The thesis concerns the study, modeling and development of infrared detectors based on antennas and MIM (Metal-Insulator-Metal) nanodiodes in the range 8-12 µm. These devices will operate at room temperature and will be manufactured in the CEA-LETI clean room. The student began his thesis work with a theoretical study of the behavior of dielectric and […] >>

Neuromorphic networks for signal and information processing have acquired recently a renewed interest considering the more and more complex tasks that have to be solved automatically in current applications: speech recognition, dynamic image correlation, rapid decision processing integrating a plurality of information sources, behavior optimization, etc… Several types of neuromorphic networks do exist and, among […] >>

The most innovative communication systems for beyond 5G and future 6G applications have to face a number of challenges related to the trade-offs between link range, power consumption and data-rate. A growing interest is put on radio frequency circuits operating at mmW and sub-THz bands because at those frequencies there are large portions of available […] >>

Since 2018 and the announcement of the Spectre and Meltdow vulnerabilities, the hard-won performance gains of desktop and server processors over the past few decades have been called into question. These vulnerabilities effectively exploit the speculative and out of order execution found in all modern processors to gain in the number of instructions performed per […] >>

The recent improvements of quantum bits (qubit) based on electron spins pave the way towards their massive integration into the possible quantum processor of the future quantum computer. The individual biasing, manipulation and reading of particular qubits of the matrix is a key point that forges strong links between physicists and electronics engineers. More specifically, […] >>
