Abstract: The invention is directed to a device (10, 10a - 10d) comprising: a set of on- chip circuits (110 - 160, 170, 180), each of the circuits configured to generate a magnetic field (300) perpendicular to a planar surface of the set when energized; a ferrofluidic layer (40) interfaced to the planar surface; and a logic circuit (50) configured to selectively energize (200, 200a) one ore more circuits of the set such as to generate a magnetic field at the energized circuits and a deformation (41, 44, 45) of the ferrofluidic layer in response thereto and to modulate optical beams (IR1, IR2) directed to the ferrofluid layer. Preferably, an additional liquid layer (60) is interfaced to the ferrofluid layer, opposite to the on-chip circuits, which is not miscible with the ferrofluid layer. The invention can be applied to micro- display/projection devices, programmable optical reflecting lenses, or to micro- molding applications for surface replication.

Abstract: A multi- junction opto-electronic device comprising a stack of wavelength selective absorption layers is proposed. The absorption layers comprise each a first layer with a grating of a specific pitch defining the wavelength of the incident light to be absorbed within a subjacent second electrically active layer itself on a third electrically inactive layer. The second electrically active layer within the different absorption layers is in electrical connection with lateral contacts to extract the electrical charge carriers generated by the absorbed incident light within the active layer. The grating within the first layer of the absorption layers is defined by periodic stripes of specific width depending on the wavelength to be absorbed by the respective absorption layers. The period of the stripes alignment is defined by the pitch of the grating. Advantageously, ordinary silicon technology can be used.

Abstract: An electronic circuit device 1 has a cooling fluid conduit network 100 having conduit(s) 101- 103 for conveying an electromagnetic signal e.g. an optical signal, for example via fibre optic cables, which is arranged in thermal communication with a first set of components 11-15 and in signal communication with a second set of components 11-12 and conveys both a cooling fluid 50 in the conduit(s) 101-103 and an electromagnetic signal 70 along and via the conduit(s) 101-103. A clock signal injection unit 10 injects an electromagnetic clock signal 70 at an input location of the cooling conduit network 100 and a clock signal collection unit 30 collects at an output location of the cooling conduit network 100 an electromagnetic clock signal conveyed along and via a conduit 101-103 of the cooling conduit network 100 for components 11, 12 of the second set.

Abstract: An electronic circuit device 1 has a combined optical transmission and cooling fluid conduit network having cooling conduit(s) 101-103 that comprises an optical transmission medium, such as fibre optic cables (60, fig 3). The network distributes a cooling fluid (50, fig 3) to cool at least a first set of component(s) 11-15 and allows optical communication between a second set of component(s) 10-12a. At least some of the components belong to both sets. The fibre optic cables (60, fig 3) may be inside or outside the conduit(s) 101-103.

Abstract: A bolometer device 1, for use in a bolometer array, for measuring a radiation-induced temperature change. The bolometer device 1 comprises: a bolometer sensor comprising: at least two antenna elements 4 coupled with one of their ends at a center position; a temperature sensing element 3 attached at the center position for detecting a temperature at the center position and for providing an electrical measure in response to the detected temperature; and one or more holding elements 5, each for mechanically supporting the bolometer sensor at an end portion of a respective one of the antenna elements 4. At least one of the holding elements 5 is electrically conductive, so that the electrical measure can be read out via the holding element 5. The antenna elements may be formed spirally or linearly extending outwardly from the center position. The bolometer sensor may be centrally arranged in a support frame 2, and each of the holding elements 5 may couple the bolometer sensor with one side of the support frame 2.
