Growth and characterisation of platinum and palladium catalysed silicon based nanostructures for nano-device fabrication
… for the analysis of synthesised metal silicide nano-droplets which are used to synthesis silicon nanowires. This analysis was performed for both Molecular Beam Epitaxy (MBE) and Electron Beam Evaporator (EBE) deposited metal coated silicon substrates. The formation of platinum silicide phases as …

Evaporation from nanopores : probing interfacial transport
… we designed and microfabricated an ultrathin nanoporous membrane as an experimental platform to overcome some critical challenges including: (1) realizing accurate and yet non-invasive interface temperature measurement; (2) decoupling the interfacial transport resistance from the thermofluidic …

Collocation Based Meshless Methods for Microelectromechanical Systems
… were applied to solve the fluid flow in the MEMS devices. Combining the fluid flow module with the solver for the Poisson and Nernst-Planck (PNP) equations, a tool for the simulation of ion transport in the framework of the meshless methods has been developed. Furthermore, this tool has been used …

Etching of Silicon, Silicon Nitride, and Atomic Layer Etching of Silicon Dioxide using Inductively Coupled Plasma Beams
… are largely lacking. Furthermore, fabrication of devices with feature sizes below 10 nm requires manufacturing with atomic level precision, making Atomic Layer Etching (ALE) indispensable for nano-device fabrication. Silicon nitride (SiN) film (300 nm-thick) on Si substrate (wafer), Si film (10 …

Edge Device Speaker Verification
… systems have been built for smaller, cheaper devices which can be placed in people's homes or other edge locations. Here, we aim to demonstrate that a reasonably accurate, generalizable, text-independent speaker verification system can be built, trained, and, ultimately, deployed onto a …

Highly-selective Chemiresistive Sensing and Analysis of Vapors Using Functionalized Nanotubes
… the development of a diversified array of nanostructured gas-sensors comprised of selectively, novel surface-functionalized carbon nanotubes (for analyte selectivity by virtue of functionality). Harnessing carbon nanotubes with various electron withdrawing and donating groups help in …
