摘要:
The invention relates to a process for manufacturing an integrated optical device comprising the deposition on a support substrate of a multilayer being formed by first and second cladding layers in order to hold in a multilayer first region a waveguide core layer. The core is provided with an electromagnetic radiation (L) inlet/outlet port. Furthermore, the process provides for the formation of a regulation layer having a first etching speed associated therewith, which is distinguished from the etching speeds of the cladding layers. Subsequently to an etching of a multilayer second region, a cavity is obtained having a first wall which is inclined relative to the substrate at least partially extending in said first region and which is near said inlet/outlet port. Such etching removes portions of the regulation layer and the cladding layers at different speeds in order to result in the formation of the inclined wall.

A microfuel cell includes a substrate and a plurality of spaced-apart PEM dividers extending outwardly to define anodic and cathodic microfluidic channels. An anodic catalyst/electrode lines at least a portion of the anodic microfluidic channels, and a cathodic catalyst/electrode lines at least a portion of the cathodic microfluidic channels. Each anodic and cathodic catalyst/electrode may extend beneath an adjacent portion of a PEM divider in some embodiments. Alternately, the microfuel cell may include a plurality of stacked substrates, in which a first substrate has first microfluidic fuel cell reactant channels. A PEM layer may be adjacent the first surface of the first substrate, an anodic catalyst/electrode layer may be adjacent one side of the PEM layer, and a cathodic catalyst/electrode layer may be adjacent an opposite side of the PEM layer. An adhesive layer may secure the first substrate to an adjacent substrate defining at least a second microfluidic fuel cell reactant channel.

摘要:
A micromachined device made of semiconductor material is formed by: a semiconductor body; an intermediate layer set on top of the semiconductor body; and a substrate, set on top of the intermediate layer. A cavity extends in the intermediate layer and is delimited laterally by bottom fixed regions, at the top by the substrate, and at the bottom by the semiconductor body. The bottom fixed regions form fixed electrodes, which extend in the intermediate layer towards the inside of the cavity. An oscillating element is formed in the substrate above the cavity and is separated from top fixed regions through trenches, which extend throughout the thickness of the substrate. The oscillating element is formed by an oscillating platform set above the cavity, and by mobile electrodes, which extend towards the top fixed regions in a staggered way with respect to the fixed electrodes. The fixed electrodes and mobile electrodes are thus comb-fingered in plan view but formed on different levels.
