The aim of this work is the development of a modelling methodology for the fast analysis of non-radiative multilayer RF passive components without compromising solution accuracy. Instead of following a compact model approach, ...
This thesis is devoted to the study of the optical and vibrational properties of indium nitride (InN) and indium gallium nitride (InGaN) at room and high-pressure conditions. For this purpose, we have employed spectroscopic ...
The large abundance of bacterial growth niches provide a rich diversity of bacterial traits. These are usually characterized using traditional microbiology research tools, and newer characterization techniques (which focus ...
Printed electronics (PE) is a set of printing methods used to create electrical devices on various substrates. Printing typically uses common printing equipment suitable for defining patterns on material, such as screen ...
The soaring global demand for flexible, wearable and transparent devices has been driven by the advent of the Internet-of-Things (IoT), where smart electronic objects are expected to be, at anytime and everywhere, aware ...
Transferring nanotechnology into marketable products and services is still considered a major challenge. In Europe, this issue has been identified as a weakness, not only for nanotechnology, but also for the other five Key ...
This Thesis has been focused on the fabrication and characterization of different CMOS- compatible materials in order to determine both their electro-optical and resistive switching properties. Basically, two materials ...
[eng] The design of bioresponsive materials capable of stimulating the body’s innate regenerative potential is opening unprecedented possibilities to treat tissue and organ failure, which is one of the most important burdens ...
The structure and physicochemical properties of biomembranes are fundamental for the functioning of cells, and many pathologies have been associated with their alteration (cancer, neurodegenerations, obesity, etc.) 1, 2. ...
The ability to characterize the elements beneath the surface has been a dire necessity in the fields of materials science, polymer technology, biology, and medical sciences. Scanning Probe Microscopies are the family of ...
The air and environment quality is, nowadays, one of the main political concerns of the governmental institutions. Suitable gas detection is nowadays an important requirement, which is provided by gas sensors. Metal oxide ...
Although an extensive number of investigators, during the arise of this printed materials technology, were devoted to make very interesting discoveries concerning the most used sol-gel precursor to thermally produce ZnO, ...
El progreso en el área de la microfluídica y en las metodologías de cultivo celular in vitro está posibilitando el desarrollo de sofisticados dispositivos que tienen como finalidad tratar de imitar algunas de las funciones ...
Growing global emission of carbon dioxide gas (CO2) reflects the world’s energy dependence on fossil fuels. The conversion of CO2 emission into value-added products, like fuels completes a circular CO2 economy which ...
The precise delivery of therapeutic agents to their specific site of action is a big challenge in cancer treatment, which would enhance the efficacy and reduce the side effects of drugs. In this framework, nanotechnology ...
There is an increasing need for developing innovative, versatile and low-cost point-of-care (POC) systems capable of screening for at early stages of development. POC systems usually consist of a biosensor part integrated ...
This work of thesis is organized into 8 different chapters: Chapter 1: introduces the nanoscale electrical properties of cells and their relevance in the different fields of science in order to establish a framework ...
Positron emission tomography (PET) is a molecular imaging technique used for several decades in nuclear medicine that provides precise physiological information of the human body, what is crucial in oncology, cardiology, ...
