Contribution à l'assurance fiabilité de filières HEMTs à base de GaN sur substrat SiC : caractérisation électrique approfondie et modélisaton des effets parasites / Contribution in reliability insurance of GaN HEMT on SiC substrate : electrical characterization and modeling of parasitic effects

Brunel, Laurent 27 May 2014 (has links)
Ces travaux s'inscrivent dans le cadre de la qualification des technologies GaN de UMS et plus particulièrement celle de la technologie GH25, et a pour objectif d’apporter un soutien direct au développement des technologies UMS à base de GaN. Le premier chapitre traite des généralités sur les HEMTs AlGaN/GaN. Le deuxième chapitre est consacré à la description des technologies GH50 et GH25 de UMS. Les éléments passifs de la technologie GH25 ont été caractérisés électriquement et thermiquement, puis des mesures de claquage utilisant une technique d’injection de courant de drain ont été mises en oeuvre sur des HEMTs de la technologie GH50 afin d’évaluer l'aire de sécurité de fonctionnement. Le troisième chapitre est dédié à l'étude des effets parasites rencontrés sur les deux technologies GH50 et GH25.Chacun des effets parasites est décrit puis caractérisé de façon approfondie. Le dernier chapitre se concentre sur l'étude de la fiabilité de la technologie GH25. Après avoir présenté les différentes variantes technologiques, les résultats des tests de vieillissement accéléré mis en oeuvre à UMS sont analysés afin d'évaluer leur impact sur la fiabilité de la technologieGH25 et d’identifier les mécanismes de dégradation et les effets parasites. / This work is incorporated within the framework of the qualification of UMS GaNtechnologies and more particularly of the GH25 technology, and aims to support thedevelopment of UMS GaN based technologies.

Passive components of GH25 technology have beencharacterized through electrical and thermal measurement, and then breakdown measurementsusing a drain current injection technique have been carried out on GH50 HEMT in order toevaluate the safe operating area of these devices. The third part is dedicated to the study of theparasitic effects observed on the two technologies GH50 and GH25. Each of these parasiticeffects is described and fully characterized. The last part of this work focuses on the study ofthe GH25 technology. Technological variations are first introduced, and then results ofaccelerated aging test carried out at UMS are analyzed to evaluate their impact on thereliability of the GH25 technology and to identify wear out mechanism and parasitic effects.

Les travaux de these s’inscrivent dans le cadre de deux projets: ReAGaN et ExtremeGaN avec des industriels (UMS, Serma Technologies, Thales TRT) et des laboratoires derecherche (LEPMI, LAAS et l’université de Bristol).Les deux technologies GaN (GH50 et GH25) étudiées dans cette thèse sont fournies parla société United Monolithic Semiconductors (UMS) et elles ont été qualifiées durant cettethèse. Plusieurs composants ont subi des tests de vieillissement accéléré en températureréalisés par UMS, ensuite une campagne de caractérisation électrique approfondie a étéréalisée au laboratoire IMS afin d’étudier les effets parasites et les mécanismes de dégradationqui limitent la fiabilté de cette filière.Le premier chapitre traite les bases du transistor HEMT à base de GaN.

Many devices were submitted to high temperature accelerated life tests by UMSand characterized at IMS laboratory to study the parasitic effects and degradationsmechanisms that are limiting the electrical reliability of GaN based HEMTs technology.The first chapter gives an overview of the basics of GaN based high electron mobilitytransistors (HEMTs). Gallium Nitride material features are reviewed as well as substratessuited for GaN based devices.

The electrical characterization techniques used at IMS during this thesis arepresented.The third chapter is divided into four case studies; three case studies are in theframework of ReAGaN project and the fourth one in the Extreme GaN project. In the firstcase study, we investigate the conduction mechanisms inducing the leakage current inAlGaN/GaN HEMTs issued from GH50 process. The second case study is dedicated to thestudy of an electrical parasitic effect that appears on the Schottky diode forward characteristicafter temperature accelerated life tests. In the third case study, we study the influence of Almole fraction on the DC electrical parameters of AlGaN/GaN HEMTs. The last case studyconsists in the determination of the limits and safe operating area (SOA) of UMS GH25 GaNHEMTs by carrying out the two and three terminal breakdown voltages measurements.

The Design of Passive Networks with Full-Wave Component Models

Valentino, Eric 27 June 2019 (has links)
In this thesis, the design of passive networks with the aid of full-wave simulation software and geometry-based models of lumped elements is investigated. This is done by examining the results of a number of simulation examples, as well as measured data from manufactured designs to compare against simulated equivalents. One such example is a chip antenna evaluation board design, in which the PCB, antenna, matching components and connector are all modeled. When measured, the simulation agreed with the board’s best matched frequency of 5.5 GHz to within 20 MHz. In another, a new antenna layout is generated from an existing evaluation design which, produced a match of about -15 dB at the design frequency with a similar bandwidth to that shown on the antenna datasheet on the first attempt at manufacture. Additionally, a statistical experiment was conducted in order to provide insight into the phenomenon of coupling between lumped components, and to define clearly when it starts to become an important effect to consider. For both chip capacitors and inductors, a behavioral model of how much crosstalk is present in a prospective circuit was developed which takes into account angle and distance between components, as well as case size. Finally, a simple discrete gradient descent was implemented in a commercial full-wave simulation software in order to assist in the refinement of designs containing 3-D geometry-defined component models.

Analýza dynamických parametrů laserových vibrometrů / Analysis of dynamic parameters of laser vibrometers

Pavloň, Martin January 2017 (has links)
This diploma thesis deals with the theoretical description of interference methods used to measure vibrations, examines main parasitic effects and analyses its contribution to achievable the resolution. In the practical part, it uses several measurements to verify the effects of the level of reflected beam, stand-off distance and speckle noise. It also proposes a practical experiment for measuring dynamic parameters and signal-noise ratio. Results show that, the noise is exponentially dependent on the level of the reflected beam. The visible maximum of the vibrometer proved to be critical in terms of time stability of the measured signal level in two of the three measurements. Results of the dynamic measurement show that, the measured deviations were not degraded or significantly disturbed by the noise signal. From the measurement of the speckle noise, it emerged that the lowest level of noise is achieved with smooth and highly reflective materials.
