Organisation
The French Alternative Energies and Atomic Energy Commission (CEA) is a key player in research, development and innovation in four main areas :
• defence and security,
• nuclear energy (fission and fusion),
• technological research for industry,
• fundamental research in the physical sciences and life sciences.
Drawing on its widely acknowledged expertise, and thanks to its 16000 technicians, engineers, researchers and staff, the CEA actively participates in collaborative projects with a large number of academic and industrial partners.
The CEA is established in ten centers spread throughout France

Job description
The goal of this PhD thesis is to design a Phase Locked Loop for generic use at 5 GHz. This PLL will also include a study regarding each building bloc sensitivity to radiation and thermal sensitivity regarding space environment. This is the main point of this PhD thesis because integrating a PLL in harsh environment requires an accurate knowledge of the circuit's parameters. The candidate will begin its work by analysing existing works on the FD-SOI technology (structure characteristics and impact on radiation hardening) to serve as a base for its work and design a Phase Locked Loop architecture. He will also study how to characterise each PLL building bloc variations in harsh environment (radiation and temperature).
