuristic computers and may significantly reduce power consumption and enhance processing speed [1], [2]. Using transport properties of electrons, MTJMSD creates conductive molecular channels between two FM electrodes (FMEs). In our previous work, we investigated the effect of several factors on MTJMSDs' magnetic properties through Monte Carlo Simulation (MCS). Our results showed that i) Molecule-FMEs' coupling strength and nature ii) FMEs' length and thickness and iii) thermal energy have determinative effect on MTJMSD magnetic behavior [3]. For our initial comprehension, we constrained our earlier studies to just electrons' transport properties via molecular channels. In this research we took one step further towards realization of MTJMSD magnetic properties and investigated the effect of spin fluctuation (SF) as well. Here, we report the result of an extreme case where molecules made a strong antiFM coupling with one electrode and a strong FM coupling with another one at room temperature (KT=0.1 of the Curie temperature) for a fixed device size. Our preliminary results show that MTJMSD's need more iteration counts to attain equilibrium state in the presence of SFs. According to our MCS results, 16 molecules can induce antiFM coupling between FMEs in both with and without SF cases. However, the spatial orientation of M is noisier in the presence of SF despite doing 500 million simulation counts. The correlation results agree with spatial orientation of electrodes and molecules' magnetic moment. Based on our observation, there is a strong negative/antiferromagnetic correlation between FMEs when there is no SF. However, there are multiple pockets of average to high negative correlation between FMEs and molecules while applying SF effect. To complement our study and gain a better understanding of the role of SF on MTJMSD's magnetic properties, we will also investigate time evolution of energy, magnetic susceptibility and coupling energy required for transition from low to high magnetization.","PeriodicalId":6791,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE 21st International Conference on Nanotechnology (NANO)","volume":"36 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-07-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85388919","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}

Araujo","doi":"10.1109/NANO51122.2021.9514352","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1109/NANO51122.2021.9514352","url":null,"abstract":"This paper's primary motivation is developing non-invasive glucose monitoring methods and devices by detecting hydrogen peroxide in fluids like tears, sweat, or saliva since it is a subproduct molecule of various biochemical processes directly correlated with glucose concentration. The availability of those mentioned tools could facilitate the rapid development of reliable and cheap sensors without the complications of using invasive methods, especially when blood samples are repeatedly required. Therefore, this work aims to lay the foundations for developing non-invasive and highly sensitive glucose detection methods as the ultimate proposal. Consequently, contributing to track and control the high glucose levels that cause significant health and economic problems in our society. Thus, this paper presents an approach for enhancing the hydrogen peroxide sensitivity in sensors nanostructured with nanowires. In contrast to most of the standard design methodologies, this scheme does not rely on phenomenological models but experimental data and statistical modeling. Firstly, for a sensor with a given design, the data obtained with cyclic voltammetry allows finding the potential at which the sensor's response is the highest for hydrogen peroxide's concentrations ranging from 0 to 20 millimoles. Secondly, after calculating the optimal potential, a linear regression correctly relates current density with the concentration, representing the sensor's sensitivity as such a linear model's slope. Finally, using planar (non- nanostructured) sensors as a benchmark, a statistical test allows concluding that the sensitivity is significantly higher for nanostructured sensors using gold and nickel self-supported nanowires arrays than planar.","PeriodicalId":6791,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE 21st International Conference on Nanotechnology (NANO)","volume":"132 1","pages":"221-224"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-07-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76768921","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}

In these devices, 2D and GaN or SiO2 materials are in contact due to fabrication or/and device requirements. Around these interfaces, thermal properties are strongly affected by the phonon scattering mechanisms in materials. Although thermal boundary conductance has been investigated more; despite its importance, the change in individual material thermal conductivities are not investigated in detail. To observe the changes in material thermal conductivities around the interfaces, heterostructures of common 2D materials: Mos2, WSe2, and h-BN on GaN and SiO2 substrates are simulated through nonequilibrium molecular dynamics (NEMD). Obtained thermal conductivities are later compared with the thermal conductivities of the isolated materials.
