Abstract: A reversible converter includes a first field effect transistor and a second field effect transistor coupled in series between a first terminal and a second terminal for a DC voltage. A first thyristor and a second thyristor are coupled in series between the first and second terminals for the DC voltage. A third thyristor and a fourth thyristor are also coupled in series between the first and second terminals for the DC voltage terminals, but have an opposite connection polarity with respect to the first and second thyristors. A midpoint of connection between the first and second field effect transistors and a common midpoint of connection between the first and second thyristors and the third and fourth thyristors are coupled to AC voltage terminals. Actuation of the transistors and thyristors is controlled in distinct manners to operate the converter in an AC-DC conversion mode and a DC-AC conversion mode.

Abstract: A lithium-metal or lithium-ion battery includes a stack of a cathode layer made of LiCoO2, an anode layer and an electrolyte layer made of LiPON positioned between anode and cathode layers. An encapsulating layer covers the stack. The battery further includes an interface layer made of a material that is able to capture oxygen generated during charge/discharge cycles of the battery. This interface layer is placed under the encapsulating layer.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is an electronic device including a substrate, with an active layer stack on the substrate. A cover is on the active layer stack and has a surface area greater than that of the active layer so as to encapsulate the active layer stack. A conductive pad layer is on the cover. At least one conductive via extends between the active layer stack and the conductive pad layer.

Abstract: A method is for treating a doped gallium nitride substrate of a first conductivity type, having dislocations emerging on the side of at least one of its surfaces. The method may include: a) forming, where each dislocation emerges, a recess extending into the substrate from the at least one surface; and b) filling the recesses with doped gallium nitride of the second conductivity type.

Abstract: A capacitor has a variable capacitance settable by a bias voltage. A method for setting the bias voltage including the steps of: (a) injecting a constant current to bias the capacitor; (b) measuring the capacitor voltage at the end of a time interval; (c) calculating the capacitance value obtained at the end of the time interval; (d) comparing this value with a desired value; and (e) repeating steps (a) to (d) so as long as the calculated value is different from the set point value. When calculated value matches the set point value; the measured capacitor voltage is stored as a bias voltage to be applied to the capacitor for setting the variable capacitance.
