“Evidence of magnetostrictive effects on STT-MRAM performance by atomistic and spin modeling”. Sankaran K, Swerts J, Carpenter R, Couet S, Garello K, Evans RFL, Rao S, Kim W, Kundu S, Crotti D, Kar GS, Pourtois G, 2018 Ieee International Electron Devices Meeting (iedm) (2018)
Abstract: For the first time, we demonstrate, using an atomistic description of a 30nm diameter spin-transfer-torque magnetic random access memories (STT-MRAM), that the difference in mechanical properties of its sub-nanometer layers induces a high compressive strain in the magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ) and leads to a detrimental magnetostrictive effect. Our model explains the issues met in engineering the electrical and magnetic performances in scaled STT-MRAM devices. The resulting high compressive strain built in the stack, particularly in the MgO tunnel barrier (t-MgO), and its associated non-uniform atomic displacements, impacts on the quality of the MTJ interface and leads to strain relieve mechanisms such as surface roughness and adhesion issues. We illustrate that the strain gradient induced by the different materials and their thicknesses in the stacks has a negative impact on the tunnel magneto-resistance (TMR), on the magnetic nucleation process and on the STT-MRAM performance.

“First-principles perspective on poling mechanisms and ferroelectric/antiferroelectric behavior of Hf1-xZrxO2 for FEFET applications”. Clima S, McMitchell SRC, Florent K, Nyns L, Popovici M, Ronchi N, Di Piazza L, Van Houdt J, Pourtois G, 2018 Ieee International Electron Devices Meeting (iedm) (2018)
Abstract: We investigate at the atomic level the most probable phase transformations under strain, that are responsible for the ferroelectric/ antiferroelectric behavior in Hf1-xZrxO2 materials. Four different crystalline phase transformations exhibit a polar/non-polar transition: monoclinic-to-orthorhombic requires a gliding strain tensor, orthorhombic-to-orthorhombic transformation does not need strain to polarize the material, whereas tetragonal-to-cubic cell compression and tetragonal-to-orthorhombic cell elongation destabilizes the non-polar tetragonal phase, facilitating the transition towards a polar atomic configuration, therefore changing the polarization-electric field loop from antiferroelectric to ferroelectric. Oxygen vacancies can reduce drastically the polarization reversal barriers.

“Metallic ceramics for low resitivity interconnects : an ab initio insight”. Sankaran K, Moors K, Dutta S, Adelmann C, Tokei Z, Pourtois G, Proceedings of the IEEE ... International Interconnect Technology Conference
T2 –, IEEE International Interconnect Technology Conference (IITC), JUN 04-07, 2018, Santa Clara, CA , 160 (2018)
Abstract: The scalability potential of low resistivity ternary metallic alloys (MAX) as an interconnect medium has been benchmarked against copper through first-principle simulations. We report that some carbon and nitrogen MAX phases have the potential to display a reduced sensitivity of their intrinsic resistivity to scaling, while showing improved electromigration properties.

“Titanium (germano-)silicides featuring 10-9 Ω.cm2 contact resistivity and improved compatibility to advanced CMOS technology”. Yu H, Schaekers M, Chew SA, Eyeraert J-L, Dabral A, Pourtois G, Horiguchi N, Mocuta D, Collaert N, De Meyer K, 2018 18th International Workshop On Junction Technology (iwjt) , 80 (2018)
Abstract: uIn this work, we discuss three novel Ti (germano-)silicidation techniques featuring respectively the pre-contact amorphization implantation (PCAI), the TiSi co-deposition, and Ti atomic layer deposition (ALD). All three techniques form TiSix(Ge-y) contacts with ultralow contact resistivity (rho(c)) of (1-3)x10(-9) Omega.cm(2) on both highly doped n-Si and p-SiGe substrates: these techniques meet rho(c) requirement of 5-14 nm CMOS technology and feature unified CMOS contact solutions. We further discuss the compatibility of these techniques to the realistic CMOS transistor fabrication.

“Potential fields of self intersecting Gielis curves for modeling and generalized blending techniques”. Fougerolle Y, Truchetet F, Gielis J, Modeling In Mathematics 2, 67 (2017). http://doi.org/10.2991/978-94-6239-261-8_6
Abstract: The definition of Gielis curves allows for the representation of self intersecting curves. The analysis and the understanding of these representations is of major interest for the analytical representation of sectors bounded by multiple subsets of curves (or surfaces), as this occurs for instance in many natural objects. We present a construction scheme based on R-functions to build signed potential fields with guaranteed differential properties, such that their zero-set corresponds to the outer, the inner envelop, or combined subparts of the curve. Our framework is designed to allow for the definition of composed domains built upon Boolean operations between several distinct objects or some subpart of self-intersecting curves, but also provides a representation for soft blending techniques in which the traditional Boolean union and intersection become special cases of linear combinations between the objects' potential fields. Finally, by establishing a connection between R-functions and Lame curves, we can extend the domain of the p parameter within the R-p-function from the set of the even positive numbers to the real numbers strictly greater than 1, i.e. p is an element of]1, +infinity[.

“Short and long term effect of decreasing temperature on anammox activity and enrichment in mainstream granular sludge process”. De Cocker P, Bessiere Y, Hernandez-Raquet G, Dubos S, Mercade M, Sun XY, Mozo I, Barillon B, Gaval G, Caligaris M, Ruel SM, Vlaeminck SE, Sperandio M, Frontiers In Wastewater Treatment And Modelling, Ficwtm 2017 4, 50 (2017). http://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-58421-8_8
Abstract: This study investigates the impact of lower temperature on short term and long term (down to 10 degrees C) on a completely anoxic anammox granular sludge process. This is the first time granular sludge Anammox is operated in pure anoxic condition in SBR and at low temperature. Conversion performance, kinetic parameters, sludge characteristics and microbial community were analyzed.

“A note on Generalized Möbius-Listing Bodies”. Gielis J, Tavkhelidze I, , 31 (2023). http://doi.org/10.55060/s.atmps.231115.003
Abstract: Generalized Möbius-Listing surfaces and bodies generalize Möbius bands, and this research was motivated originally by solutions of boundary value problems. Analogous to cutting of the original Möbius band, for this class of surfaces and bodies, results have been obtained when cutting such bodies or surfaces. In general, cutting leads to interlinked and intertwined different surfaces or bodies, resulting in very complex systems. However, under certain conditions, the result of cutting can be a single surface or body, which reduces complexity considerably. These conditions are based on congruence and rotational symmetry of the resulting cross sections after cutting, and on the knife cutting the origin
