Book Description
Le travail de thèse consiste à étudier des composants de la filière nitrure de gallium à partir d’études électriques et d’un modèle physico-thermique. Les dispositifs de cette filière sont très prometteurs pour des applications de puissance en hyperfréquence. Cependant, leurs performances électriques sont limitées par deux causes principales : La première cause est liée à la réalisation des contacts. Dans ce travail, nous avons étudié des contacts Schottky TiN sur hétérostructures AlGaN/GaN sur substrats Si (111) réalisés par pulvérisation magnétron. Une analyse détaillée des paramètres obtenus, tels que la hauteur de barrière, le coefficient d’idéalité et le courant de fuite en polarisation inverse, permet d’optimiser la topologie et le procédé technologique, tels que la température et la durée de recuit, la passivation et le prétraitement de surface. La théorie relative aux mécanismes de conduction à travers le contact est aussi rappelée, montrant que l’effet tunnel assisté par champ électrique et le courant limité par charge d’espace sont les mécanismes dominants. La seconde cause est liée à l’effet d’auto-échauffement important dans les composants de la filière GaN compte tenu des fortes puissances dissipées, ce qui dégrade leurs performances électriques ainsi que la fiabilité. Dans ce cadre, un modèle physico-thermique basé sur le couplage d’un modèle énergie-balance avec un modèle thermique a été développé. Ce modèle prend en compte la température de réseau en tout point du composant et décrit bien les performances électriques et thermiques des composants de cette filière. Grâce au modèle développé, nous avons d’abord analysé les hétérostructures AlGaN/GaN et InAlN/GaN sur différents substrats à partir de structures TLM, afin d’évaluer leurs performances électriques et thermiques, et ainsi d’optimiser le choix des substrats. Nous avons également étudié les diodes Gunn de la filière GaN avec différentes topologies, ce qui a permis d’optimiser une structure en termes de fréquence d’oscillations et de conversion de puissance, en prenant en compte les effets thermiques. Après une comparaison entre les résultats de simulation et ceux mesurés, il s’avère que le modèle physico-thermique est un outil de prédiction précis et fiable, extrêmement utile pour les technologues et qui permet en outre une meilleure compréhension des phénomènes physiques observés.

Book Description
Les composants MIS-HEMT à base de GaN suscitent un grand intérêt dans le domaine de la conversion de l’énergie. Mais aujourd’hui, il existe encore des difficultés majeures qui limitent leur développement. Notamment le phénomène de « current collapse » - résultant d’un mécanisme de piégeage par des niveaux profonds impacte directement le rendement de conversion de l’énergie des dispositifs. Ce sujet de thèse propose d’apporter une compréhension amont à ces mécanismes de piégeage en mettant en œuvre une technique appropriée de caractérisation des niveaux profonds par DLTS (Deep Level Transient Spectroscopy). Cette méthodologie permet de discerner des voies d’amélioration susceptibles d’être intégrées dans le processus de fabrication des composants. En effet, des mesures électriques menées directement sur composants permettent une caractérisation « matériau » proche des conditions de fonctionnement du transistor. Cette thèse comporte quatre chapitres. L’étude bibliographique du premier chapitre décrit l’intérêt de nitrure de gallium (GaN) pour les composants de puissance HEMT, les technologies des transistors HEMT normally-off à base de nitrure de gallium ainsi que l’influence de l’insertion d’une couche de type « p ». Le deuxième chapitre relate l’étude bibliographique sur les principaux défauts dans le GaN ainsi que les principes des méthodes de caractérisations utilisées au cours de la thèse. Dans le troisième chapitre, l’identification des pièges est établie par des mesures électrique (DLTS) et optiques (PL-UV). Six pièges à électrons et deux pièges à trous « hole-like » ont été identifiés. Ces pièges sont répartis entre défauts natifs (lacune, antisite..) et défauts technologiques (gravure, dopage). Le quatrième chapitre vise à localiser les pièges dans la structure à l’aide d’une étude comparative entre les techniques DLTS capacitive et DLTS courant sur dispositif MIS-HEMT, appuyée par des simulations électriques. Les résultats importants obtenus nous ont permis de discuter l’influence de la technologie sur les mécanismes de piégeage.

Book Description
Optimization is generally a reduction operation of a definite quantity. This process naturally takes place in our environment and through our activities. For example, many natural systems evolve, in order to minimize their potential energy. Modeling these phenomena then largely relies on our capacity to artificially reproduce these processes. In parallel, optimization problems have quickly emerged from human activities, notably from economic concerns. This book includes the most recent ideas coming from research and industry in the field of optimization, reliability and the recognition of accompanying uncertainties. It is made up of eight chapters which look at the reviewing of uncertainty tools, system reliability, optimal design of structures and their optimization (of sizing, form, topology and multi-objectives) – along with their robustness and issues on optimal safety factors. Optimization reliability coupling will also be tackled in order to take into account the uncertainties in the modeling and resolution of the problems encountered. The book is aimed at students, lecturers, engineers, PhD students and researchers. Contents 1. Uncertainty. 2. Reliability in Mechanical Systems. 3. Optimal Structural Design. 4. Multi-object Optimization with Uncertainty. 5. Robust Optimization. 6. Reliability Optimization. 7. Optimal Security Factors Approach. 8. Reliability-based Topology Optimization. About the Authors Abdelkhalak El Hami is Professor at the Institut National des Sciences Appliquées, Rouen, France. He is the author of many articles and books on optimization and uncertainty. Bouchaib Radi is Professor in the Faculty of Sciences and Technology at the University of Hassan Premier, Settat, Morocco. His research interests are in such areas as structural optimization, parallel computation, contact problem and metal forming. He is the author of many scientific articles and books.

Book Description
This book focuses on the methods of storage commonly used in hybrid systems. After an introductory chapter reviewing the basics of electrochemistry, Chapter 2 is given over to the storage of electricity in the form of hydrogen. Once hydrogen has been made, we have to be able to convert it back into electricity on demand. This can be done with another energy converter: a fuel cell, the subject of Chapter 3. Such a system is unable to deliver significant dynamics in terms of storage and release of electricity and needs to be supplemented with another solution: a detailed study of supercapacitors is provided in Chapter 4.While the storage systems touched upon in the previous three chapters (hydrogen batteries and supercapacitors) both exhibit advantageous characteristics, at present they are still relatively costly. Thus, the days of the electrochemical accumulator by no means appear to be numbered just yet. This will therefore be the topic of Chapter 5. Finally, on the basis of the elements laid down in the previous chapters, Chapter 6 will focus on electrical hybridization of these storage systems, with a view to enhancing the performance (in terms of energy, lifetime, cost, etc.) of the newly formed system. Aimed at an audience of researchers, industrialists, academics, teachers and students, many exercises, along with corrected solutions, are provided throughout the book. Contents 1. Basic Concepts of Electrochemistry used in Electrical Engineering. 2. Water Electrolyzers. 3. Fuel Cells. 4. Electrical Energy Storage by Supercapacitors. 5. Electrochemical Accumulators. 6. Hybrid Electrical System. About the Authors Marie-Cécile Péra is a Full Professor at the University of Franche-Comte in France and Deputy Director of the FEMTO-ST Institute (CNRS).
