Afin d'optimiser l'utilisation des micropoutres en tant que capteurs chimiques, de nouvelles couches sensibles à base de matériaux microporeux ont été testées pour la détection d'humidité, de toluène et d'éthanol. Des essais sans couches sensibles ont aussi été effectués et des modèles simples ont été mis au point afin de prédire la réponse des micropoutres lors d'un changement d'environnement. Ces études ont donc permis la mise en oeuvre des micropoutres selon deux principes de détections différents: l'un reposant sur la variation de masse du capteur à base de micropoutre lors de l'absorption de composé par une couche sensible; l'autre reposant sur la détection de changements de propriétés physiques du fluide environnant. / In order to optimize the use of microcantilever in the way of chemical sensing, microporous sensitive coatings have been tried to detect ethanol, toluene and humidity. The use of microcantilever without sensitive coating have been performed and simple models has been made and permit to predict the response of microcantilever in different environments. These studies rely on the use of microcantilever within two different detection mode: the detection of mass variation of the sensor because of the sorption of species in sensitive coating; and the detection of the change of physical properties of the fluid.

Non-resonant microwave absorption (NRMA) in superconducting materials has become a new experimental technique to probe and understand superconducting materials. For example cuprate superconductors are well studied with this technique. At the same time the technique is also evolving. This technique (NRMA) has been used to study magnetic shielding effects/boundary current in Ba0.34K0.64Fe2As2 (BaK122) single crystals of iron pnictides superconducting sample measured at 9.4 GHz below TC (4.2K-32K). It has been observed that a small modulation field used in NRMA experiment yield the boundary current response. We have established that the boundary current response depends on both modulation amplitude and the temperature. At high modulation field amplitudes and temperatures close to Tc the boundary current response gets suppressed and flux modulated response dominates. At low temperatures far away from Tc, only the boundary current response dominates. / Physics / M. Sc. (Physics)

Les travaux présentés dans cette thèse s’inscrivent dans le cadre général de la description de l’effet tunnel dans la limite semi classique h → 0. Nous présentons une nouvelle méthode de calcul direct de la largeur des doublets tunnel. L’expression obtenue est basée sur l’utilisation de traces d’opérateurs quantiques, dont l’opérateur d’évolution Û (T)prolongé analytiquement à l’aide d’un temps complexe T. L’étape suivante consiste en un développement semi classique de ces traces. Nous nous plaçons dans le cadre des systèmes intégrables unidimensionnels afin d’insister sur l’importance d’un temps complexe et on montre que le choix d’un chemin du temps [t] adapté, lors du calcul semi classique des traces, fournit un critère de sélection efficace des trajectoires complexes dominantes. Nous verrons que cette approche retrouve la technique des instantons dans la limite d’un temps purement imaginaire et qu’elle permet d’inclure les descriptions, inaccessibles par une rotation de Wick complète, de l’effet tunnel dynamique et résonant. Nous montrons également comment adapter cette méthode au taux de transmission tunnel d’un état localisé dans un minimum local vers un continuum d’états. Enfin, nous proposerons, en guise de perspectives,d’étudier l’effet tunnel résonant à partir de modèles intégrables présentant des îlots stables entourés de chaînes de tores pour lesquels nous tenterons d’adapter la théorie de l’effet tunnel assisté par les résonances. / The present work is developed within the general framework of the description of the tunneling effect in the semiclassical limit h → 0. We introduce a new method for the direct computation of the tunneling splittings. We get a trace formula involving the evolution operator continued in the complex plane using a complex time T. The next step is to obtain semi classical expansion of these traces. Within the framework of one dimensionnalintegrable systems, we show the key role of a complex time. When performing semiclassical calculations, an appropriate complex-time paths provide an efficient criterion in order toselect the dominant complex trajectories involved in the traces. We will show that our approach includes instanton techniques in the limit of a purely imaginary time and describes dynamical tunneling and resonant tunneling for which a complete Wick is not sufficient.We will show also how our method works for the decay rates. Finally, as a perspective,we will study resonant tunneling from integrable models which exhibit prominent islands surrounded by chains of tori. From these models, we will try to apply the theory of resonant assisted tunneling to integrable systems.

Le Chauffage Cyclotron Ionique (ICRH) par des ondes dans la gamme 30-80MHz est couramment utilisé dans les plasmas de fusion magnétique. Excitées par par des réseaux phasés de rubans de courant à la périphérie du plasma, ces ondes existent sous deux polarisations. L’onde rapide traverse le bord ténu du plasma par effet tunnel puis se propage à son centre où elle est absorbée. L’onde lente, émise de façon parasite, existe seulement à proximité des antennes. Quelle puissance peut être couplée au centre avec 1A de courant sur les rubans? Comment les champs radiofréquence (RF) proches et lointains émis interagissent-ils avec le plasma de bord par rectification de gaine RF à l’interface plasma-paroi? Pour répondre simultanément à ces deux questions, en géométrie réaliste sur l’échelle spatiale des antennes ICRH, cette thèse a amélioré et testé le code numérique SSWICH (Self-consitent Sheaths and Waves for ICH). SSWICH couple de manière auto-cohérente la propagation des ondes RF et la polarisation continue (DC) du plasma via des conditions aux limites non-linéaires de type gaine (SBC) appliquées à l’interface plasma / paroi. La nouvelle version SSWICH-FW est pleine onde et a été développée en deux dimensions (toroïdale/radiale). De nouvelles SBCs couplant les deux polarisations d’ondes ont été obtenues et mises en œuvre le long de parois courbes inclinées par rapport au champ magnétique de confinement. Avec ce nouvel outil en l'absence de SBCs, nous avons étudié l'impact d'une densité décroissant continûment à l'intérieur de la boîte d'antenne en traversant la résonance hybride basse (LH). Dans les limites mémoire de notre poste de travail, les champs RF au-dessous de la résonance LH ont changé avec la taille de maille. Par contre spectre de puissance couplée n’a que très peu évolué, et n’était que faiblement influencé par la densité à l'intérieur de l'antenne. En présence de SBCs, les simulations SSWICH-FW ont identifié le rôle de l'onde rapide sur l’excitation de gaines RF et reproduit certaines observations expérimentales clés. SSWICH-FW a finalement été adapté pour réaliser les premières simulations 2D électromagnétiques et de gaine-RF de la machine plasma cylindrique magnétisée ALINE / Ion Cyclotron Resonant Heating (ICRH) by waves in 30-80MHz range is currently used in magnetic fusion plasmas. Excited by phased arrays of current straps at the plasma periphery, these waves exist under two polarizations. The Fast Wave tunnels through the tenuous plasma edge and propagates to its center where it is absorbed. The parasitically emitted Slow Wave only exists close to the launchers. How much power can be coupled to the center with 1A current on the straps? How do the emitted radiofrequency (RF) near and far fields interact parasitically with the edge plasma via RF sheath rectification at plasma-wall interfaces? To address these two issues simultaneously, in realistic geometry over the size of ICRH antennas, this thesis upgraded and tested the Self-consistent Sheaths and Waves for ICH (SSWICH) code. SSWICH couples self-consistently RF wave propagation and Direct Current (DC) plasma biasing via non-linear RF and DC sheath boundary conditions (SBCs) at plasma/wall interfaces. Its upgrade is full wave and was implemented in two dimensions (toroidal/radial). New SBCs coupling the two polarizations were derived and implemented along shaped walls tilted with respect to the confinement magnetic field. Using this new tool in the absence of SBCs, we studied the impact of a density decaying continuously inside the antenna box and across the Lower Hybrid (LH) resonance. Up to the memory limits of our workstation, the RF fields below the LH resonance changed with the grid size. However the coupled power spectrum hardly evolved and was only weakly affected by the density inside the box. In presence of SBCs, SSWICH-FW simulations have identified the role of the fast wave on RF sheath excitation and reproduced some key experimental observations. SSWICH-FW was finally adapted to conduct the first electromagnetic and RF-sheath 2D simulations of the cylindrical magnetized plasma device ALINE

Sample preparation for structural analysis and dielectric, had the addition of vanadium pentóxido (V2O5) to the phase CaBi4Ti4O15 calcined in ratios of 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0 and 5.0% by mass. To obtain optical properties of the ceramic matrix doped with rare earth ions erbiumIII (Er2O3) and III ytterbium oxide (Yb2O3). The study of the structure and composition of the samples was done by X-ray diffraction and confirmation was made by single stage rietveld refinement. The vibrational characteristics was obtained by Raman spectroscopy (RS). The morphology study off or analysis of grain and grain boundary, was performed by scanning electron microscopy. The dielectric characterization of radio frequency spectroscopy was performed in impedance which occurred two conductivity mechanisms for all samples, one at low frequency and the on the rat high frequency. Models of dielectric relaxation approach the Cole-Cole type model. Measures in the microwave range were obtained using the hakki-coleman method and monopole, which gave a temperature coefficient of resonant frequency (f) close to zero with the addition of V2O5. The dielectric permittivity measurements in radiofrequency and microwave, performe dat room temperature, had a high constant value (εr≈150) with the addition of 1%V2O5, and a value of relatively low loss tangent for family aurivillus (tan[δ]≈10-2) at 2 GHz. A numerical simulation was performed with each sample verifying approach with the experimental data. In rare earth doped samples was checked energy up-conversion phenomenon with the presence of intense bands samples of visible light emission in the green region and a less intense bands in thered region.The investigated material has potential for application in volatile memories, capacitive filters and optical components such as sensors, solar cells and LEDs. / Uma forte demanda por materiais mais compactados, de baixo custo e de fácil fabricação são necessários para diversas aplicações tecnológicas, neste sentido diversos materiais cerâmicos são candidatos por suas propriedades dielétricas e ópticas. Neste presente trabalho, foram investigadas as propriedades estruturais, dielétricas e ópticas da fase ortorrômbica da matriz cerâmica ferroelétrica CaBi4Ti4O15, uma pseudo-perosviskita de estrutura de camada de bismuto (BLSFs) do grupo espacial A21am da família aurivillius, preparada pelo método do estado sólido e sinterizada em baixas temperaturas. A preparação das amostras para análise estrutural e dielétrica, tiveram a adição de pentóxido de vanádio (V2O5) à fase CaBi4Ti4O15 calcinada, em proporções de 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0 e 5.0 % em massa. Para obtenção das propriedades ópticas, a matriz cerâmica pura foi dopada com os íons terras raras érbio III (Er2O3) e óxido de itérbio III (Yb2O3). O estudo da estrutura e composição das amostras foi feito através de difração de raios-X e a confirmação da fase única foi feita pelo Refinamento Rietveld. A caracterização vibracional foi obtida através da Espectroscopia Raman (SR). O estudo da morfologia, para análise de grão e contorno de grão, foi realizado através de Microscopia Eletrônica de Varredura. A caracterização dielétrica em radio freqüência foi realizada por Espectroscopia em Impedância a qual se verificou dois mecanismos de condutividade para todas as amostras analisadas, um em baixa freqüência e outro em alta freqüência. Os modelos de relaxação dielétrica se aproximam do modelo do tipo Cole-Cole. As medidas na faixa de microondas foram obtidas utilizando-se o método hakki-coleman e monopolo, chegou-se a um coeficiente de temperatura da frequência de ressonância (tAU f) próximo de zero com adição de V2O5. As medidas de permissividade dielétrica em radiofreqüência e microondas, realizadas em temperatura ambiente, tiveram um alto valor constante (εr ≈ 150) com a adição de 1% de V2O5, e um valor da tangente de perda relativamente baixa em relação à família de Aurivillus (tan[δ] ≈10-2 ) em 2 GHz.. Uma simulação numérica foi realizada com cada amostra verificando-se aproximação com os dados experimentais. Nas amostras dopadas com terras raras foi verificado o fenômeno de conversão ascendente de energia com a presença de bandas intensas amostras de emissão de luz visível na região do verde e de bandas de menor intensidade na região do vermelho. O Material investigado tem potencial para aplicação em memórias voláteis, filtros capacitivos e componentes ópticos, como sensores, células fotoelétricas e leds.

L’étude présentée est le fruit d’une collaboration entre le groupe de recherche de l'Electrodynamique du INP-ENSEEIHT (Toulouse), LAPLACE Laboratoire de Recherche et l'École Polytechnique de Gdańsk, le Département Génie Electrique et Automatique. L’objectif de cet projet est la conception d’un moteur piézoélectrique multicellulaire composé de plusieurs stators de moteurs à rotation de mode (3 au minimum) permettant de garantir des fréquences de résonance élevées ainsi qu’une répartition des efforts de frottement plus favorables. Le dimensionnement du moteur s’appuiera sur un cahier des charges du domaine de l’automobile, en visant une structure la plus simple possible à mettre en oeuvre. Outre un travail important concernant la conception, il faudra procéder à sa caractérisation après la réalisation du prototype. La dernière étape concernera la définition des stratégies d’alimentation et de commande d’une telle structure qui posera inévitablement le problème de l’autoadaptativité des cellules résonantes à une même fréquence de résonance. Le moteur multicellular (MPM) proposé sera une combinaison du moteur à onde progressive annulaire (Shinsei) et moteur à rotation de mode. Il combine les avantages des deux moteurs par une combinaison de trois cellules élémentaires de moteurs à rotation de mode. La combinaison de ces deux concepts, accroît le nombre de surface de contact. Les dimensions préliminaires et les paramètres de la MPM prototype ont été vérifiés en utilisant son modèle développé analytique (géométrique) et méthodes numériques (MÉF). Le modèle analytique de la MPM a été développé sur la base de circuit équivalent de la Langevin actuateur. La model analytique a été fait dans Matlab. Les principaux paramètres calculés sont: fréquence de résonance 26.2 kHz, couple bloque 0.4 Nm et la vitesse 40 tr/mn. En utilisant le modèle MÉF les fréquences de résonance et les valeurs du stress de la MPM prototype ont été déterminés. . Des simulations ont été effectuées pour sélectionner la fréquence de résonance et la forme pour concevoir le contre mass. Les fréquences de résonances résultantes sont 25.6 kHz et simulations du stress moins de 9 N/mm2. Comparaison des résultats fréquence de résonance calcule à modèle analytique (26.2 kHz) et le modèle FEM (25.6 kHz) du une prototype MPM, il convient de noter, que de modèle analytique est fortement modèle précis. Enfin, la réalisation des pièces par imprimante 3D a été décidée (contre-mass et carter) et les matériaux: aluminium et nylatron. Les autres parties ont été réalisés sur une machine à commande numérique à l'aide de l'acier. Les mesures de la MPM prototype ont été effectuées. L'étape suivante a consisté à tester le moteur et vérifier la fréquence de résonance, et la mesure de déplacement, résonances fréquences résultantes sont 22 kHz et déplacement 1.1 μm sur rotor/stator point du contact. Finalement, les paramètres mécaniques ont été mesurés. Les meilleurs paramètres mécaniques ont été obtenus sur dSpace support de laboratoire: vitesse - 46-48 tr/mn, et le couple bloqué – 0.4 Nm. Les résultats sont satisfaisants et donnent un bon point de départ pour les futurs travaux. / The research works in the frame of the dissertation have been carried out with the cooperation between the University INP - ENSEEIHT - LAPLACE (Laboratory on Plasma and Conversion of Energy), Toulouse, France, and the Gdańsk University of Technology, Faculty of Electrical and Control Engineering, Research Unit Power Electronics and Electrical Machines, Gdańsk, Poland. The main scope of the dissertation was following: development a novel concept, implementation and analysis of the multicell piezoelectric motor (MPM) for the control of the car seat position. The new concept of the MPM is based on a combined topology using the working principles of the traveling wave motor/actuator (known as the Shinsei motor), and the electromechanical structure of the rotating-mode motor/actuator. The electromechanical structure of each rotating-mode motor has been considered as an independent one – referred to as a "single cell". The application of the novel MPM for the control of the car seat position will reduce the number of gears due to its direct coupling with the driving/movement shaft of the seat positioning system. The achieved effects of a such integrated structure will be following: a higher efficiency, a lower noise of performance, a low cost of manufacturing, and in general a lower pollution of the environment. The preliminary dimensions and parameters of the prototype MPM have been verified using its developed analytical (geometrical) model and numerical methods (FEM). The prototype MPM has been manufactured. Finally, the laboratory measurements of the MPM prototype has been carried out.

Dans ce travail de thèse nous nous sommes intéressés principalement à la récupération de l'énergie mécanique et plus particulièrement l'énergie vibratoire. Cette technologie repose sur l'utilisation des transducteurs résonants, ces dispositifs permettent d'amplifier l'amplitude de vibration et donc de stocker d'avantage d'énergie mécanique dans le convertisseur à la résonance. La quantité de l'énergie en sortie du convertisseur chute lorsque la fréquence de vibration n'est plus égale à la fréquence de résonance, il est donc nécessaire d'assurer un asservissement de la fréquence de résonance de la structure de récupération d'énergie vibratoire sur la fréquence de vibration, si possible sur tout le spectre fréquentiel que couvre la source de vibration. L'objectif de la thèse est de proposer des solutions, à basse consommation, permettant d'assurer un ajustement dynamique en temps réel de la fréquence de résonance en fonction de la fréquence de vibration. Les travaux de cette thèse s'articulent autour de trois solutions : 1) Ajustement de la fréquence de résonance par application d'un champ électrique dans un matériau piézoélectrique 2) Ajustement de la fréquence de résonance par adaptation de la charge électrique d'un matériau piézoélectrique 3) Amplification du mouvement vibratoire par technique de rebond Une modélisation et optimisation à la fois de la plage de fréquence de fonctionnement et de la conversion mécano-électrique ont été réalisées. Trois structures ont été développées et testées et permettent de valider chacune des trois approches. Enfin, une électronique très basse consommation a été mise au point pour asservir en temps réel la fréquence de résonance sur la fréquence de la source de vibration et optimiser le taux d'énergie électrique extraite du système (pour maintenir un facteur de qualité de la structure optimum). / The work of this thesis is focused on the mechanical energy harvesting. This technology is generally based on the use of resonant transducers. Such systems work efficiently when their resonant frequency is equal to the vibration one. Otherwise, the output power from the harvester drops dramatically. Hence, it's necessary to ensure a continuous control of the resonant frequency of the harvester in order to avoid a possible shift between the resonant frequency and the vibration one, and doing this over the frequency spectrum covered by the vibration source. The main goal of this thesis is to develop new efficient solutions able to control in real time and tune the resonant frequency, these solutions should be low power consumption. During this thesis, three solutions have been developed: 1) adjustement of the resonant frequency by applying an electric field on the piezoelectric material; 2) adjustement of the resonant by adapting the electrical load; 3) the amplification of the structure relative displacement using a rebound technique. Modelling and optimization of both the frequency adjustment techniques and the mechanical-to-electrical conversion were performed. Three structures have been developed, tested and used to validate the three approaches. Finally, a very low power consumption electronic has been developed for a real time control of the resonant frequency, by regarding the vibration frequency, and also to optimize the extracted electrical energy from the harvester by maintaining an optimum quality factor.

Devido à escassez de dados espectroscópicos sobre as interações de aminas aromáticas com SO2 e devido também à importância que complexos de transferência de carga assumem numa série de processos, inclusive biológicos, realizou-se um estudo objetivando a caracterização dessa interação através de várias técnicas espectroscópicas, como a espectroscopia Raman, no Infravermelho, no visível-ultravioleta e de Ressonância Magnética Nuclear. A partir dos dados obtidos nesses estudos concluímos que ocorre transferência de carga da amina para o SO2 ; essa transferência ocorre a partir do orbital ocupado de maior energia da amina , localizado principalmente no átomo de nitrogênio, para o orbital vago de mais baixa -energia do SO2 (π * ) localizado no a-tomo de enxofre. Os espectros vibracionais mostram que não é possível correlacionar as frequências de estiramento do SO2 complexado com o pKb (ou potencial de ionização) da base e sugerem que fatores estéricos podem ser importantes, influenciando o recobrimento dos orbitais do doador e do aceptor. No caso particular da ANI.SO2 , alterações na região de estiramento N-H do espectro no infravermelho , indicam que muito provavelmente ocorre a formação de ligações de hidrogênio entre a amina e o SO2 além da interação através do átomo de nitrogênio. ° comportamento termocrômico dos complexos foi investigado através de espectroscopia Raman à baixa temperatura. As informações preliminares obtidas sugerem que o desaparecimento da côr é devido a uma depopulação dos estados vibracionais excitados, a partir dos quais se efetuam as transições eletrônicas com fatores de Franck-Condon muito favoráveis / The shortage of spectroscopic data on the interactions between amines and SO2, together with the relevance that molecular complexes have in several process, including biological ones, stimulated us to study these systems by Raman, Infrared, Visible-Ultra violet and NMR spectroscopic techniques. From the data obtained, it\'s possible to conclude that there is charge transfer from the HOMO of the amines, which is localized mainly at the nitrogen atom, to the LUMO of SO2, localized at the sulfur atom. The vibrational spectra show that it is impossible to correlate any of the SO2 vibrational bands to the pKb of the donor and suggest that steric hindrance may play an important role in such interations, affecting the overlap of donor and aceptor orbitals; in the case of ANI.SO2 , the band shape in the N-H stretching region led us to conclude that hidrogen bonding between the amine and SO2 occurs, together with the specific interation through the nitrogen atom. The complexes show Pré-Resonance Raman Effect and from its study one concludes that SO2 belongs to the chromophoric group. The thermochromism that the complexes present was investigated by Raman Spectroscopy at low temperature. The informations obtained strongly suggest that the vanishing of its colour may be atributed to a depopulation of an vibrational excited state from which the charge transfer eletronic transition can occur with apreciable Franck-Condon factors.

Tipicamente as máquinas industriais para a aplicação em questão, apresentam três estágios; a fonte (geração de energia eletromagnética), blindagem e filtragem (através de uma cavidade), e alimentação da carga. Por se tratar de um equipamento de alta potência (dezenas de KVs), a fonte consiste num oscilador à válvula, na faixa 20-50 MHz. A fonte excita uma cavidade que ressoa e funciona como um armazenador dessa radiação eletromagnética e um filtro de freqüência. Finalmente a energia da cavidade é extraída através de dispositivo análogo a uma linha de transmissão e colocado em contato com a carga, isto é, o material a ser soldado. Os modelos propostos fazem uso de circuitos equivalentes eficientes obtidos para as válvulas e as cavidades eletromagnéticas utilizadas, e foram validados através de testes experimentais minuciosos aplicados a uma máquina de fabricação nacional, líder de vendas no mercado latino-americano. / Abstract: This work is related to the study of electromagnetic weld industrial machines operating in radio frequency band aiming robust models based on concentrated parameters circuits. Typically, those machines have three steps: the power source (electromagnetic energy generation), shielding and filtering (through cavity) and load power supply. Since the equipment demands high power (dozen of KVs), the power source consists of a valve oscillator of 20-50MHz bandwidth. The power source excites a cavity that resonants and works like a storing of electromagnetic radiation and a frequency filter. Finally, the cavity energy is extracted through a device that works like a transmission line and sent to the load, that means, the material to be welded. The proposed models use efficient equivalent circuits found for the machine valves and cavities, and they were validated through detailed experiments on a machine produced for a Brazilian company, leader of the Latin American market. / Mestrado / Telecomunicações e Telemática / Mestre em Engenharia Elétrica
