Contribution au développement d'une méthode à ondes acoustiques de surface hautes fréquences dédiée à la caractérisation ultrasonore des structures à couches minces et au silicium mésoporeux, Contribution to the development of a high frequency surface acoustic wave method dedicated to the ultrasonic characterization of thin film structures and mesoporous silicon

Tahar Kadi

Ce travail rentre dans le cadre de la caractérisation des couches minces, de revêtements et de surfaces fonctionnelles (épaisseur, constantes élastiques, porosité…). Parmi les méthodes de caractérisation potentielles, les méthodes ultrasonores employant des ondes de surface (SAW) sont…, This work is within the scope of characterization of thin layers, coatings and functional surfaces (thickness, elastic constants, porosity,…). Among the characterization methods, the ultrasonic methods using surface acoustic waves are particularly interesting. Indeed, the propagation of these waves…

Linear electromagnetic energy harvester system embedded on a vehicle suspension: From modeling to performance analysis

Barbara Lafarge, Sébastien Grondel, Christophe Delebarre, Octavian Curea, Claude Richard

Although linear electromagnetic energy harvester (LEH) is a promising technique for converting energy in a vehicle suspension, due to the large displacements, one of the main drawbacks of the solutions inside the vehicle is still their size and complexity. To address this issue, this paper focuses…

Above 70% PAE in Q-band with AlN/GaN HEMTs structures

Kathia Harrouche, Riad Kabouche, Etienne Okada, F Medjdoub

In this paper, we report on a vertically scaled AlN/GaN HEMT technology. The comparison between a 3 nm and 4 nm barrier thickness shows both superior performances and robustness for the thinner barrier layer, which is attributed to the reduced mechanical strain into the heterostructure. The impact…

Investigation of electrical activity at the AlN/Si interface using scanning capacitance microscopy and scanning spreading resistance microscopy

Micka Bah, Damien Valente, Marie Lesecq, N. Defrance, Maxime Garcia Barros, Jean-Claude de Jaeger, Eric Frayssinet, Remi Comyn, Thi Huong Ngo, Daniel Alquier, Yvon Cordier

This work aims to understand the origin of propagation losses in GaN-on-Si devices at microwave frequencies thanks to original AFM's electrical modes such as scanning capacitance microscopy (SCM) and scanning spreading resistance microscopy (SSRM). AlN films on Si substrate were grown using…

GaN schottky diode on silicon substrate for high power THz multiplier

Giuseppe Di Gioia, M Samnouni, H Bouillaud, P Mondal, J Treuttel, Yvon Cordier, Malek Zegaoui, Guillaume Ducournau, Yannick Roelens, Mohammed Zaknoune

GaN-based planar Schottky barrier diodes with potential applications in THz frequency multipliers were fabricated on silicon substrate and characterized. GaN is a promising candidate to overcome all the physical limitations of GaAs which have been reached in the frame of high frequency power…

Fluorine-based plasma treatment for AlGaN/GaN e-mode HEMTs and low on-voltage diodes

Quentin Fornasiero, N. Defrance, Marie Lesecq, Eric Frayssinet, Yvon Cordier, Florian Chevalier, Nadir Idir, Jean-Claude de Jaeger

The onset and pinch-off voltages shift of lateral GaN field-effect rectifier diodes (L-FER) and normally-off HEMTs are studied. It is shown that a short duration of low power SF6 plasma followed by a low temperature annealing permits to get an effective and stabilized fluorine ion implantation in…

AlGaN/GaN HEMTs on AlN substrate for power electronics

Jash Mehta, Idriss Abid, Thi Huong Ngo, Yvon Cordier, F Medjdoub

GaN high electron mobility transistors (HEMT) are becoming the mainstream for high frequency and power switching applications. On the other hand, Ultra-Wide Band Gap (UWBG) materials such as AlN that has a bandgap of 6.2 eV are attracting attention for pushing the limits of high voltage power…

Subthreshold neuromorphic devices for spiking neural networks applied to embedded A.I

Christophe Loyez, Kevin Carpentier, Ilias Sourikopoulos, Francois Danneville

Energy autonomy is one of the major challenges of embedded Artificial Intelligence. Among the candidate technologies likely to take up such a challenge, spiking neural networks are the most promising because of both their spatio-temporal and sparse representation of the information. In this context…
