High-Precision, Mixed-Signal Mismatch Measurement of Metal-Oxide-Metal Capacitors and a 13-GHz 5-bit 360-Degree Phase Shifter

Bustamante, Danilo 05 August 2020 (has links)
A high-precision mixed-signal mismatch measurement technique for metal-oxide metal (MoM) capacitors as well as the design of a 13-GHz 5-bit 360-degree phase shifter are presented. This thesis presents a high-precision, mixed-signal mismatch measurement technique for metal-oxide–metal capacitors. The proposed technique incorporates a switched-capacitor op amp within the measurement circuit to significantly improve the measurement precision while relaxing the resolution requirement on the backend analog-to-digital converter (ADC). The proposed technique is also robust against multiple types of errors. A detailed analysis is presented to quantify the sensitivity improvement of the proposed technique over the conventional one. In addition, this thesis proposes a multiplexing technique to measure a large number of capacitors in a single chip and a new layout to improve matching. A prototype fabricated in 180 nm CMOS technology demonstrates the ability to sense capacitor mismatch standard deviation as low as 0.045% with excellent repeatability, all without the need of a high-resolution ADC. The 13-GHz 5-bit 360-degree phase shifter consists of 2 stages. The first stage utilizes a delay line for 4-bit 180-degree phase shift. A second stage provides 1-bit 180-degree phase shift. The phase shifter includes gain tuning so as to allow a gain variation of less than 1 dB. The design has been fabricated in 180 nm CMOS technology and measurement results show a complete 360◦ phase shift with an average step size of 10.7◦ at 13-GHz. After calibration the phase shifter presented an output gain S21 of 0.5 dB with a gain variation of less than 1 dB across all codes at 13-GHz. The remaining s-parameter testing showed a S22 and S11 below -11 dB and a S12 below -49 dB at 13 GHz.

Nanoscopic studies of domain structure dynamics in ferroelectric La:HfO2 capacitors

Buragohain, P., Richter, C., Schenk, Tony, Schroeder, Uwe, Mikolajick, Thomas, Lu, H., Gruverman, A. 27 April 2022 (has links)
Visualization of domain structure evolution under an electrical bias has been carried out in ferroelectric La:HfO2 capacitors by a combination of Piezoresponse Force Microscopy (PFM) and pulse switching techniques to study the nanoscopic mechanism of polarization reversal and the wake-up process. It has been directly shown that the main mechanism behind the transformation of the polarization hysteretic behavior and an increase in the remanent polarization value upon the alternating current cycling is electrically induced domain de-pinning. PFM imaging and local spectroscopy revealed asymmetric switching in the La:HfO2 capacitors due to a significant imprint likely caused by the different boundary conditions at the top and bottom interfaces. Domain switching kinetics can be well-described by the nucleation limited switching model characterized by a broad distribution of the local switching times. It has been found that the domain velocity varies significantly throughout the switching process indicating strong interaction with structural defects.

Méthodologie de conception numérique d'un module de puissance dédié à l'automobile en vue de l'optimisation des surtensions, des pertes et des émissions conduites / Methodology of numerical design of a power module dedicated to the automobile with optimizing overvoltages, losses and conducted emissions

Daou, Hocine 08 February 2018 (has links)
Le véhicule électrique (VE) s'inscrit actuellement dans un contexte industriel fortement corrélé aux contraintes environnementales. Un tel contexte où la minimisation des coûts est également vitale impose par conséquent des contraintes de développement et de réalisation. Les modules de puissance constituent un coût conséquent dans un système de conversion pour l'automobile. Nous nous plaçons dans le contexte des modules de puissance à IGBT en technologie silicium qui assurent les fonctions de conversion d’énergie (AC/DC ou DC/AC) pour des applications moyennes et fortes puissances. L’un des points les plus limitant de ces modules est l’aspect inductif de la maille de commutation. L’intégration de condensateurs de découplage (Ceq) au sein du module permet de réduire les effets des inductances parasites car ils offrent un chemin à basse impédance au courant commuté et augmentent la vitesse de commutation du composant. C’est cette solution que nous avons étudiée. Le but est de démontrer la faisabilité d’une telle solution couplée avec le choix optimal de la résistance de grille (Rg) des puces IGBT. Nous avons établi des règles de conception permettant la construction de modèles circuit d’un bras d’onduleur permettant l’intégration de fonction de découplage. Ce dernier nous a permis dans un premier temps de réduire les surtensions aux bornes des composants mais les pertes par commutation n’ont pas pu être améliorées significativement en comparaison à un module conventionnel. La démarche suivie pour aller plus loin a consisté à chercher un compromis entre les valeurs des condensateurs distribués dans le module et le choix des résistances de grille des puces IGBT. L’optimisation par algorithmes génétiques est la solution qui a été trouvée pour contourner les problèmes bloquants et améliorer significativement les performances du module. / Modern converter concepts demand increasing energy efficiency and flexibility in de-sign and construction. Considering that the dependency of the switching losses on various factors such as the switching voltage, switching current, stray inductance (Lstray) and the reverse recovery process of the freewheeling diode, various concepts have been developed to decrease power modules stray inductance for the purpose of loss reduction but with risk of exceeding the maximum rated blocking voltage. However, considering practical design requirement, lower stray inductance is not necessarily beneficial for the system. This leads to the question of tolerable size of parasitic inductance and best dI/di and dv/dt rate for low commutation losses and low voltage spikes.

Electrolyte for high energy- and power-density zinc batteries and ion capacitors

Chen, Peng, Sun, Xiaohan, Pietsch, Tobias, Plietker, Bernd, Brunner, Eike, Ruck, Michael 22 February 2024 (has links)
Growth of dendrites, limited coulombic efficiency (CE), and the lack of high-voltage electrolytes restrict the commercialization of zinc batteries and capacitors. These issues are resolved by a new electrolyte, based on the zinc(II)–betaine complex [Zn(bet)2][NTf2]2. Solutions in acetonitrile (AN) avoid dendrite formation. A Zn||Zn cell operates stably over 10 110 h (5055 cycles) at 0.2 mA cm−2 or 110 h at 50 mA cm−2, and has an area capacity of 113 mAh cm−2 at 80% depth of discharge. A zinc–graphite battery performs at 2.6 V with a midpoint discharge-voltage of 2.4 V. The capacity-retention at 3 A g−1 (150 C) is 97% after 1000 cycles and 68% after 10 000 cycles. The charge/discharge time is about 24 s at 3.0 A g−1 with an energy density of 49 Wh kg−1 at a power density of 6864 W kg−1 based on the cathode. A zinc||activated-carbon ion-capacitor (coin cell) exhibits an operating-voltage window of 2.5 V, an energy density of 96 Wh kg−1 with a power density of 610 W kg−1 at 0.5 A g−1. At 12 A g−1, 36 Wh kg−1, and 13 600 W kg−1 are achieved with 90% capacity-retention and an average CE of 96% over 10 000 cycles. Quantum-chemical methods and vibrational spectroscopy reveal [Zn(bet)2(AN)2]2+ as the dominant complex in the electrolyte.

Fluid Imprint and Inertial Switching in Ferroelectric La:HfO2 Capacitors

Buragohain, Pratyush, Erickson, Adam, Kariuki, Pamenas, Mittmann, Terence, Richter, Claudia, Lomenzo, Patrick D., Lu, Haidong, Schenk, Tony, Mikolajick, Thomas, Schroeder, Uwe, Gruverman, Alexei 04 October 2022 (has links)
Ferroelectric (FE) HfO₂-based thin films, which are considered as one of the most promising material systems for memory device applications, exhibit an adverse tendency for strong imprint. Manifestation of imprint is a shift of the polarization–voltage (P–V) loops along the voltage axis due to the development of an internal electric bias, which can lead to the failure of the writing and retention functions. Here, to gain insight into the mechanism of the imprint effect in La-doped HfO₂ (La:HfO₂) capacitors, we combine the pulse switching technique with high-resolution domain imaging by means of piezoresponse force microscopy. This approach allows us to establish a correlation between the macroscopic switching characteristics and domain time–voltage-dependent behavior. It has been shown that the La:HfO₂ capacitors exhibit a much more pronounced imprint compared to Pb(Zr,Ti)O₃-based FE capacitors. Also, in addition to conventional imprint, which evolves with time in the poled capacitors, an easily changeable imprint, termed as “fluid imprint”, with a strong dependence on the switching prehistory and measurement conditions, has been observed. Visualization of the domain structure reveals a specific signature of fluid imprint—continuous switching of polarization in the same direction as the previously applied field that continues a long time after the field was turned off. This effect, termed as “inertial switching”, is attributed to charge injection and subsequent trapping at defect sites at the film–electrode interface.

Redox-Active Metaphosphate-Like Terminals Enable High-Capacity MXene Anodes for Ultrafast Na-Ion Storage

Sun, Boya, Lu, Qiongqiong, Chen, Kaixuan, Zheng, Wenhao, Liao, Zhongquan, Lopatik, Nikolaj, Li, Dongqi, Hantusch, Martin, Zhou, Shengqiang, Wang, Hai I., Sofer, Zdeněk, Brunner, Eike, Zschech, Ehrenfried, Bonn, Mischa, Dronskowski, Richard, Mikhailova, Daria, Liu, Qinglei, Zhang, Di, Yu, Minghao, Feng, Xinliang 08 April 2024 (has links)
2D transition metal carbides and/or nitrides, so-called MXenes, are noted as ideal fast-charging cation-intercalation electrode materials, which nevertheless suffer from limited specific capacities. Herein, it is reported that constructing redox-active phosphorus−oxygen terminals can be an attractive strategy for Nb4C3 MXenes to remarkably boost their specific capacities for ultrafast Na+ storage. As revealed, redox-active terminals with a stoichiometric formula of PO2- display a metaphosphate-like configuration with each P atom sustaining three P-O bonds and one P=O dangling bond. Compared with conventional O-terminals, metaphosphate-like terminals empower Nb4C3 (denoted PO2-Nb4C3) with considerably enriched carrier density (fourfold), improved conductivity (12.3-fold at 300 K), additional redox-active sites, boosted Nb redox depth, nondeclined Na+-diffusion capability, and buffered internal stress during Na+ intercalation/de-intercalation. Consequently, compared with O-terminated Nb4C3, PO2-Nb4C3 exhibits a doubled Na+-storage capacity (221.0 mAh g-1), well-retained fast-charging capability (4.9 min at 80% capacity retention), significantly promoted cycle life (nondegraded capacity over 2000 cycles), and justified feasibility for assembling energy−power-balanced Na-ion capacitors. This study unveils that the molecular-level design of MXene terminals provides opportunities for developing simultaneously high-capacity and fast-charging electrodes, alleviating the energy−power tradeoff typical for energy-storage devices.

Stabilisierung der ferroelektrischen Phase in Hafniumdioxid

Mittmann, Terence 27 June 2024 (has links)
Die Digitalisierung ist in vollem Gange. Viele Geräte werden intelligent, das heißt sie bekommen ein eigenes Rechenwerk und werden mit permanentem Internetzugang ausgestattet. Da viele dieser neuen intelligenten Geräte möglichst mobil sein sollen, werden neue energieeffiziente nichtflüchtige Halbleiterspeicher notwendig. Das hat zur Folge, dass großer Forschungsaufwand in die Entwicklung neuer Speicherkonzepte und der dafür notwendigen Materialien gesteckt wird. Daraus ergibt sich ein breites Forschungsfeld für zukünftige Speicherkonzepte. Hierfür wird versucht auf Grundlage von ferroelektrischen, magnetischen oder resistiven Materialeigenschaften neue Speicherbauelemente zu entwickeln und zur Anwendung zu bringen. Daraus folgten bereits Konzepte wie der magnetische RAM, der resistive RAM und der ferroelektrische RAM. Neue ferroelektrische Speicherkonzepte basierend auf Materialien mit Perowskitstruktur zeigten zwar viele positive Eigenschaften, konnten aber mangels ausreichender Skalierbarkeit keinen breiten Marktzugang finden. Die Entdeckung von Ferroelektrizität in dünnen dotierten HfO2-Schichten kann dieses Problem überwinden und ist dadurch für die weitere Entwicklung neuer Speicherkonzepte von großer Bedeutung. Das Mischoxid Hafniumdioxid-Zirkondioxid hat sich als eines der geeignetsten auf Hafniumdioxid basierenden ferroelektrischen Materialsysteme erwiesen. Gemein haben alle ferroelektrischen hafniumbasierten Schichten, dass die polare orthorhombische Kristallphase der Ursprung des ferroelektrischen Verhaltens ist. Das Verständnis der Phasenübergänge und der Phasenstabilisierung in dotiertem, ferroelektrischem HfO2 ist somit von entscheidender Bedeutung für zukünftige ferroelektrische Speicheranwendungen. In dieser Arbeit wird der Einfluss der Sauerstoffkonzentration auf die Stabilisierung der monoklinen, orthorhombischen und tetragonalen Kristallphasen und deren Auswirkung auf die ferroelektrischen Eigenschaften untersucht. Dafür werden detaillierte elektrische und strukturelle Untersuchungen an gesputterten und mit Atomlagenabscheidung hergestellten, dünnen HfO2- und Hf(1-x)Zr(x)O2-Schichten vorgenommen. Die Sauerstoffkonzentration wurde entweder direkt über die Prozessparameter während der Abscheidung oder nachträglich durch Änderung der Elektrodenstöchiometrie beeinflusst. Dadurch konnten Parameter gefunden werden, die die Stabilisierung der ferroelektrischen orthorhombischen Kristallphase positiv beeinflussen. Temperaturabhängige Untersuchungen erlaubten zusätzlich die nähere Betrachtung welcher Klasse von Ferroelektrika ferroelektrisches Hafniumdioxid zugeordnet werden kann. Für den orthorhombisch-tetragonalen Phasenübergang konnte ein Phasenübergang erster Ordnung mit kleiner Temperaturhysterese und einem Peak in der relativen Permittivität, in Übereinstimmung mit dem Curie-Weiss-Verhalten, beobachtet werden. Mit diesen und weiteren Beobachtungen kann HfO2 sehr wahrscheinlich der Klasse der echten Ferroelektrika zugeordnet werden. Die Ergebnisse dieser Arbeit schließen eine weitere Lücke im Verständnis der Ferroelektrizität in HfO2 und können ein weiterer Schritt auf dem Weg zur Anwendung auf dem Massenmarkt sein.:Index I 1 Einleitung 1 2 Theoretische Grundlagen 3 2.1 Ferroelektrizität . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 3 2.1.1 Thermodynamische Betrachtungen der Ferroelektrizität . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 6 2.1.2 Preisach-Modell und das Auftreten ferroelektrischer Domänen . . . . . . . . . . 11 2.1.3 Reales ferroelektrisches Verhalten . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 12 2.2 Ferroelektrizität in HfO 2 -basierten Materialien . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 13 2.2.1 Ursachen der Ferroelektrizität in Hafniumdioxid . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 16 2.2.2 Ferroelektrisches Verhalten dünner HfO 2 -Schichten . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 21 2.3 Anwendungsmöglichkeiten ferroelektrischer Materialien . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 29 2.3.1 Speicheranwendungen . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 29 2.3.2 Weitere Anwendungsfelder . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 35 3 Probenherstellung und deren elektrische und strukturelle Charakterisierung 36 3.1 Prozessfluss . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 36 3.1.1 Atomlagenabscheidung . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 38 3.1.2 Sputterabscheidung . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 39 3.2 Strukturelle Charakterisierung . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 44 3.3 Chemische Charakterisierung . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 45 3.4 Elektrische Charakterisierung . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 47 4 Stabilisierung der ferroelektrischen Phase in HfO 2 und der Einfluss der Sau- erstoffkonzentration 49 4.1 Undotiertes gesputtertes HfO 2 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 51 4.1.1 Eigenschaften undotierter gesputterter HfO 2 -Schichten . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 51 4.1.2 Einfluss der Sauerstoffkonzentration während der Abscheidung auf die orthorhom- bische Phase . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 61 4.2 Zusammenspiel von Sauerstoffkonzentration und ZrO 2 -Konzentration . . . . . . 72 4.3 Einfluss von IrO 2 -Metalloxidelektroden auf die orthorhombische Phase der HfO 2 - Schichten . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 84 5 Temperaturstabilität der ferroelektrischen Schichten 97 5.1 Einfluss der Ozondosiszeit auf mit Atomlagenabscheidung hergestellte Hf 0,5 Zr 0,5 O 2 - Schichten . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 97 5.2 Temperaturabhängige Phasentransformation . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 102 5.3 Klassifizierung von ferroelektrischem HfO 2 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 120 5.4 Temperaturstabilität des Konditionierungseffekts . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 123 5.5 Zusammenfassung . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 126 6 Zusammenfassung und Ausblick 127 Literaturverzeichnis XII Abbildungsverzeichnis XLII Tabellenverzeichnis LII A Abkürzungen und Formelzeichen LIII B Publikationsliste LVII C Danksagung LXII D Lebenslauf LXIV / Digitization is in full swing. Many prior offline devices are becoming smart devices with permanent internet access. Since many of these new smart devices are expected to be as mobile as possible, new energy-efficient non-volatile semiconductor memories are needed. As a consequence, a great effort of research is being put into the development of new memory concepts and the materials required for them. This results in the research field of emerging memories, which tries to develop and apply new memory concepts based on ferroelectric, magnetic or resistive material properties. Concepts such as magnetic RAM, resistive RAM and ferroelectric RAM followed. Ferroelectric memory concepts based on perovskite showed many positive properties, but could not find a broad market access due to a lack of sufficient scalability. The discovery of ferroelectricity in doped HfO2 thin films can overcome this problem and is thus of great importance for the further development of new memory concepts. The composition of hafnium dioxide and zirconium dioxide has proven to be one of the most suitable hafnium-based ferroelectric material systems. Common to all ferroelectric hafnium-based films is that the polar orthorhombic crystal phase is the origin of the ferroelectric behavior. Thus, understanding the phase transitions and stabilization in doped ferroelectric HfO2 is crucial for future ferroelectric memory applications. In this work, the influence of oxygen concentration on the stabilization of the monoclinic, orthorhombic and tetragonal crystal phase and its effect on the ferroelectric properties is investigated. For this purpose, detailed electrical and structural studies are performed on sputtered and atomic layer deposition prepared thin HfO2 and Hf(1-x)Zr(x)O2 films. The oxygen concentration was influenced either directly by the process parameters during deposition or subsequently by changing the electrode stoichiometry. Thus, parameters were found to positively influence the stabilization of the ferroelectric orthorhombic crystal phase. Temperature-dependent investigations additionally allowed a closer look at which class of ferroelectrics hafnium oxide-based ferroelectrics can be assigned to. For the orthorhombic-tetragonal phase transition, a first-order phase transition with small temperature hysteresis and a peak in relative permittivity, in agreement with the Curie-Weiss-behavior, could be observed. With these and other observations, HfO2 can most likely be assigned to the class of proper ferroelectrics. The results of this work fill another gap in the understanding of ferroelectricity in HfO2 and may be another step towards mass market applications.:Index I 1 Einleitung 1 2 Theoretische Grundlagen 3 2.1 Ferroelektrizität . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 3 2.1.1 Thermodynamische Betrachtungen der Ferroelektrizität . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 6 2.1.2 Preisach-Modell und das Auftreten ferroelektrischer Domänen . . . . . . . . . . 11 2.1.3 Reales ferroelektrisches Verhalten . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 12 2.2 Ferroelektrizität in HfO 2 -basierten Materialien . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 13 2.2.1 Ursachen der Ferroelektrizität in Hafniumdioxid . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 16 2.2.2 Ferroelektrisches Verhalten dünner HfO 2 -Schichten . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 21 2.3 Anwendungsmöglichkeiten ferroelektrischer Materialien . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 29 2.3.1 Speicheranwendungen . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 29 2.3.2 Weitere Anwendungsfelder . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 35 3 Probenherstellung und deren elektrische und strukturelle Charakterisierung 36 3.1 Prozessfluss . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 36 3.1.1 Atomlagenabscheidung . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 38 3.1.2 Sputterabscheidung . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 39 3.2 Strukturelle Charakterisierung . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 44 3.3 Chemische Charakterisierung . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 45 3.4 Elektrische Charakterisierung . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 47 4 Stabilisierung der ferroelektrischen Phase in HfO 2 und der Einfluss der Sau- erstoffkonzentration 49 4.1 Undotiertes gesputtertes HfO 2 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 51 4.1.1 Eigenschaften undotierter gesputterter HfO 2 -Schichten . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 51 4.1.2 Einfluss der Sauerstoffkonzentration während der Abscheidung auf die orthorhom- bische Phase . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 61 4.2 Zusammenspiel von Sauerstoffkonzentration und ZrO 2 -Konzentration . . . . . . 72 4.3 Einfluss von IrO 2 -Metalloxidelektroden auf die orthorhombische Phase der HfO 2 - Schichten . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 84 5 Temperaturstabilität der ferroelektrischen Schichten 97 5.1 Einfluss der Ozondosiszeit auf mit Atomlagenabscheidung hergestellte Hf 0,5 Zr 0,5 O 2 - Schichten . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 97 5.2 Temperaturabhängige Phasentransformation . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 102 5.3 Klassifizierung von ferroelektrischem HfO 2 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 120 5.4 Temperaturstabilität des Konditionierungseffekts . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 123 5.5 Zusammenfassung . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 126 6 Zusammenfassung und Ausblick 127 Literaturverzeichnis XII Abbildungsverzeichnis XLII Tabellenverzeichnis LII A Abkürzungen und Formelzeichen LIII B Publikationsliste LVII C Danksagung LXII D Lebenslauf LXIV

Fiabilité et miniaturisation des condensateurs pour l'aéronautique : de l'évaluation de composants céramique de puissance à l'étude de nanoparticules hybrides céramique / polymère pour technologies enterrées / Towards reliability and miniaturization of capacitors for aeronautical applications : from the characterization and the reliability assessment of power ceramic components to the study of hybrid ceramic / polymer nanoparticles for embedded technologies

Benhadjala, Warda 16 July 2013 (has links)
L’amélioration des systèmes électroniques pour le déploiement de l'avion tout électrique dépend de la capacité des composants passifs, tels que les condensateurs, à réduire leur volume, leur masse et leur coût, et augmenter leurs performances et leur fiabilité, particulièrement dans l’environnement aéronautique. Dans ce contexte, cette thèse a eu pour objectif l’étude et le développement de nouvelles technologies de condensateurs pour des applications avioniques. Dans la première partie des travaux, nous abordons l’évaluation de condensateurs céramique de puissance. La technologie céramique constitue, en effet, l’une des rares solutions matures capables de répondre aux exigences des équipementiers. La caractérisation, l’analyse des mécanismes de défaillance, de leurs effets et de leur criticité (AMDEC) ainsi que l’étude de fiabilité et de robustesse de composants commerciaux présentant des architectures originales (condensateurs multi-chips) ont été réalisées. Ces résultats ont été complétés par une étude plus amont sur la caractérisation de céramiques frittées par frittage flash (SPS). Les permittivités colossales de ces matériaux permettraient d’accroitre la fiabilité et la miniaturisation des condensateurs tout en conservant de fortes valeurs de capacité et de tension nominale. La seconde partie, plus fondamentale, a été consacrée au développement de nanoparticules céramique/polymère coeur-écorce pour des applications de condensateurs enterrés, opérant aux radiofréquences. La synthèse et les caractérisations physico-chimiques des nanocomposites ainsi que les procédés de fabrication de condensateurs en couches épaisses sont, en premier lieu, décrits. Une méthode de caractérisation électrique large bande a été mise au point pour permettre l’analyse des propriétés diélectriques et des mécanismes de conduction des nanoparticules. Les performances des dispositifs ont été recherchées en fonction de la température et des procédés de mise en forme. En outre, la durabilité en température de ces derniers a été évaluée. / The improvement of electronic systems for the deployment of all-electric aircrafts depends on the ability of passive components, such as capacitors, to reduce their volume, weight and cost, and to increase their performance and reliability, particularly in the aeronautical environment. In this context, the objective of this thesis was to study and develop novel capacitor technologies for avionics. In the first part of this work, the evaluation of power ceramic capacitors has been discussed. Indeed, the ceramic technology appeared to be one of the few mature solutions meeting the requirements of OEMs. The characterization, the failure mode, effects and criticality analysis (FMECA) and reliability and robustness assessment of commercial components using original architectures (multi-chip capacitors) have been performed. These results have been completed by a more advanced study on the characterization of new ceramics sintered by spark plasma sintering (SPS). The colossal permittivity of these materials could allow to increase reliability and miniaturization of capacitors while maintaining high values of capacitance and voltage rating. The second part, more fundamental, is devoted to the development of core-shell ceramic/polymer nanoparticles for embedded capacitors operating at radiofrequencies. The synthesis and the physicochemical characterization of the nanocomposites as well as the manufacturing processes of the thick film capacitors are first described. A new broadband electrical characterization methodology has been developed to analyze the dielectric properties and the conduction mechanisms of the nanoparticles. The effects of the temperature and the manufacturing process on the device performance have been investigated. In addition, the durability was evaluated.

Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis (IUPUI) / This research proposes state-of-the-art multilevel converter topologies and their modulation strategies, the implementation of a conventional flying-capacitor converter topology up to four-level, and a new four-level flying-capacitor H-Bridge converter confi guration. The three phase version of this proposed four-level flying-capacitor H-Bridge converter is given as well in this study. The highlighted advantages of the proposed converter are as following: (1) the same blocking voltage for all switches employed in the con figuration, (2) no capacitor midpoint connection is needed, (3) reduced number of passive elements as compared to the conventional solution, (4) reduced total dc source value by comparison with the conventional topology. The proposed four-level capacitor-clamped H-Bridge converter can be utilized as a multilevel inverter application in an electri fied railway system, or in hybrid electric vehicles. In addition to the implementation of the proposed topology in this research, its experimental setup has been designed to validate the simulation results of the given converter topologies.
