Abstract: Multi-layer n- and p-type Si thin film structures are presented which are configured with through-thickness strain gradients in order to take advantage of flexoelectric polarization and achieve Rashba SOC at Si interfaces. In freestanding thin films, through-thickness strain gradients can be achieved due to differential thermal expansion. In on-substrate thin films, through-thickness strain gradients can be achieved by use of a thick insulating layer. The residual stress due to the insulating layer will give rise to through-thickness strain gradients as shown in FIG. 1B. The residual stresses can be controlled using layer thickness, deposition parameters and layer material. Examples systems include MgO/(p-Si), Pd/Ni81Fe19/MgO/p-Si, Pd/Ni80Fe20/MgO/n-Si, Pd/Ni80Fe20/MgO/p-Si, and Ni80Fe20/p-Si.

Abstract: A method of testing a sensor unit which detects, locally at the sensor unit, whether a person appears in the images it captures. The method comprises causing a light-emitting device (e.g. screen of a user terminal) to emit a test pattern toward the sensor unit to be captured over a series of images, the test pattern comprising a spatio-temporal pattern of light simulating presence of a predetermined number of people. The method further comprises, at a processing apparatus external to the sensor unit, receiving one or more presence detection reports from the sensor unit indicating an apparent people count detected using the sensor unit when subject to the test pattern. The apparent people count is then compared with the predetermined number of people simulated by the test pattern. Based on this comparison, it is determining whether the sensor unit is functioning correctly.
