Abstract

A biosensor based on the release of the enzyme substrate from its structure was developed for the inhibitive detection of benzoic acid. A polyurethane support comprising two perforated microcapsules (800 μm in diameter) filled with methylene blue as a model compound and covered with a conductive deposit of multiwalled carbon nanotubes, continuously released this stored dye for 24 h. An increase in methylene blue concentration of 0.5–0.75 μmol L-1 h-1 and 1.5–2 μmol L-1 h-1, in the presence and absence of the multiwalled carbon nanotube coating, respectively, was demonstrated by UV–vis spectroscopy in a 2 mL UV cuvette. The same configuration with microcapsules filled with catechol was modified by a laponite clay coating containing tyrosinase enzyme. The resulting biosensor exhibits a constant cathodic current at −0.155 V vs AgCl/Ag, due to the reduction of the ortho-quinone produced enzymatically from the released catechol. The detection of benzoic acid was recorded from the decrease in cathodic current due to its inhibiting action on the tyrosinase activity. Reagentless biosensors based on different deposited quantity of tyrosinase (100, 200, 400 and 600 μg) were investigated for the detection of catechol and applied to the detection of benzoic acid as inhibitor. The best performance was obtained with the 400 μg-based configuration, namely a detection limit of 0.4 μmol L-1 and a sensitivity of 228 mA L mol−1. After the inhibition process, the biosensors recover 97–100% of their activity towards catechol, confirming a reversible inhibition by benzoic acid.

Abstract

International audience; Surface acoustic wave (SAW) sensors find their application in a growing number of fields. This interest stems in particular from their passive nature and the possibility of remote interrogation. Still, the sensor package, due to its size, remains an obstacle for some applications. In this regard, packageless solutions are very promising. This paper describes the potential of the AlN/ZnO/LiNbO3 structure for packageless acoustic wave sensors. This structure, based on the waveguided acoustic wave principle, is studied numerically and experimentally. According to the COMSOL simulations, a wave, whose particle displacement is similar to a Rayleigh wave, is confined within the structure when the AlN film is thick enough. This result is confirmed by comprehensive experimental tests, thus proving the potential of this structure for packageless applications, notably temperature sensing. Index Terms-Surface acoustic wave SAW, temperature sensor, waveguiding layer acoustic wave WLAW, packageless, low-profile.

Abstract

Surface acoustic wave (SAW) devices are widely used as filters or resonators for mobile communications or radars applications. However, the velocity of the wave can be very sensitive to physical parameters of the environment (temperature, strain…), which allows the device to be used as a sensor. SAW devices are passive (batteryless) and wireless, but are often bulky due to the package. To dramatically reduces their profile, it is possible to use a Wave-guiding Layer Acoustic Wave (WLAW) structure, which consists of a low velocity layer between two higher velocity layers. These structures have the potential to be ultra-thin and conformable and thus could be used for flexible on-body biomedical applications. This work investigates the AlN/ZnO/LiNbO 3 structure as a candidate for a WLAW temperature sensor.

Abstract

Molybdenum disulfide has recently emerged as a promising two-dimensional semiconducting material for nano-electronic, opto-electronic and spintronic applications. However, the demonstration of an electron spin transport through a semiconducting MoS2 channel remains challenging. Here we show the evidence of the electrical spin injection and detection in the conduction band of a multilayer MoS2 semiconducting channel using a two-terminal spin-valve configuration geometry. A magnetoresistance around 1% has been observed through a 450 nm long, 6 monolayer thick MoS2 channel with a Co/MgO tunnelling spin injector and detector. It is found that keeping a good balance between the interface resistance and channel resistance is mandatory for the observation of the two-terminal magnetoresistance. Moreover, the electron spin-relaxation is found to be greatly suppressed in the multilayer MoS2 channel with an in-plane spin polarization. The long spin diffusion length (approximately ∼235 nm) could open a new avenue for spintronic applications using multilayer transition metal dichalcogenides., MoS2 is a promising two-dimensional candidate for opto-electronic and spintronic applications. Here, the authors report electrical spin injection and detection in a few-layered MoS2 channel, demonstrating that the spin diffusion length is at least 235 nm in MoS2 conduction band.

Abstract

A remote fiberised low-coherence interferometric sensor has been used to measure the refractive index of air. The relative humidity, temperature, pressure or carbon dioxide content may be determined from the measurement of the refractive index of air if the values of the other parameters are known. The sensor works linearly, for example, over the full range of humidity and does not suffer from aging or hysteresis. This maintenance-free sensor has a relative accuracy of 1.6% with a fast response time. The relative sensitivity of the sensor to changes in the values of the other parameters influencing the refractive index of air has also been deduced. The sensor is designed primarily for industrial applications where conventional electronic sensors cannot be used in environments where materials degradation prevents the use of conventional gas and humidity sensors.

Thermo-electrical nanoantennas have been proposed as an alternative option for conversion solar energy harvesting applications. In this work, the response of a spiral broadband antenna has been obtained from numerical and theoretical simulations perspectives. The results show that this device exhibits a responsivity of 20mV/W under 117W/cm2, for a single-frequency radiation. We discuss strategies for enhanced efficiency.

Abstract

International audience; The application of Alumina-doped ZnO (AZO) films as luminescent material for large area lighting sources has been evaluated. Thin films were grown on quartz using magnetron sputtering and subsequently annealed under argon atmosphere in a rapid thermal annealing experiment. Below 550 °C, red-shift of the optical band gap and increase of the visible emission are observed in agreement with Al diffusion and formation of interstitial oxygen atoms. At temperatures higher than 800 °C, diffusion is activated and Ostwald ripening leads to the formation of larger grains and an increase of the crystalline phase. The photoluminescence (PL) intensity is enhanced, specifically in the UV range. As a result the emission spectrum of AZO thin films can be adjusted by the annealing conditions, with equal contributions from the UV and orange parts of the PL spectrum resulting in an efficient white emission as quantified using the color space map of the Commission Internationale de l'Éclairage.

Abstract

International audience; We report on soft nanoimprint lithography using masters obtained by high order symmetry interference lithography. The use of high order symmetry leads to the formation of three-dimensional structures with features smaller than 40 nm. Masters were realized in silicon in a two-step process without transfer layer. Pure silicon masters allow mechanical stability and potential surface functionalization. We further demonstrate the ability of these masters as mold for nanoimprint lithography. High fidelity replication in hybrid sol-gel and pure silica with conservation of both minute features and long distance organization is observed over large areas.
