Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
The invention relates to a modulation device created on a substrate (1), comprising at least one nanodiode in the form of a T fitted into a U, the channel (31) of said nanodiode being the leg of the T that is inserted into the U. The device is characterized in that it comprises at least one electrically conductive line (37) that passes over at least part of said channel (31).
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
The invention claimed is: 1. A modulation device made on a substrate including at least one nanodiode which appears as T fitted into a U, a channel of this nanodiode being a leg of the T which penetrates into the U, characterized in that it includes at least one electrically conductive line which passes over at least one portion of this channel thereby forming a switch. 2. The device according to claim 1 , characterized in that, including a plurality of juxtaposed nanodiodes, said line steps over the totality of the channels. 3. The device according to claim 1 , characterized in that said substrate is in silicon. 4. The device according to claim 1 , characterized in that the nanodiode(s) is(are) formed in a AlGaN/GaN heterostructure. 5. The device according to claim 1 , characterized in that said line is made with a mixture of gold and of molybdenum. 6. The device according to claim 1 , characterized in that said line is made from a conductive multilayer. 7. The device according to claim 6 , characterized in that said conductive multilayer is made in titanium/platinum/gold. 8. A method for controlling the device according to claim 1 , characterized in that it comprises a step for powering said line. 9. A modulation device made on a substrate including at least one nanodiode which appears as T fitted into a U, a channel of this nanodiode being a leg of the T which penetrates into the U, characterized in that it includes at least one electrically conductive line which passes over at least one portion of this channel, and a layer of dielectric material is interposed between the channel(s) and said line.
