项目摘要

This new collaboration between Aeponyx, a rapidly growing Canadian company that offers disruptivetelecommunication technology, and the Université de Sherbrooke nanomaterial team, led by Professor RichardArès will explore innovative ways to exploit the properties of a new kind of nano-composite material forintegration within the company's products. Graphene-coated porous semiconductors are made of a variety ofsemiconductors, whose mesoporous structures are obtained by an electrochemical process. The pore walls arecoated with a graphene-like layer of a few atoms thick - a process that radically changes the properties of thehost semiconductor, forming a composite. The electro-optical properties of the nanocomposites remainunknown. This project aims to measure these properties and explore the use of the nanocomposites in thecontext of the telecommunication applications. The target application will be to integrate the nanocompositewithin the current Aeponyx fabrication process for their optics platform that combines MEMS with passivesilicon nitride waveguides. An eventual successful integration would mean that Aeponyx's product wouldbecome fully monolithic and be produced at radically reduced cost.The project will use the know-how developed at USherbrooke for both the nanocomposite synthesis and forsemiconductor-based nanofabrication, along with Aeponyx's strong knowledge of the device fabricationchallenges and related application.

由RichardArès教授领导的一家提供颠覆性电信技术的快速增长的加拿大公司Aeponyx与Sherbrooke纳米材料团队之间的这一新合作，将探索创新的方法，以探索一种新型的Nano-Compoctose材料在该公司内部产品中的属性。石墨烯涂层的多孔半导体是由多种半导体制成的，其介孔结构获得了电化学过程。孔壁用几个原子厚的石墨烯状层铰接 - 这种过程从根本上改变了主机半导体的特性，形成了复合材料。纳米复合材料的电流特性仍然未知。该项目旨在衡量这些属性，并探索在电信应用程序的信号中使用纳米复合材料的使用。目标应用程序将是为其光学平台的当前AEPONYX制造过程集成纳米复合材料，该过程将MEMS与氮化物波导相结合。事件的成功集成将意味着Aeponyx的产品将完全单片化，并以从根本上降低的成本生产。该项目将使用USHERBROOKE在Usherbrooke开发的专有技术来用于纳米复合材料合成和基于ForsemicDoctor的纳米型纳米型，以及Aeponyx对设备Fabricationallenges和相关应用的强大知识。
