[Invited] High frequency electronic devices : impact of beyond graphene materials

Henri Happy, D. Mele, Ivy Colambo, Mohamed Salah Khenissa, Mohamed Moez Belhaj, Emiliano Pallecchi, Abdelkarim Ouerghi, Dominique Vignaud, Gilles Dambrine

Considering graphene field effect transistors (GFETs), considerable efforts have been made during the recent years to reach impressive current gain cut-off frequency (ft) over 400 GHz. Unfortunately, for these devices, the maximum frequency of oscillation (fmax) remains under 100GHz. This deviation…

A MIMO random channel generator for indoor power-line communication

Kassim Khalil, Marc G. Gazalet, Patrick Corlay, François-Xavier Coudoux, M Gharbi

Multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) technology has already been used in power-line communication (PLC). An accurate description of MIMO channels for PLC network topologies is of great interest and importance in the development and testing of digital communication algorithms. However, the…

Effect of thickness and deposition rate on the structural and magnetic properties of evaporated Fe/Al thin films

M. Mebarki, A. Layadi, L. Kerkache, A. Benabbas, Nicolas Tiercelin, Vladimir Preobrazhensky, Philippe Pernod

We report experimental results on the structural and magnetic properties of Fe thin films deposited by thermal evaporation onto polycrystalline Al substrates. The effect of thickness t (in the 76 to 431 nm range) and deposition rate are investigated. The texture, the strain, and the grain size…

Influence of processing gases on the properties of cold atmospheric plasma SiOxCy coatings

H. Hamze, Maude Jimenez, D. Deresmes, Arnaud Beaurain, Nicolas Nuns, Michel Traisnel

Thin layers of SiOxCy (y = 4−x and 3 ≤ x ≤ 4) were applied using a cold atmospheric plasma torch on glass substrates. The aim was to investigate using Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (Tof-Sims) the influence of…

Electro-optic and converse-piezoelectric properties of epitaxial GaN grown on silicon by metal-organic chemical vapor deposition

Mireille Cuniot-Ponsard, Irma Saraswati, S.M. Ko, Mathieu Halbwax, Y.H. Cho, El Hadj Dogheche

We report the measurement of the (r13, r33) Pockels electro-optic coefficients in a GaN thin film grown on a Si(111) substrate. The converse piezoelectric (d33) and electro-absorptive coefficients are simultaneously determined. Single crystalline GaN epitaxial layers were grown with a AlGaN buffer…

Experimentation and modeling of node energy consumption in wireless sensor networks

Román Igual-Pérez, Alexandre Boé, Nathalie Rolland, Laurent Clavier

Wireless sensor networks could be widely used in a large variety of applications such as smart cities, structural health monitoring. However, their large scale deployment is limited by the lifetime of the nodes. A joint optimization of both hardware and software is a promising solution to decrease…

Caractérisation quantitative des capacités sous échelle de 10 nm avec un interférométrique scanning-microwave-microscopy

Fei Wang, Nicolas Clément, Damien Ducatteau, David Troadec, Bernard Legrand, Gilles Dambrine, Didier Theron

Nous présentons une façon de caractériser quantitativement des capacités sous échelle de 10 nm à l'aide d'un scanning-microwave-microscope modifié avec un interféromètre (iSMM). Des milliers de capacités à l'échelle nanométrique (nanoplots) et un kit de capacités de calibrages sont…

Millimeter-wave in situ tuner : an efficient solution to extract the noise parameters of SiGe HBTs in the whole 130-170 GHz range

Marina Deng, Laurent Poulain, Daniel Gloria, Thomas Quémerais, Pascal Chevalier, Sylvie Lepilliet, Francois Danneville, Gilles Dambrine

SiGe HBT noise parameters ( , and ) are for the first time extracted in the entire 130 - 170 GHz frequency range. This achievement is realized using a D-band on-chip source-pull system, which includes an impedance tuner integrated with the transistor under test. On-wafer noise power measurements on…

Joint estimation of state and noise parameters in a linear dynamic system with impulsive measurement noise: Application to OFDM systems

Nouha Jaoua, Emmanuel Duflos, Philippe Vanheeghe, Laurent Clavier, François Septier

Interference mitigation is one of the main challenges in wireless communication, especially in ad hoc networks. In such context, the Multiple Access Interference (MAI) is known to be of an impulsive nature. Therefore, the conventional Gaussian assumption is inadequate to model this type of…
