Silicon technology-based Micro-Systems for atomic force Microscopy/photon scanning tunnelling Microscopy.
Journal of Microscopy, 2001Co-Authors: P. Gall-borrut, B. Belier, P. Falgayrettes, Michel Castagne, Christian Bergaud, P. Temple-boyerAbstract:We developed silicon nitride cantilevers integrating a probe tip and a wave guide that is prolonged on the silicon holder with one or two guides. A Micro-System is bonded to a photodetector. The resulting hybrid System enables us to obtain simultaneously topographic and optical near-field images. Examples of images obtained on a longitudinal cross-section of an optical fibre are shown.

A System-Oriented Approach for Modeling Energy Harvesting Devices in Wireless Sensor-Modules
2010 Fourth International Conference on Sensor Technologies and Applications, 2010Co-Authors: Eduard Kravcenko, Michael Niedermayer, Stephan Guttowski, Nils F. Nissen, Stephan Benecke, Andreas Middendorf, Herbert ReichlAbstract:Self-sufficient energy supply of Micro-Systems presents a key-feature for innovative Micro-System applications, e.g., sensor-networks for condition monitoring purposes. In this paper we present the method of modeling and the characterization of an exemplary energy-harvesting device. The idea of a modulation framework in SystemC is introduced which allows precise modeling of energy supply and demand on a modular, expandable basis. The presented method can be used during early design-stages for System-optimization, regarding performance, dimensions and material use.

Environmental comparison of energy scavenging technologies for self-sufficient Micro System applications
2009 IEEE International Symposium on Sustainable Systems and Technology, 2009Co-Authors: Stephan Benecke, Herbert Reichl, Nils F. NissenAbstract:Micro Systems with autonomous energy supply exhibit a high potential for the realisation of highly miniaturised, cost- and material-efficient wireless sensing applications. The conversion of electromagnetic, thermal and kinetic energy from the ambient environment into electric energy by means of 'energy scavenging' is an approach to support or even replace primary batteries to in long-term applications. While solar cells are already well established in mass products, the current market entry of miniaturized thermoelectric and electromechanical transducers paves the way for the implementation of various energy scavenging technologies in the future. An approach to analyse the environmental impact of various technical solutions to power a Micro System is presented in this poster.

Environmental comparison of energy scavenging technologies for self-sufficient Micro System applications
2009 IEEE International Symposium on Sustainable Systems and Technology, 2009Co-Authors: Stephan Benecke, Nils F. Nissen, Herbert ReichlAbstract:The implementation of energy scavenging technologies in distributed, self-sufficient Micro Systems offers new approaches to the realization of long-time power supplies within reasonable System dimensions. In this article various technical solutions to supply a low-power Micro System with basic functions and fixed energy requirements are examined from an environmental point of view. Based on the material composition of state-of-the-art scavengers accurately described in literature,the toxic content of these devices is evaluated and compared to the long-term use of a primary lithium battery. Environmental impact of the various technical approaches is discussed on the basis of the results
