Integrated Computational Materials, Process and Product Engineering – IC-MPPE 2022

Photonic quantum technologies relying on the generation and detection of light at the single-photon level play a central role in emerging quantum computing, quantum communication and quantum sensing applications. State-of-the-art experimental implementations most commonly place stringent requirements on the performance of the employed devices, components and systems, hence necessitating...

Since 2013 zero-dimensional, spherical quantum dots (QDs) are used by the display industry for high-end devices with improved color gamut compared to non-QD LED TVs. In
contrast, the next generation of optoelectronic devices will most likely be based on quantum materials with superior core/shell structures like “Dot-in-GiantShell” (GS-QD), “Dot-in-Rod” (DR) or “Dot-in-Sheet” (DS)...

This work presents a multi-stimuli responsive sensor for artificial skin applications. The sensor is responsive to surrounding changes in force, humidity and temperature. The developed design consists of a hydrogel core, responsive to temperature and humidity changes; and a piezoelectric shell for force detection. Swelling of the hydrogel core, in response to humidity and temperature,...

Chemical sensors based on metal oxides (MOx), are one of the most promising gas sensing devices due to their high sensitivity to numerous gases, fast response, miniaturization, and simple production. The detection principle of these sensors is a conductivity change of the MOx sensing material due to chemical reactions of gases with surface molecules. Cross sensitivities and interference to...
