    (University of Oum El Bouaghi, 2021) Daira, Radouan; Zerouali, Madiha; Boudjema, Bouzid
    Our work consists in depositing the copper oxide Fe doped CuO films by spray obtained from the solution of copper chloride CuCl2 and FeCl2 with a percentage of 2, 4; 6 and 8%, on glass substrates at a temperature of 3500c. The thin films obtained are characterized by X-ray diffraction, visible UV spectroscopy and the four-point technique. With X-ray diffraction, high peak intensity is obtained for the preferential orientations of (002) and (111), this intensity increases as the doping rate increases and gives us a more crystalline structure for a doping rate of 8%, also a grain size were estimated. The transmission of our films varies between 55% and 75% with a high absorption in the visible domain, the resistivity of our films increase with the increase of doping rate and the gap energy varies between 4.00 and 1.47 eV. .

    (University of Oum El Bouaghi, 2021) Kamli, Kenza; Hadef, Zakaria
    Tin disulphide semiconductors are used in various applications and specifically in solar cells. They are relatively inexpensive compared to other thin films used in the photovoltaic technology. Tin disulphide thin film has been promisingly proposed for this field application as buffer or window layer. In this work, we study the effect of deposition time on the structural, morphological and optical properties of tin disulphide thin films deposited on glass substrates using spray pyrolysis technique. The phase of SnS2 are identified using X-Ray diffraction. A single phase without impurities is observed for the elaborated samples. The optical analyses show that the filmprepared at 65 min present the highest transmittance in the visible region. The obtained results confirm that SnS2 thin films can be good candidates for solar cells devices. These results are of great importance in the prediction of the good application of SnS2 thin films in solar cells.

    (University of Oum El Bouaghi, 2021) Benkara, S.; Seghairi, N.; Bouabida, S.; Ghamri, H.
    Zn/Sn nanocomposite deposited on glace substrate by sol gel dip-coating technic, using Zinc acetate and tin chloride as precursors and aluminium chloride as dopping source, absolute ethanol and monoethanolamine (MEA) were used as the solvent and stabilizer, respectively. The quantity of tin in the solution was 0; 25; and 40 at.% Sn, and of aluminium was 0; 0,5; 2; and 4 at.% Al. The films are deposited at two dipping speeds: 100 mm/min and 50 mm/min, and used two dipping cycles: 10 and 5. The structure, optical properties and morphology of nanofilms and the influence of experimental parameters as withdrawal speed and dipping cycles on deposition of ZnO films were studied using X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), UV–vis spectroscopy and optical microscope. The crystalline phase determination from XRD confirmed that the films are composed of hexagonal wurtzite ZnO and tetragonal rutile SnO2 without compound impurities. The doping and dipping speed and cycles effect on optical bandgap is estimated by transmittance spectra.

    (University of Oum El Bouaghi, 2021) Refas, S.C.; Bouazza, A.; Belhadji, Y.; Othmani, R.
    The simulation with Monte-Carlo codes represented the efficiency tools which helps knowing the phenomena that occur inside the vacuum hamber for sputtering process. In this work, the impact of temperature and pressure parameters on the surface structure of thin films are studied in 3D form with the magnetron sputtering technique. Inside a vacuum chamber a 105 particles of Argon (Ar) gas are injected, the target contained the semiconductor silicon (Si), and the substrate is placed with a variable distance from the target .The results obtained in this work show that a high temperature, pressure and a long distance between the target and substrate can negatively affects the path of the atoms ejected away from the target which will cause a decrease in the number of atom arriving on the substrate.

    Pressure effect on structural, electronic and magnetic properties of the MAs (M = Cr, Mn) binary compounds
    (University of Oum El Bouaghi, 2021) kolli, Ahlem; Guechi, Nacir
    In this work, we have studied the structural, electronic and magnetic properties of the MAs (M = Cr, Mn) binary compounds in the zinc blende phase, under hydrostatic pressure using ab initio calculations. The spin polarized calculations were performed using the Pseudo-Potential Plane Wave (PP-PW) method based on the Density Functional Theory (DFT) as implemented in the CASTEP code. The exchange correlation effect was treated using the GGA-PBE approximation. Geometric optimizations were performed for a pressure range between -8.5 and 30GPa. The calculated equilibrium lattice constant (a) for both compounds agrees very well with the available theoretical and experimental reports. According to the bulk modulus (B) values, the CrAs compound with B = 64.53 GPa is more resistant to volume changes than the MnAs compound with B = 45.98 GPa. The electronic populations, energy band structures and density of states were calculated to determine the magneto-electronic properties. Analysis of the obtained results shows that these compounds exhibit a half-metallic ferromagnetic behavior with a band gap in the minority spin states resulting from the p-d hybridization. The total magnetic moment of MAs compounds comes mainly from the incomplete d-orbital of the Cr (Mn) atoms, and it is almost equal to an integer values of 3 μB (4 μB) per unit cell which is consistent with the Slater-Pauling rule. the halfmetallicity in the studied compounds is generally maintained over a wide pressure range. These results would help in incorporating MAs (M = Cr, Mn) compounds in spintronic devices.

    Investigation of structural and optical properties of mixed phase nanoparticles titania synthesized by simple sol gel process
    (University of Oum El Bouaghi, 2021) Zedek, Rezika; Djedjiga, Hatem; Megherbi, Mohamed; Said Belkaid, Mohammed
    The purpose of this study is to calculate the band gap value of mixture phases of TiO2 nanoparticless. The direct and indirect band gap of the samples can be estimated from measurements data of diffuse reflectance spectrascopy. Iron-doped titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles were prepared via a facile and economical sol gel procedure. The prepared samples were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD) and UV-Vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy. The obtained results by DRX displayed that samples annealed at 550 oC for 3h crystallized into mixture phases. The optical properties were investigated by UV-vis diffuse reflectance spectra (DRS). Using the DRS data, direct and indirect bandgap of the samples was determined by applying the Kubelka–Munk (K-M) equation. Graphics representations were used to calculate Eg: F(R) versus hv, F(R) versus λ, (F(R) hν)^n versus hv with n = ½ for an indirect allowed transition and n = 2 for a direct allowed transition). Moreover the UV-Vis light-diffuse reflectance spectroscopy analysis depicted that the absorption region of Fe-doped TiO2 was shifted to the visible-light range, which was attributed to incorporation of iron into the TiO2 lattice during chemical reaction.

    In this work, the structural and the magneto-electronic properties of the Sr1-xTixS compounds at dopant concentration x=0.25, 0.50, and 0.75 in the rocksalt ferromagnetic phase are studied using first-principles calculations based on density functional theory. The structural properties of the three compounds calculated indicate promising findings. The electronic band profiles, the density of states plots, and the integral magnetic moment validate the half-metallic feature only at x=0.25. As a result, the Sr0.75Ti0.25S compound is the most promising spintronic material in the series.

    Effects of doping profile and temperature on the solar cell performances
    (University of Oum El Bouaghi, 2021) Benchiheb, Asma; Benchiheb, Nedjoua; Saidi, Yasmina
    In this paper, an optimization of the structure of a silicon solar cell is presented. This study takes into account the effects of temperature and doping level of each region of the device. As the simulation with the COMSOL software allowed us to demonstrate the link between the technological structure of an N + NP type solar cell and the various characteristics and parameters obtained at the output when it is subjected to a polarization. Thus, we considered different doping levels and thicknesses of the N + layer. It has been observed that the effects of temperature are negligible for low doping levels of the N + layer. However, in heavy doping, the benefit of reducing its thickness below 0.018 μm is demonstrated, especially for the high temperature operating range. Concerning the base, we observed that its thickness must be maintained in the order of 100 μm.

    (University of Oum El Bouaghi, 2021) Daas, Assia; Mouetsi, Souheil; Hocini, Abderraouf; Hocini, Abdesselam; Lariouri, Fateh
    In this work an optical sensors has been designed and studied with different parameters to select the best result of Q factor and sensitivity; for that, we choose a 2D photonic crystal (PhC). The refractive index (RI) sensor is formed by a pointdefect resonant cavity in the quasi-sandwiched waveguide with a hexagonal lattice of air holes. The properties of the sensor are simulated using a couple of two methods finite-difference timedomain method (FDTD) and the plane wave method (PWE). The calculation results show that a change in ambient RI is apparent; the sensitivity of the sensor is achieved. The objective of our research was primarily modeling and optimization geometry of a first coupling path between a waveguide and a ring resonator with base of photonic crystals in order to improve the coupling properties in this structure. It is in this context that we have exploited all the parameters already developed for improve the biodetection properties in a photonic crystal-based structure. The role of our design is to sens small RI changes for detecting glucose concentration using resonant microcavity (RMC).

    (University of Oum El Bouaghi, 2021) Djezzar, Nor El Houda; Driss-Khodja, Kouider; Amrani, Bouhalouane
    With the development of technology, finding new crystallographic phases with remarkable properties and that are easy to be elaborated experimentally is highly recommended. The II-VI semiconductors are very interesting materials for various applications due to the possibility to preselect and control their physical properties; which can be realized by varying the atomic concentration to form alloys. Herein, density functional theory (DFT) calculation has been performed for the alloy MgxCd1-xO to investigate the thermodynamic, dynamical, and local stability of MgCdO2 for 50% of concentration and MgCd3O4 for 25%. MgCdO2 is stable in a tetragonal phase whereas, the MgCd3O4 is not stable in the same cubic phase predicted for 75% (Pm-3m) in the previous work, instead, it is stable in another cubic phase (P-43m). the elastic constants and mechanical properties predict that adding Mg atoms to the alloy enhance the resistance of the material.

    (University of Oum El Bouaghi, 2021) Karboua, Houcine; Boulakroune, M’hamed; Fortaki, Tarek
    Secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS) has been used to investigate Boron diffusion in Titanium silicide layers for several annealing conditions of duration and temperature. Experimental profiles were simulated using a model based on the famous Fick’s laws and the effect accompanying boron diffusion during silicidation like segregation and clustering. The comparison between simulation results and those of the literature in the same annealing conditions shows a good agreement between our results and those of other works. This explains that boron diffusion in titanium silicide depends on segregation, clustering and the solid solubility exceeds.

    (University of Oum El Bouaghi, 2021)
    One of the many applications of CMOS technology is the design the temperature sensors. In this paper, the electrical performance of smart CMOS(Si and 4H-SiC) temperature sensor in 130 nm technology have been studied using OrCAD PSpice software. The proposed CMOS circuit is developed to provide the first smart temperature sensor based on two different semiconductor technologies (Si and 4H-SiC) integrated on the same chip. These technologies are activated separately according to the temperature range (Low and High). The study of this smart sensor have shown that they operate under a low voltage less than 0.8 V and ultra low power of order nW. In addition, it is characterized by high sensitivity and good linearity across a temperature range from -120°C to 500°C. It is expected that the use of Si and 4H-SiC technologies for both temperature ranges (low and high) respectively will increase the life of this sensor.

    The identification of the high-frequency ladder network model (LNM) parameters for the transformer winding is the way to confirm its actual condition. This paper aims to present the application of one of the latest approach algorithms, namely, Particle Swarm Optimization with Invasive Weed Optimization (PSO-IWO) method for the identification of the high frequency LNM parameters for the transformer winding. The physical realizability of the LNM is ensured and it is based on the frequency response analysis FRA data and some terminal measurements of a transformer winding. The results are agreement and indicate that the identified model, is superior in terms of representing the physical behavior of the transformer winding in high frequency.
