Co-GLAD sputtering of tungsten-based nanostructured metallic thin films
2022
A structural and electrical study of tungsten-based metal thin films prepared by co-sputtering GLAD is the subject of this thesis. For this purpose, three different systems (W-W, W-Ag and W-Mo) have been developed using two opposite metallic targets (tilt angle α = 80° with the substrate). In addition to the choice of the second metallic element, different parameters involved in the growth of these films have undergone a variation (working pressure, thickness and second target current) to understand their influence on structural and electrical behaviors of these films. All three systems present a columnar and porous structure. The morphology of these films (especially the inclination of the…
Multipore membranes with nanofluidic diodes allowing multifunctional rectification and logical responses
2016
[EN] We have arranged two multipore membranes with conical nanopores in a three-compartment electrochemical cell. The membranes act as tunable nanofluidic diodes whose functionality is entirely based on the pH-reversed ion current rectification and does not require specific surface functionalizations. This electrochemical arrangement can display different electrical behaviors (quasi-linear ohmic response and inward/outward rectifications) as a function of the electrolyte concentration in the external solutions and the applied voltage at the pore tips. The multifunctional response permits to implement different logical responses including NOR and INHIBIT functions.
