The brain is the most intricate organ in the human body, yet the underlying mechanisms of its cells and networks are not fully mapped. In addition to this lack of understanding, there are numerous neurological disorders and diseases for which a cure remains elusive. There has been persistent research to understand how neuronal cells function...

The mm-wave operational band (24-30 GHz) is becoming increasingly important for various practical applications. However, at such high frequencies, the issue of propagation losses arises, emphasizing the necessity for these systems to achieve high radiation efficiency. Dielectric Resonator Antennas (DRA) are promising candidates to replace...

Several promising photovoltaic (PV) concepts are supported by transistors. Along with the growth of PV capacity in the urban environment, issues related to partial shading highlight the interest in more shade-tolerant PV systems. An example of technologies improving a PV module’s energy yield under partial shading is the submodule power...

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most commonly occurring arrhythmia in clinical practice and can have a significant impact on the current and future wellbeing of the patient. By placing an unipolar sensor array directly on the epicardium during an open-heart surgery to measure the electrical activity of the atrium, more insight about this disease...

Cardiorenal Syndrome (CRS) is a multi-organ disease characterized by a reciprocal pathological interaction between the heart and kidneys during acute or chronic injury. Yet, a complete understanding of the underlying bi-directional pathophysiological mechanisms is lacking, hence obscuring effective diagnostic strategies, patient stratification...

Since 2018, a race on 6G technology between many countries and institutions has started.<br/>As 6G mobile communication utilizes sub-THz frequency band, the antenna packaging requires higher level integration. Antenna in Package (AiP) is seen as a promising solution when it comes to the integration problem. At 100GHz operation frequency band,...

With the high-speed development of the Internet of Things (IoT), powering such a massive number of wireless IoT sensors with chemical batteries become more and more unpractical. To make the IoT sensors self-sustained, Piezoelectric Energy Harvesting (PEH) technology provides an excellent solution to power the devices with a relatively long...

Silicon solar cells account for about 95% of the total photovoltaic market share. Poly-Si passivating contacts are promising techniques enabling high performance c-Si solar cells with conversion efficiency over 26.0%. The highly absorptive nature of poly-Si materials makes the transparent passivating contacts attractive, such as poly-Si(O<sub>x<...

This thesis aims to solve the problems and fabricate fully inkjet-printed dielectric elastomer actuators with silver electrodes and a PDMS middle layer. First, a conductive silver electrode is printed on a coated PET substrate, followed by a printing of the dielectric elastomer middle layer to cover the bottom electrode. Then, the top silver...

Capillary self-alignment shows the potential to keep small components aligned using soft liquid contact when disturbed by external forces. Whilst this concept has been promising, mostly static situations have been investigated, making it unclear how a receptor-droplet-chip (RDC) configuration behaves dynamically and where its stability limits...

In this thesis, the realization and qualification of an anechoic dome chamber for 5G antenna’s is discussed. As with audio, where no echoes or noise from outside is wanted when listening to music, when characterizing an antenna it must be prevented to get internal reflections or electromagnetic (EM) radiation from outside. For this reason, a...

Interdigitated back-contacted solar cell (IBC) is a successful high-efficiency solar cell concept. Without a metal grid at the front side, the metal shading loss is eliminated. However, the fabrication process of an IBC cell is much more complicated than that of a FBC cell. Within the PVMD group, two poly-Si carrier-selective passivating...

Carrier selective passivating contacts (CSPC) have proven to effectively curtail the recombination losses emerging at directly metallised contacts of crystalline Silicon (c-Si) solar cells. CSPCs enabled using an ultra-thin interfacial tunnel oxide layer (SiOx) capped by a doped polycrystalline Silicon (poly-Si) layer also referred to as Tunnel...

Myocardial ischaemia induced by cardioplegia is the most prominent risk during open-heart surgery. To achieve adequate protection of the cardiomyocytes during surgery, the cardioplegia must arrive at all cardiomyocytes. Local obstruction can lead to regional ischaemia. For surgeons and perfusionist, the arrested heart is a black box. They know...

Cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) is a highly aggressive biliary tumor with a poor prognosis and limited treatment options. Various critical aspects of CCA development remain unclear. Lately, the dynamic process of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) was highlighted to play a crucial role in the fundamental mechanism of metastatic dissemination....

Over the past few years, post-surgery monitoring has become an important aspect of the patient’s healthcare in the modern clinical medicine. This kind of monitoring is done to examine various physical and chemical parameters, while considering any post-surgery complications. Therefore, the patient’s care is continued even after the surgical...

Imagine being lost in a desert with a bunch of friends, all of a sudden. Survival will be difficult. You will have mirages, distrust among friends and no means to leave landmarks on the sand. Unable to locate yourself, you will have no means to contact people with maps. The best you can do in such a situation is to stay together in the vicinity...
