Full textThis thesis explores the modelling and calculation of electromagnetic (EM) modes in waveguides with complex geometries, particularly in twisted electric cables in open environments. The aim is to develop numerical methods for solving Maxwell's equations in order to better understand the propagation of electromagnetic fields in realistic configurations. This study is motivated by the challenges of reducing electromagnetic radiation and improving cable performance in terms of field containment. We deal with two main configurations: straight waveguides and twisted waveguides. For straight waveguides, semi-analytical methods are used, particularly for coaxial cables, to test numerical models by comparison with precise solutions. We extend these methods to open waveguides, where absorbing boundary conditions (ABC) are introduced to model an infinite environment while limiting spurious reflections. In twisted cables, a helical geometry is exploited to reformulate the EM wave propagation equations in a suitable numerical framework, enabling low-frequency simulations to be obtained. Work on the construction of ABCs within this framework has also been initiated. The results that we obtain provide a better understanding of low-frequency electromagnetic phenomena and open up prospects for the design of more efficient devices and the study of electromagnetic systems in real heterogeneous environments

Full textThis PhD thesis is about Zero Group Velocity Lamb modes. For these peculiar modes, the group velocity (c 1 cohlk) vanishes and the phase velocity (coi k) remains finite, giving rise to narrow local resonances whose properties are very interesting. Attractive prospects in non destructive evaluation can be found because the frequency of those modes depends on the thickness and the mechanical properties of the plate. The behavior of the modes has primarily been explained. The experimental study have been lead using a non-contact optical set up including a pulsed laser source and an interferometric probe for the generation and the detection of those modes. The resonances have been used to determine the thickness and elastic constants of plates and of an anisotropic pipe. Then, the lateral resolution of the thickness measurement has been studied. The influence of the plate edge has been explored: an abrupt transition between the first ZGV resonance and the edge resonance has been observed at the distance of one thickness to the edge. The effect of the deposit of a thin layer on the ZGV resonances has then been numerically studied, which permitted to measure the thickness of a few hundreds nanometers thin gold layers deposited on a millimetric substrate. Finally, the function of the losses has been examined for two different cases, the intrinsic attenuation and the radiation of a fluid in contact with one face

Full textL'étude théorique utilise une méthode numérique basée sur les différences finies dans le domaine temporel pour résoudre les équations de Maxwell. L'influence des paramètres géométriques et de la nature du métal est étudiée de façon à obtenir une forte transmission dans le domaine du visible. Une cartographie du champ à l'intérieur des cavités et à la surface est calculée pour caractériser l'exaltation du champ et déterminer la nature du mode guidé.
Ce travail théorique s'appuie sur des caractérisations expérimentales effectuées en champ proche et en champ lointain. L'étude en champ proche a permis de cartographier le champ électrique au voisinage immédiat des ouvertures annulaires : la structure expérimentale met en évidence le rôle fondamental du mode TE11 dans l'exaltation de la transmission. Des spectres expérimentaux obtenus en champ lointain confirment, pour un film d'argent, une transmission d'environ 90 % en parfait accord avec les prévisions théoriques. Ce résultat constitue, à notre connaissance, une première mondiale.

Full textNanotechnologies have reached a maturity level that allows designing, with high confidence level, functionalized components for complex optical systems. In this context, this work addresses the issue of spectral filtering. I proposed a new design of filter based on the combination of a dielectric waveguide and on a subwavelength metallic grating. In a first time, I fabricated and characterized structures based on this design (with one dimensional 1D or two dimensional 2D geometries). I analyzed in detail the resonance mechanism and I studied the properties of these structures in terms of spectral tunability, polarization behavior, rejection efficiency and angular tolerance. Then, I proposed derivatives of these components with improved rejection efficiency and angular tolerance. Secondarly, I used various derivatives of these components to address angular filtering or multispectral imaging applications. For the latter, a 24-filter matrix has been optimized and integrated inside an infrared multispectral camera for CO2 sensing. Difficulties related to its real use conditions are highlighted and solutions are proposed to improve our results, already promising

Full textThis thesis focuses on the manipulation of the angular momentum of light at the nanoscale.The total angular momentum of light is composed of a spin component, connected to the polarization degree of freedom of light, and an orbital component, related to the spatial degrees of freedom of the light which are its propagation direction (local and global) and its intensity distribution. The spin-orbit coupling between these two contributions allows the control of the spatial degrees of freedom of light by a simple manipulation of its circular polarization state. In this thesis, we have studied and applied this coupling at the nanoscale anbd we have highlighted two new phenomenas. The first one takes part of this coupling to allows unidirectional excitation of plasmonic guided modes. A complete study (numerical, experimental and analytical) of this new phenomenon, based on a coupling between the spin of the incident photon and the extrinsic orbital momentum of the plasmonic guided modes within the curvature of a waveguide, is presented. The second study propose a way to benefit from the transfer of the angular momentum of light to the free electrons gas in a metal to generate and control the direction and the geometry of nanoscale current loops in metallic structures. this control would at optical frequencies.

Full textThe deposition of thin layers on substrates is more and more required in many applications. For example, to reach high technical performance, bumpers or other parts are nickeled to improve their impermeability and resistance. Another example in microelectronics is the realization of transistors found in LCDs where they are associated with each pixel. The use of these layer/substrate structures is growing, so the importance of having non-destructive techniques to monitor and characterize them is well understood. The point in using ultrasonic waves for non-destructive testing and evaluation of various materials and structures is well known. In this work, the aim was to use guided waves to monitor and to characterize plaque-like structures. The main advantage of using these modes lies in their ability to test very large areas and inaccessible structures. For the generation and detection of guided waves, the laser ultrasonics technique was preferred. It is a broadband and non contact method which doesn't imply the use of coupling medium and which can be adapted to complex geometries. To take full advantage of this technique, it has been combined with neural networks in order to solve the inverse problem posed by the propagation of guided waves. As a result, an original, e cient and polyvalent characterization method has been obtained, which allowed us to determine the geometric properties and / or the elastic parameters of di erent plate-like structures. Structures made of silicon have been studied with this method. Finite element simulations and studies concerning the in uence of defects, including adhesion, on the waves propagation are also presented

Full textIn a world suffering from increasing air pollution due to spiraling industrial activity, the detection of toxic gasses in the atmosphere is of paramount importance. The gas detector market is already well developed, and features a wide variety of detection technologies and techniques, each presenting its own set of intrinsic advantages and drawbacks. In this thesis, a combination of two or more technologies typically used independently has been studied in order to improve the global performances of gas detection systems. To this length, we have conceived and studied detector architectures based upon optical transduction systems, coupled with a material presenting a specific sensitivity to the target gas. More precisely, we have for the first time integrated a catalyst designed to accelerate the oxidation rate of chemical species (such as carbon monoxide or hydrogen) with an optical component capable of absorbing the heat generated by the oxidation reaction. The associated increase in temperature is translated to a variation of the optical intensity comprising the exit signal of the detector. The work carried out measuring the chromatic and temperature dispersion of the refractive index of the materials comprising the optical transduction component by guided mode techniques, ellipsometry and photometric techniques is presented. The optical probing of the electrical properties of semiconductor materials has also been studied, including the variations of these properties following interactions with oxidizing, reducing, or combustible gasses

Full textColloidal nanocrystals are nanoparticles grown in solution. When their dimension is reduced below the Bohr radius, quantum confinement appears: optical properties depend on the size of the crystal. These nanocrystals are currently used for their visible emission properties but can also be applied for infrared photodetection. Mercury and lead chalcogenide (and in particular HgTe and PbS) absorb in the infrared. The hopping transport associated with nanocrystal array induced the use of thin film. The absorption of such film remains low and so does their performance. My work consists in induce light-matter coupling within a nanocrystal array in order to boost the absorption and the responsivity. Using nanostructured electrodes, it is possible to induce guided mode resonances within nanocrystal thin films. The responsivity of such devices presents an increase of a factor 102 – 103 compared to a film on conventional electrodes due to an enlargement of the absorption and the photoconductive gain both. This method is versatile and can be used for different materials, at different wavelengths and for different device geometries. In a last part, I will show a device that improve transport properties in a nanocrystal film. This device has a detectivity of 1012 Jones at 2.5 µm, 1 V and 200 K, which is comparable with commercial detectors

Full textModeling is a complex process which is quite hard to do in a structured and controlled way. Many companies provide a set of guidelines for model structure, naming conventions and other modeling rules. Using meta-models to describe these guidelines makes it possible to check whether an UML model follows the guidelines or not. Providing this error checking of UML models is only one step on the way to making modeling software an even more valuable and powerful tool.
Moreover, by providing correction suggestions and automatic correction of these errors, we try to give the modeler as much help as possible in creating correct UML models. Since the area of model correction based on meta-models has not been researched earlier, we have taken an explorative approach.
The aim of the project is to create an extension of the program MetaModelAgent, by Objektfabriken, which is a meta-modeling plug-in for IBM Rational Software Architect. The thesis shows that error correction of UML models based on meta-models is a possible way to provide automatic checking of modeling guidelines. The developed prototype is able to give correction suggestions and automatic correction for many types of errors that can occur in a model.
The results imply that meta-model guided error correction techniques should be further researched and developed to enhance the functionality of existing modeling software.

Full textThis thesis presents the results of my PhD research on the design, fabrication, and first optical characterisation of GaInP-based slow-mode nanophotonic waveguides intended for the strong interaction of guided photons with the D₂ transition (780 nm) of ⁸⁷Rb atoms. The approach involves coupling atoms to the guided mode of a waveguide, a concept referred to as Waveguide Quantum Electrodynamics (Waveguide QED). The photonic crystal waveguides were designed with dispersion engineering to achieve slow mode with high group indices (∼30 - 50) around 780 nm. In the design, fabrication tolerance has been addressed by ensuring guided mode over a bandwidth of ∼10 nm. The waveguide is intended to be suspended, allowing free space around its vicinity to facilitate the convenient transport of atoms to its proximity and easy coupling of light from an external laser source. Details on an optimized and reproducible nanofabrication process have been reported. The encountered fabrication challenges and the corresponding solutions have been addressed, followed by an analysis of the fabrication results. A preliminary optical characterisation of the waveguides was conducted, in which the transmission spectra featuring the guided mode around 780nm were observed

Resumo: Desde as primeiras formulações em elementos finitos para o eletromagnetismo, os modos espúrios sempre foram um empecilho para a analise modal. Inicialmente, elementos nodais foram utilizados a fim de resolver a equação vetorial de onda no domínio da frequência. Naquele momento, os modos espúrios eram encontrados espalhados pelo espectro, o que dificultava a distinção entre soluções físicas e soluções espúrias. Anos mais tarde, o problema foi aparentemente resolvido pelo uso de elementos de aresta na equação vetorial de onda. Essa nova aproximação não eliminava por completo as soluções não físicas, apenas as confinava em torno do autovalor zero, o que não era problema na maioria das situações na analise modal. Recentemente, novas aplicações de elementos finitos no domínio do tempo resultaram em soluções instáveis, devido a presença dos modos espúrios em baixas frequências. Na década de 1990, Demkowicz[1], propôs uma formulação diferente em elementos finitos usando uma combinação da equação vetorial de onda com a condição do divergente de Gauss, que eliminou por completo os modos espúrios. O objetivo deste trabalho e analisar o impacto da condição de Gauss no FEM e entender como a mesma elimina os modos espúrios
Abstract: Since the earlier finite elements formulation for electromagnetics, spurious solutions have always plagued the modal analysis. Initially, nodal elements were employed to solve the vectorial wave equation in frequency domain. At that moment, the spurious modes could be found spread in frequency spectrum, and it was hard to distinguish between physical solutions and spurious ones. Some years later, this issue was apparently solved by using in the edge elements. This new approach does not completely eliminate non-physical solutions, but only confine them around to zero eigenvalue, which is not a problem in most of the situations in modal analysis. Recently, new applications of finite elements in time domain resulted to instable solution behavior, due to spurious modes at low frequencies. In the nineties, Demkowicz [1] proposed a different FEM formulation using a combination of vectorial wave equation and Gauss divergent equation, which definitely eliminates the spurious modes. The goal of this work is to analyze the impact of the Gauss condition in FEM and understand how it can eliminate spurious modes

Full textIn this thesis, we investigate the optical properties of a six-layer stack (air-Au-SiO₂-Au-Ti-glass). The interfaces are flat and the modeling is performed using elementary Fresnel expressions at the interface and plane wave propagation in the layers. Two models are used where the sample is: i) excited by a source at infinity (excitation by source at infinity (ESI)); ii) excited by a local source. In the experiments we are modeling this source consists of the inelastic tunneling electrons from a scanning tunneling microscope (STM). In our modeling this source is replaced by a vertical oscillating dipole. Using these two models one calculates the reflected (reflectance) and the transmitted (transmittance) flux from a source at infinity and the transmitted flux of a local source. Surface plasmon polariton (SPP) and wave guide (WG) modes may be identified in the reflectance, transmittance and transmitted flux. In a particular wavelength domain the SPP and WG repel each other giving rise to an avoided crossing. The choice of the gold (Au) and silica (SiO₂) thicknesses of the six-layer stack is guided by two requirements: high amplitude of the observable and wide wavelength dependence of the in-plane wave vector. We also study the influence of the gold and silica thicknesses on the observables. We find that the observables are significant for dAu[10, 90 nm] for the three and dAu[10, 50 nm] for six layer stacks and this predictive study guided the choice of the experimental sample thicknesses. The wave guide mode appears for dSiO₂ >190 nm. The electric field as a function of the penetration coordinate z is calculated in order to characterize the location of the field in the stack and to assign the nature of the modes. We observe that for the SPP the electric field is confined at the Au-air interface whereas, the electric fields corresponding to the WG mode are confined inside SiO₂ layer. Our calculations presented in this work are in good agreement with the experimental measurements performed in our group

Full textLe, Guilly Marie. "Guided data selection for predictive models." Thesis, Lyon, 2020. http://www.theses.fr/2020LYSEI072.
Full textDatabases and machine learning (ML) have historically evolved as two separate domains: while databases are used to store and query the data, ML is devoted to predictive models inference, clustering, etc. Despite its apparent simplicity, the “data preparation” step of ML applications turns out to be the most time-consuming step in practice. Interestingly this step encompasses the bridge between databases and ML. In this setting, we raise and address three main problems related to data selection for building predictive models. First, the database usually contains more than the data of interest: how to separate the data that the analyst wants from the one she does not want? We propose to see this problem as imbalanced classification between the tuples of interest and the rest of the database. We develop an undersampling method based on the functional dependencies of the database. Second, we discuss the writing of the query returning the tuples of interest. We propose a SQL query completion solution based on data semantics, that starts from a very general query, and helps an analyst to refine it until she selects her data of interest. This process aims at helping the analyst to design the query that will eventually select the data she requires. Third, assuming the data has successfully been extracted from the database, the next natural question follows: is the selected data suited to answer the considered ML problem? Since getting a predictive model from the features to the class to predict amounts to providing a function, we point out that it makes sense to first assess the existence of that function in the data. This existence can be studied through the prism of functional dependencies, and we show how they can be used to understand a model’s limitation, and to refine the initial data selection if necessary

Full textVarious elements of civil engineering structures are elongated and partially embedded in a solid medium. Guided waves can be used for the nondestructive evaluation (NDE) of such elements. The latteris therefore considered as an open waveguide, in which most of waves are attenuated by leakage losses into the surrounding medium. Furthermore, the problem is difficult to solve numerically because of its unboundedness. In aprevious thesis, it has been shown that the semi-analytical finite-element method (SAFE) and perfectly matched layers(PML) can be coupled for the numerical computation of modes. It yields three types of modes: trapped modes,leaky modes and PML modes. Only trapped and leaky modes are useful for the post-processing of dispersion curves. PML modes are non-intrinsic to the physics. The major aim of this thesis is to obtain the propagated and diffracted fields, based on modal superpositions on the numerical modes. First, we show that the three types of modes belong to the modal basis. To guarantee the uniqueness of the solutions an orthogonality relationship is derived on the section including the PML. The forced response can then be obtained very efficiently with a modal expansion at any point of the waveguide. Modal expansions are also used to build transparent boundaries at the cross-sections of a small finite-element domain enclosing a defect, thereby yielding the diffracted field. Throughout this work, we study whether solutions can be obtained with modal expansions on leaky modes only, which enables to reduce the computational cost. Besides, solutions are obtained at high frequencies (which are of interest for NDE) and in tridimensional waveguides, which demonstrates the generality of the methods. The second objective of this thesis is to propose an imaging method to locate defects. The topological imaging method is applied to a waveguide configuration. The general theoretical framework is recalled, based on constrained optimization theory. The image can be quickly computed thanks to the modal formalism. The case of a damaged waveguide is then simulated to assess the influence on image quality of the emitted field characteristics (monomodal, dispersive or multimodal)and of the measurement configuration

Full textThis work deals with the mathematical and numerical analysis of propagation characteristics of guided modes of several dielectric structures: Optical fibers, half couplers and optical couplers. From the mathematical view-point we first study a scalar equation which modelize the propagation under the assumptions of weak guidance. Then we analyse the complete system of the Maxwell equations. These studies are based on the spectral theory of self-adjoint operators. We etablish , by the Max-Min principle, the dispersion relation between the frequency and the propagation constant. Then we give a detailed description of the dispersion curves: framing, dependance with respect to the index profile, asymptotic behaviour, cut-off. . . From the numerical point of view, we propose an original method, based on integral representation, to calculate the propagation constants and the cut-off frequencies of guided modes of step-index profile fibers with arbitrarily shaped cross sections. The case of an optical couplers is also treated by this method with an appropriate adaptation. We end this work by making various numerical simulations in order to validate our approximation method. The conclusion is that our method is well adapted to the computation of the optical structures presented above: good accuracy and reasonnable cost

Full textA CRIGF (Cavity Resonator Integrated Grating Filter) is a nanophotonic spectral filter with a narrow bandwidth (less than a nanometer) using a relatively focused beam. This structure, introduced recently (2010), is composed of a guided mode resonance grating filter (or resonant grating, or coupler grating) inserted between two Bragg gratings. Guided mode resonance gratings are known to exhibit very narrow peaks in their reflection spectrum (or transmission), due to the excitation of one guided mode of the structure via one diffraction order. This resonance phenomenon corresponds to an anomaly of Wood. But their major limitation remains their very low angular tolerance, and the CRIGF allows to overpass this problem.In literature, the numerical modeling of CRIGF was done only by FDTD with an important calculations time. We have used RCWA to model numerically the CRIGF by bringing a possibility of research of the eigen-modes. We have mainly shown thanks to calculations the extraordinary angular behavior of the CRIGF is very different from that of infinite gratings. We have proved thanks to the coupled modes theory extended to four modes that this large angular tolerance is due to an additional coupling that did not occur in infinite gratings.With an approach based on the Fabry-Perot cavity, we confirmed that the CRIGF behaves as a lossy Fabry-Perot cavity, which allowed us to define simple design rules such as the control of the spectral width and tuning the centering wavelength

Full textIn this work the four Plasmon modes are analyzed, the symmetrical (Sb) and asymmetrical bounded (ab); the core (ln) and covering leaky modes (lc), that propagate in weakly guided optical fibers with a metallic film around that. In the metallic film a layer extra dielectric is deposited and above this, another layer denominated covering. The analysis will be developed for metallic films of the Silver, Palladium and Gold. This structure is very useful to making optical sensors.

Full textSpectral analysis of an infrared scene allows for a better identification of its components. Nanotechnologies offer new opportunities to achieve spectral filtering thanks to optical resonances. In this thesis, I use sub-wavelength gratings to achieve spectral filtering on areas as small as a pixel. I focused on the study of guided-mode resonance filters, made of a coupling grating and a thin dielectric layer acting as a waveguide. This structure typically needs large surfaces to filter infrared light. However, I proposed two possible modifications of this structure: either using a resonant cavity or using metallic gratings.Numerical analysis of the optical response of structures with a metallic grating showed that the spatial extension of the electromagnetic field is limited at the resonant wavelength. Thanks to this short extension, I is possible to achieve filtering with only 30 µm-long guided-mode resonance filters. I also fabricated and characterized those pixel-sized filters.Finally, I studied mosaics of small guided-mode resonance filters. I showed that the dimensions, the resonant transmissions and the angular acceptance of those mosaics are compatible with using them inside multi-spectral cameras. I also showed a sample architecture for an infrared multispectral-camera using a mosaics of guided-mode resonance filters
