▼ The Earth's polar ionosphere is a highly dynamic region of the upper atmosphere, and acts as the closure of the greater magnetospheric current system. This region plays host to many electrodynamic effects that impact terrestrial systems, such as power grids, railroads, and pipelines. These effects are fundamentally related to the currents, electric fields, and conductivity present in the polar ionosphere. Understanding and predicting the electrodynamics of this region is vital to being able to determine the physical impacts on terrestrial systems and provide predictions to government and commercial entities. Empirical models play a key role in the research and forecasting of the solar wind and interplanetary magnetic field's impact on the polar ionosphere, and is an active area of development and research. Recent interest in polar ionospheric conductivity has led to a community-wide campaign to develop our understanding of this portion of the electrodynamic system. Characterizing the interactions between the solar wind and the polar ionosphere is a difficult task, as the region of interest is highly data starved in many respects. In particular, satellite based data products are scarce due to being costly and logistically difficult. Recent advancements in data sources (such as the Swarm and CHAMP satellite missions) as well as continued research into the physical relationships between solar wind and interplanetary magnetic field drivers have provided the opportunity to develop new, novel tools to study this region of interest. In this dissertation, two polar ionosphere models are described in Chapters 3 and 4, along with the original research that their construction has produced in Chapter 1. These two models are combined to provide a foundation for future research in this area, which is described in Chapter 5. Advisors/Committee Members: Weimer, Daniel R.

▼ In our research on exploring the effects of 5 ns, high intensity electric pulses on neurosecretory adrenal chromaffin cells, cell modeling has played an important role in understanding and explaining the experimental results. Externally applied nanosecond-duration electric pulses (NEPs) can affect cells by creating nanopores in the cell and intracellular organelle membranes, making these membranes permeable to certain ions. A chromaffin cell contains, at a minimum, 7000 secretory granules plus other organelles such as mitochondria and the endoplasmic reticulum. In all the biological cell models constructed in the literature, there is no evidence of asymmetrical Transmembrane Potential (TMP) distribution in the intracellular membranes. However, these models do not include a realistic number of intracellular organelles. The goal of this research was to construct a more realistic cell model that incorporates a large number of secretory granules in the cytosol. To this end, a beta-version of the real-valued unstructured mesh Finite Element Method (FEM) electro-quasi-static module in Sim4life (SPEAG, Switzerland) has been used to model a chromaffin cell in which 1000 secretory granules are included in the cytosol. The model is, we believe, the most detailed geometrical cell model developed. It includes a spherical chromaffin cell (radius 8 μ m), nucleus (radius 2.5 mu m) located off-center, 500 granules (radius 200 nm) randomly located within a distance of 2 μ m from the surface of the nucleus, and additional 500 granules randomly located in the remaining region of the cytosol. Cell and granule membrane thickness was set to 5 nm and nuclear membrane thickness to 10 nm. Dielectric properties of all constituents of the model were obtained from the literature or measured. Because the FEM Low Frequency solver is a quasi-static solver and not capable of accepting a time-varying pulse as input, all computations have been performed at single frequencies in the range DC to 60 MHz, sampled from the Fourier spectrum of the actual 5 ns pulse used in experiments. Electric field and TMP distributions have been computed in the cell model as a function of frequency, granule radius, and orientation of the applied E-field.Results show that granules located in the vicinity of the equatorial side of the nucleus had a higher TMP magnitude than the rest of the granules. In contrast, granules located in the vicinity of the poles of the nucleus had a lower TMP magnitude. The TMP distribution in the granules was strongly dependent on their location with respect to the nucleus and could exhibit asymmetries. Clearly, the nucleus had an influence on the TMP of the surrounding granules and the region of influence extended to a radial distance of 2 mu m from the nucleus. Creating a realistic model of a chromaffin cell is fundamental in order to estimate the TMP and electric field in a chromaffin cell. Such knowledge is important for understanding the impact of NEPs on the modulation of hormone secretion. Advisors/Committee Members: Chatterjee, Indira (advisor), Craviso, Gale L.

▼ Compound semiconductors are III-V semiconductor nitrides, such as AlN, GaN and AlGaN, which have attracted plenty of attention due to their extraordinary material properties, such as high mobility, high saturation velocity and power density, and become a promising alternative for microwave power device. They have demonstrated excellent performance in such applications as UV detectors, UV and visible light emitting diodes (LEDs), microwave power amplifications, satellite, radar and wireless communication systems. However, the main impediment of this technology is lack of reliability, and some relative studies and degradation mechanisms have been proposed, such as hot-electron-induced trap degradation, inverse piezoelectric effect and electric-field driven mechanism under off-state conditions. In order to improve the reliability of GaN HEMTs technology, it is essentially important to understand the nature of device degradation. In this dissertation, the effects of source field plates, gate metallization, passivation layers and buffer structures on the dc/rf performance and reliability of AlGaN/GaN high electron mobility transistors (HEMTs) under off-state stress conditions were investigated using step-stress cycling. 19 The source field plate enhanced the drain breakdown voltage from 55V to 155V and the critical voltage for off-state gate stress from 40V to 65V, relative to devices without the field plate. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) results showed the presence of pits that appeared on both source and drain side of the gate edges, which was attributed to the inverse piezoelectric effect. The significant improvements of dc performance and reliability of AlGaN/GaN high electron mobility transistors (HEMTs) had been achieved by employing Pt/Ti/Au instead of the conventional Ni/Au gate metallization. The critical voltage of electrical step-stress was increased more than 100% for HEMTs with Pt/Ti/Au gate metallization as compared to HEMTs with Ni/Au gate metallization. Another issue related to device reliability is current collapse, which limits the performance of HEMTs in high power and high frequency applications. We had investigated Al To understand the trap behavior in GaN-based HEMTs, a trap-analysis method was developed, and the effect of off-state electrical stress on the trap densities was studied as well. Two traps with different activation energies at temperature range of 300-493K and 493-573K were identified by temperature dependence of sub-threshold slope measurement. In addition, the effects of defect densities on the reliability of AlGaN/GaN HEMTs were also studied. The device with three different types of buffer 20 2O3 and HfO2 deposited with an atomic layer deposition system and conventional, thick (200 nm) plasma enhanced chemically vapor deposited SiNx. The latter is found to be the most effective in reducing drain current loss during gate lag measurements in both single and double pulse mode, but also reduces fT and fMax through additional parasitic capacitance. layers, including an AlGaN/GaN… Advisors/Committee Members: REN,FAN (committee chair), TSENG,YIIDER (committee member), GILA,BRENT P (committee member).

▼ Different low-emission mobility and green logistics strategies have been followed by the European Commission in recent years to reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emission in the transport sector. On top of all these strategies, milestones and targets have been set for the electrification of road transport in the European roadmap. The range anxiety has been subjected as a matter of debate for electrifying different truck classes by using battery electric vehicles (BEVs). However, the technical battery and fast-charging limits will cause more challenges with the electrification of medium and heavy-duty trucks compared to the light-duty ones. The objective of this thesis is to evaluate the potential of electrifying road freight transport by implementing the battery electric trucks (BETs) in Finland and Switzerland. For this purpose, a three-step framework is suggested to prepare data, analyse electrification potential, and estimate the emission-cost factors. The main resources for the data preparation step are the valuable freight travel datasets, which previously processed by Liimatainen et al. (2019), for Finland and Switzerland in 2016. The data preparation and electrification analysis are customised based on the battery electric vehicle potential (BEVPO) model, developed by Melliger et al. (2018), and the requirement settings in the different scenario packages of battery and fast charging facilities. Finally, the emission-cost analysis step is dedicated for evaluation of the CO2 equivalent life cycle assessment (LCA), total cost of ownership (TCO), and action costs for CO2 equivalent reduction potential in different electrification scenario packages. This study shows that the road electrification potential in Finland is limited based on the current technology (with 10% tkm coverage). However, Switzerland has a larger potential for electrifying road freight (with 84% tkm coverage) maybe because of applying the smaller gross vehicle weight (GVW) policy for the road transport, having the smaller road network, and covering the larger fast charging service area. Moreover, the best scenario package is selected by considering the CO2 equivalent LCA reduction potential as well as relevant action costs for short and long-term horizons in both countries. In Switzerland, the best scenario package is based on the current technology of battery and fast charging facility which results in 56% CO2 equivalent LCA reduction (0.93 million tons CO2 equivalent per year) with the action cost of -5 €/ton CO2 equivalent. The negative action costs for CO2 equivalent LCA reduction in Switzerland means that the benefits are more than the costs in the relevant electrification scenario. In Finland, the most cost-efficient electrification potential will be achieved in the short-term horizon with the help of 2,348 km electric road systems (ERSs), which results in 24% CO2 equivalent LCA reduction (0.60 million tons CO2 equivalent per year) by the action cost of 550 €/ton CO2 equivalent. However, for the long-term horizon in Finland, 50% increase in…

▼ Laser induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) has becomeincreasingly popular as a sampling technique since its inception following theinvention of the laser. In what is typically an atomic emission method, asingle laser pulse performs the sample ablation, vaporization, and excitationin a single step allowing any phase of matter to be rapidly, qualitativelystudied for the presence of numerous elements. Minimal sample preparation andthe relative simplicity of the typical LIBS instrument make it appealing asboth an analytical tool for the laboratory and for commercial-industrial applications.1,2,3 LIBS has a tremendous potential in the areaof aerosol analysis as it provides a method for in situ analysis of the density and composition of environmentalaerosols which few methods can accomplish as rapidly and remotely.Quantification of sample compositions is possible with LIBS, but requirescareful consideration of the complex mechanisms controlling the sample ablationand excitation mechanisms. Though the physical arrangement for a LIBS aerosolmeasurement can be quite simple the processes involved are all but.4,5 Aerosols are composedof small discrete particles which, when sampled in the lab or in the field, aredifficult to control.6 Variations in themeasurements on these particles can be caused by laser-particle scattering,particle to particle matrix defects and effects, spectral interferences andparticle-photon resonances which are not seen in continuous samples.2,3 This research focuses on the two problems listed above:sample control issues and sources of signal variation, which limit analytequantification. The electrodynamic balance, which has been used by previousresearchers for optical characterization of aerosols7 is used here for LIBSmeasurements. This technique provides complete control of confined, chargedaerosol particles. With this precise handling capability, consistentlaser-particle and plasma-particle interactions are observed with bothspectrally integrated / time resolved and time integrated / spectrally resolveddetectors to provide details on the processes involved for micrometer sizedcharged aerosol particles.

▼ Carbon nanotube enabled vertical field transistor (CN-VFET) was developed as a new class of transistors with novel architecture that enables high density circuitry as well as delivers industrially relevant performance. This new design took advantage of using carbon nanotube thin films as transparent electrodes, enabling low-cost processing and high transparency. These CN-VFETs and their relatives show great promise for the next generation of electronics. N-channel CN-VFETs based on a solution deposited ZnO nanoparticle thin film as the channel material were demonstrated. The devices exhibit on/off ratios approaching 10⁴ with output current densities exceeding 60 mA/cm². the modulation of the Schottky barrier formed at carbon nanotube/silicon heteronjunctions was explored using ionic liquid as gate dielectric. The influence of interface states at the interface were also studied via silicon surface oxidation as the means of surface passivation. The general results with proper surface passivation showed a modulation of 10³ – 10⁴ at gate voltages of ± 0.4V in either forward or reverse bias. Temperature dependence of the characteristics of a carbon nanotube enabled vertical field transistor (CN-VFET) had been investigated in detail. Channel layers with moderate and high mobility organic semiconductors have been fabricated and characterized at different temperatures. Results of high mobility semiconductors show that CN-VFETs operate with different principles from conventional field effect transistors (FETs) that the device operation is most likely dominated by carrier injection at the interface of the source and channel rather than the modulation of carrier transport inside the channel layer. We also demonstrated silicon based CN-VFETs. Unlike previous CN-VFETs, a single crystal silicon wafer is used as the channel layer and devices with a top gate dielectric were fabricated. The device exhibit a current on/off ratio of nearly 10⁵ with an on current density exceeding 5 A/cm² over a drain voltage of 2 V.

▼ Research on photovoltaic cells has been ongoing for numerous decades, yet only a few device structures have passed the test of affordability, longevity, and efficiency. Volatile markets, decreasing resources, and a penchant for innovation fuel the continued research of different architectures utilizing various organic and inorganic materials. Concomitant with an increase in solar cell efficiency is a deeper understanding of the underlying physical processes present in such devices, something which benefits all scientific fields. This dissertation explores and exploits the physical processes uncovered during experiments aimed at improving solar cells efficiency through surface texturing. Not only do our modifications increase device efficiency, but these advances can be implemented in other semiconductor based devices. Silicon nanowires have long been known for their excellent antireflection properties, but have suffered substantially from recombination at the surface, relegating them to academic and industrial research projects. Nonetheless, progress has been made in alleviating issues plaguing silicon nanowire devices. Here, we deposit a disperse carbon nanotube network on tops of silicon nanowires to produce a high performing solar cell. Previous experiments on carbon nanotube- silicon solar cells made use of an ionic liquid to modulate the nanotube Fermi level via electronic gating. This modulation changed the Schottky barrier height of the device and decreased the carbon nanotube film resistance, leading to power conversion efficiencies of up to 12% for a gate voltage of -0.75V. Further experiments uncovered an additional mechanism in which the ionic liquid induced and inversion layer within the silicon, greatly facilitating hole extraction by repelling electrons from the silicon surface (and consequently reducing recombination). We exploit this induced inversion layer within our silicon nanowire solar cells and show a greatly increased power conversion efficiency of over 15%, the highest reported efficiency for silicon nanowire based devices. We also investigate the physical and chemical processes responsible for degradation and subsequently use advanced passivation techniques to alleviate these losses. Specifically, deposition of aluminum oxide via atomic layer deposition creates a high quality, conformal, dielectric layer that inhibits electrochemical reactions between the ionic liquid and the silicon, leading to minimal reduction in performance as the gate voltage is applied. We also show that contamination of the ionic liquid with oxygen or water vapor reduced the electrochemical window, leading to redox reactions for gate voltages previously thought to be well within the electrochemical window. Controlling for these two degradation paths, we show stable performance of our electronically gated carbon nanotube on silicon solar cells. These improvements are not applicable only to our devices, but have implications for many liquid electrolyte devices, most notably the liquid junction cells research in the… Advisors/Committee Members: Rinzler, Andrew Gabriel (committee chair), Biswas, Amlan (committee member), Stanton, Christopher Jay (committee member), Tanner, David B (committee member), So, Franky Fat Kei (committee member).

▼ The traditional industry-accepted method of determining the lifetime of a semiconductor is based-on acceleration aging through elevated operating temperatures. As the semiconductor technology advances, the determination of device lifetime have yielded unrealistic mean time to failure (MTTF) measurements. High temperature testing does not necessarily manifest all the failure mechanisms that reduce reliability. In order to understand defects that are indeed failure mechanisms requires special tools and different ways of testing. To further the understanding and identification of failure mechanisms in semiconductor devices we introduced the combination of electrical and optical characterization and stress testing. A new tool has been designed and realized that not only performs a suite of electrical tests, but adds optical pumping capabilities. The band-gap of materials like GaN is wide enough that light from the visible spectrum can pump trap energies within the band-gap providing the opportunity to identify defects that have below band-gap energy levels. By employing optical pumping as an excitation method, the response can be measured electrically resulting in a flexible tool to characterize defects. Since some defects merely affect performance and not necessarily reliability, the ultimate goal is to provide a tool that will help identify the correlation between defects and reliability. AlGaN/GaN High Electron Mobility Transistors (HEMTs) were electrically stressed under on-state (VG = 0), off-state (VG TH) and semi-on conditions (VG = -2V) and characterized using optical pumping methods that are indicators of a change in trap density as a result of electrical stressing, since the energy from a specific wavelength of light fills traps whose activation energies are less than or equal to that of the light source. Changes in trap densities were minimal after both off-state and on-state stressing but significant trap creation was observed in HEMTs exhibiting gradual degradation during stressing. Additional testing on transmission line modules yielded no degradation, suggesting the degradation in the HEMTs is related to the gate’s interaction with the channel. From the optical pumping characterization data, using a sum-of-exponential curve fitting algorithm and Arrhenius analysis, the activation energy of traps can be determined by photoexciting with sub band-gap illumination. Specifically, we found traps at 0.14eV, 0.92eV and 0.96eV relative to EC that correspond to substitutional point defect CGa (0.14eV), and antisite NGa (~0.92eV) and the VNH complex (~0.96eV).

▼ Establishing adirect pathway between the brain and a machine is a promising technique for assisting, augmenting, or repairing human cognitive or sensory-motor functions.The core of this emerging paradigm is a low power and highly integrated brain–machine interface (BMI) that can less invasively sense neural signals above a minimum duration. This work focuses on the design of low-power circuits and systems for optimizing the energy efficiency, recording lifetime, size, and transmission range of BMI systems. This dissertation first provides an overview of BMI systems and then discusses each BMI building block in terms of power dissipation, noise, size, and reliability requirements. The neural amplifier, typically the first stage of a neural acquisition system, is given particular attention, and, with the goal of achieving both low noise and energy efficiency in amplifier design, this work presents three new amplifier structures: (1) a cascading structure that helps reduce power consumption without sacrificing noise performance by sharing the bias current between two channels; (2) a time multiplexing structure that helps reduce the die size and power consumption by sharing a single operational transconductance amplifier among multiple input channels; and (3) a supply current modulation structure that decreases the amplifier’s average power consumption using atrack and hold function. To analyze switching effects in both the time-multiplexed and supply current–modulated amplifiers, detailed derivations of their respective transfer functions and noise aliasing characteristics are carried out. These derivation procedures are simplified by equating the switched amplifier to a switched RC filter model, and the results show that both schemes cause noise from higher frequency bands to alias down to the base band. The overall noise efficiency factor, however, remains unchanged because of the power saving benefits of the two architectures. This dissertation also presents two new neural recording systems. The first is a battery powered, four-channel device with an analog front end, a digital signalprocessor, and a wireless transceiver. The second system is a single channel neural recording tag that can be powered through a battery or wirelessly from an external resource.

The present study falls in the field of atmospheric electricity and investigates the daily and seasonal variation of atmospheric electric field in a periurban environment. Certain applications of the electric field include the observation of global thunderstorm activity through the global electric circuit, the observation of atmospheric pollution and especially particulate pollution, the recognition of approaching thunderstorms and the assessment of lightning hazard. Although electric field has an extended range of applications it is not widely measured and the available data are limited. In the context of the present work a meteorological station also able of conducting electric field measurements was established and the electrical climatology of Xanthi was presented. Electric field's response to the existence and approach of thunderstorms was studied along with the effect of topography. Station's ability in observing the global circuit was also investigated and the most appropriate periods were defined. Moreover, electric field was compared with CO2 and O2, and the relationship connecting electric field and CO2 under nocturnal stratification was found. Finally, aerosol optical depth data acquired from the co-located AERONET station were used in the study of electric field diurnal and seasonal variation by means of optical depth.

Ορισμένες από τις εφαρμογές του ηλεκτρικού πεδίου περιλαμβάνουν την παρακολούθηση της παγκόσμιας καταιγιδοφόρου δραστηριότητας μέσω του παγκόσμιου ηλεκτρικού κυκλώματος, την παρακολούθηση της ατμοσφαιρικής ρύπανσης και ειδικότερα της σωματιδιακής, την αναγνώριση επερχόμενων καταιγίδων και την εκτίμηση της κεραυνικής επικινδυνότητας. Παρά το μεγάλο εύρος των εφαρμογών του ηλεκτρικού πεδίου η μέτρησή του δεν είναι διαδεδομένη και τα διαθέσιμα δεδομένα είναι περιορισμένα. Στα πλαίσια της εν λόγω εργασίας εγκαταστάθηκε μετεωρολογικός σταθμός με δυνατότητα μέτρησης ατμοσφαιρικού ηλεκτρικού πεδίου και μελετήθηκε η ηλεκτρική κλιματολογία της Ξάνθης. Μελετήθηκε επίσης, η απόκριση του ηλεκτρικού πεδίου στην ύπαρξη και προσέγγιση καταιγίδων στο σταθμό και αναλύθηκε η επίδραση της τοπογραφίας. Ακόμα, έγινε έλεγχος για τη δυνατότητα του σταθμού να παρακολουθεί το παγκόσμιο κύκλωμα και βρέθηκαν οι βέλτιστες χρονικές στιγμές για την παρατήρηση. Το ηλεκτρικό πεδίο συγκρίθηκε και με μετρήσεις CO2 και O2 και βρέθηκε η σχέση που το συνδέει με το CO2 υπό συνθήκες νυχτερινής στρωμάτωσης. Τέλος, αξιοποιήθηκαν δεδομένα οπτικού βάθους σωματιδίων από τον παρακείμενο σταθμό της AERONET και μελετήθηκε η εποχική και ημερήσια κύμανση του ηλεκτρικού πεδίου με όρους οπτικού βάθους.

La cartographie de potentiel est couramment utilisée afin de détecter les zones de corrosion à risque dans les ouvrages en béton armé. Cette méthode utilise une électrode de référence positionnée à la surface du béton afin de mesurer la différence de potentiel entre un point à la surface du béton et une connexion au réseau d'armatures. Toutefois, il existe deux inconvénients majeurs à cette technique : la connexion au treillis d'armatures qui nécessite d'y avoir accès et la vérification de sa continuité électrique dans la zone de mesure. Dans le but de ne plus être soumis à ces inconvénients, une nouvelle méthode est proposée. Au lieu de se connecter au treillis, une seconde électrode de référence est utilisée, elle aussi positionnée à la surface du béton étudié. Cette configuration de mesure ne donne plus des potentiels électriques, mais des gradients de potentiel entre les deux électrodes de mesure. Par la mise en place de simulations numériques et d'essais expérimentaux, cette configuration de mesure est étudiée. En ce qui concerne le travail expérimental, deux dalles de béton armé de 3x3x0,15m ont été coulées afin d'être proche des conditions rencontrées sur site. Ensuite que des zones corrodées, dont la taille est contrôlée, sont créées de manière accélérée à l'aide d'un dispositif de migration de chlorures. L'épaisseur d'enrobage de la dalle ayant une influence sur les mesures, il a été choisi de couler deux dalles. La première dalle comporte un treillis dont l'épaisseur d'enrobage est constante alors que la seconde dalle possède une épaisseur d'enrobage variable. En ce qui concerne la modélisation, une étude paramétrique utilisant la méthode des éléments finis est réalisée. Cette modélisation permet l'étude de l'influence de nombreux paramètres tels que la résistivité, la taille de la zone corrodée, l'épaisseur d'enrobage, le procédé de mesure, etc. C'est l'analyse des courants d'échange, mais aussi des cartographies de potentiels et de gradients de potentiel qui permettent la corrélation entre les résultats expérimentaux et de simulation. C'est alors qu'il est possible de conclure sur la faisabilité de cette méthode et de ses avantages par comparaison avec la mesure classique.

Half-cell potential mapping is commonly used to detect corrosion risks in reinforced concrete structures. This method uses a reference electrode positioned on the surface of concrete for measuring potential difference by using a voltmeter connected to the reinforcement. However, there are two major drawbacks in the implementation of this method: the necessity to make an electrical connection to the reinforcement and the electrical continuity of this reinforcement. In order to overcome these disadvantages, a new method is proposed. Instead of using electrical connection to rebar, a second reference electrode is used, also positioned on the surface. These two electrodes configuration gives the electrical potential gradient on the concrete surface. By performing both experimental work and numerical modelling this method configuration is…

▼ The main goal of this thesis is to evaluate different machine learning models in order to classify buyers of an electric or a hybrid vehicle and to identify the characteristics of the buyers in the European Union. Machine learning algorithms and techniques were adopted to analyze the dataset and to create models that could predict, with a certain accuracy, the customer’s willingness to buy an EV. Identification of the characteristics of the buyers were based on the identified most important features from the machine learning models and statistical analysis. The research consisted of exploratory and explanatory methods (mixed method) with quantitative and qualitative techniques. Quantitative technique was applied to convert categorical values to ordinal and nominal numeric values, to establish cause and effect relationship between the variables by using statistical analysis and to apply machine learning methods on the dataset. The quantitative results were then analyzed by using quantitative and qualitative techniques in order to identify the characteristics of the buyers. The data analytics part relied on a publicly available large dataset from the EU containing transport and mobility related data. From the experiments with logistics regression, support vector machine, random forest, gradient boosting classifier and the artificial neural network it was found that ANN is the best model to identify who won’t buy an EV and gradient boosting classifier is the best model to identify who would like to buy and EV. ML based feature importance identification methods (MDI, permutation feature importance) were used to analyze the characteristics of the buyers. The major buyer’s characteristics found in this thesis are environmental concern, knowledge on car sharing, country of residence, education, control traffic, gender, incentive, education and location of residence. Authors have recommended green marketing as the potential enablers towards a faster and larger adoption of electrical vehicles in the market as environmental impact was found as the most significant behavior of the buyer. Finally, for the future researchers, the authors have recommended fine-tuning the algorithms extensively in order to achieve better accuracy and to collect primary data based on the most important features identified in this thesis.

▼ AlGaN/GaN HEMT technology is promising for RF and high power applications. However commercial usability of this technology is currently hindered because of its limited electrical reliability which still remains a major concern. AlGaN/GaN HEMTs have been shown to degrade irreversibly under typical device operation and there is widespread disagreement on the underlying fundamental physics for the observed device degradation. Electrical degradation in AlGaN/GaN HEMTs due to DC stressing is studied typically by performing electrical step stress tests and a critical voltage is determined. Device degradation is characterized by changes measured in electrical parameters, such as increase in Rs and RD, decrease in IDsat, decrease in gm, Vt shift and sub-threshold change. The widely accepted theory attributes such degradation to the inverse piezoelectric effect. Electric field due to applied bias generates biaxial tensile stress which together with intrinsic stress from lattice mismatch increases the elastic energy of AlGaN layer. AlGaN layer undergoes crystallographic defect formation when total elastic energy reaches a critical value. Another theory associates such degradationto thermally activated chemical reaction occurring at metal-semiconductor interface 15 resulting in gate metal diffusion into semiconductor layer or consumption of interfacial oxide present. Inverse piezoelectric effect model does not highlight the time dependent device breakdown in AlGaN/GaN HEMTs. The electrical degradation is also observed at voltages below critical voltage during constant voltage stressing in similarly fabricated devices. However time to breakdown is longer for applied lower voltages than for higher voltages. Heterostructures under excessive strain undergo relaxation to lower system energy either through attaining homogeneity at the interface via diffusion or generation of misfit dislocations at the interface. Both mechanisms tend to compete and the one with more favorable kinetic conditions takes place. These kinetic conditions may vary with temperature, electrical bias, external mechanical stress and concentration of chemical species (or ambient). Both diffusion and trap generation are rate dependent processes and hence can explain the time-dependent degradation in AlGaN/GaN HEMT. Strain relaxation models are investigated and validated experimentally in AlGaN/GaN HEMTs by monitoring device degradation under external conditions such as electrical bias, temperature, mechanical stress and varying ambient.
