SUMMARY:Bioengineering/Biology Seminar: "New tools for multi-modal precision measurement of single cells" (Aaron Streets)
DESCRIPTION:This hybrid seminar is co-hosted by the Departments of Bioengineering and Biology. Check email for the zoom link or contact ksas@seas.upenn.edu. \nThe study of biology at the single-cell level has relied on the development of precision measurement tools. Our research is focused on developing new technology for multimodal\, precision measurement of single cells to move beyond cataloging cell types and push towards gaining a mechanistic understanding of the relationship between the molecules that define and maintain cell state. We build both hardware and software tools for measuring epigenetic regulation\, gene expression\, protein composition\, and morphological phenotype at the single-cell level. This talk will focus on recent work applying single-cell genomic analysis to study T cell development and adipocyte development in model systems. Additionally\, I will present a new method for measuring protein-DNA interactions and DNA methylation with long-read sequencing.

SUMMARY:ESE Ph.D. Thesis Defense: "Integrated Diamond-based Devices for Quantum Sensing and Communication"
DESCRIPTION:The nitrogen-vacancy (NV) center in diamond has been integral to the advancement of quantum technologies. It has enabled key demonstrations in quantum networks and distributed quantum computing\, as well as impressive proof-of-concept devices in nanoscale\, sub-cellular imaging and sensing. The NV center – a point defect in diamond with an optically addressable electron spin – boasts several advantages such as long coherence times and quantum control in ambient conditions. At the same time\, the NV center still faces significant engineering challenges in the realization of scalable quantum devices. The high-refractive index of diamond in the visible spectrum results in inefficient photon collection\, and the NV center’s sensitivity to charge and spin fluctuations at surfaces and interfaces necessitates deeply embedded NV centers for coherence-limited applications\, which further worsens readout efficiency. The challenging optical interface has necessitated the use of high numerical-aperture objectives and free space optics\, which are non-ideal components for scalable devices. On the other hand\, benchtop frequency synthesizers and sequence generators typically used in laboratory experiments inhibit the packaging of NV centers for deployment outside of laboratory environments. This thesis focuses on the realization of integrated quantum devices using the NV center and targets miniaturization of the host crystal\, the optical interface\, and quantum control sequence generators. First\, it discusses efforts and progress in realizing chemically active quantum sensors based on NV centers embedded in nanodiamonds. Following\, it presents the miniaturization of collection optics through the coupling of an immersion metalens fabricated on bulk diamond to a single NV center in the crystal. Finally\, it lays out performance considerations for integrated sequence generators to preserve the NV center’s coherence properties\, and demonstrates quantum control at room temperature of a NV center using a CMOS control signal generator. To conclude\, this thesis discusses future potential for further integrating and miniaturizing diamond-based quantum devices.

SUMMARY:MEAM Seminar: "Aluminum Scandium Nitride Films for Microelectromechanical Systems Resonator’s Next-Generation Cellular Technology"
DESCRIPTION:Advancements in wireless and sensor technology have resulted in increasing demand for piezoelectric MEMS devices in wireless handsets and base stations\, automobile technology\, health monitoring sensors\, and environmental sensors. Due to its high-quality factor (Q)\, Young’s modulus\, sound velocity\, and low mechanical and dielectric losses\, AlN is an advantageous resonator material with applications in radio frequency filtering. AlN’s low piezoelectric coefficients\, however\, limit its application\, especially when large electromechanical coupling is required such as wide bandwidth acoustic filters and energy harvesters. In 2009 it was discovered that alloying AlN with Scandium (Sc) increases its d33 piezoelectric coefficient by over 500% and maintains compatibility with post-CMOS integration when deposited below 〖400〗^∘{1}*. As process parameters and Sc levels are modified to enhance performance\, this also impacts the built-in stress in the film. Undesired stress can degrade device performance in thin films. Undesired phases and anomalously oriented grains (AOGs) reduce piezoelectric coefficients\, film orientation\, and modify stress. AOGs also render etching of device structures problematic as the AOG regions etch at a much lower rate. \nThis presentation will discuss the origins of stress and anomalous grain formation in AlScN physical vapor deposition processes\, establish methods to control the stress\, and inhibit anomalous grain growth at a range of scandium alloying levels to yield high quality AlScN films with large piezoelectric coefficients. Methods for mitigation and understanding of the physical mechanism behind stress gradients in AlScN thin films to reduce out-of-plane deformations in released MEMS structures will also be discussed. I demonstrate a technique where the total process gas flow is varied during the deposition to compensate for the native through-thickness stress gradient in sputtered AlScN thin films. Finally\, I will provide methods extract the AlScN stiffness\, piezoelectric\, and permittivity tenors from MEMS structures carefully designed to isolate various electromechanical parameters. \n{1}*M.
