In this paper, we propose a new optically controlled field effect transistor, OC-FET, based on both surface texturization and graded gate doping engineering. The proposed design consists of a gate with both graded doping and surface texturization aspects to ensure high efficient light absorption and low dark current, respectively. Moreover, using an analytical investigation, an overall performance comparison of the proposed dual texturized gate (DTG) OC-FET device and conventional OC-FETs has been studied in order to confirm the enhanced optical and electrical performance of the proposed design in terms of increased photoresponsivity (R), optical gain (Formula presented.) ratio, drain current driving capability (Formula presented.) and high signal to noise ratio. Simulations show very good agreement between the results of the developed analytical models and those of TCAD software for wide range of design parameters. The developed analytical models are used to formulate the objective functions to optimize the device performance using a multi-objective genetic algorithm (MOGA). The proposed MOGA-based approach is used to search the optimal design parameters, for which the electrical and optical device performance is maximized. The obtained superior electrical performance suggests that our DTG OC-FET offers great promise as optical sensors and transducers for CMOS-based optical communications.

The objective of this paper is to develop a novel combined MPPT-pitch angle robust control system of a variable-speed wind turbine. The direct driven wind turbine using the permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG) is connected to the grid by means of fully controlled frequency converters, which consist of a pulse width-modulation PWM rectifier connected to an inverter via an intermediate DC bus. In order to maximize the exploited wind power and benefit from a wide range of the wind speed, a novel combined maximum power point tracking (MPPT)-Pitch angle control is developed using only one low cost circuit based on Neural Network (ANN), which allows the PMSG to operate at an optimal speed to extract maximum power when this last is lower than nominal power, and limit the extra power. To achieve feeding the grid with high-power and good quality of electrical energy, the inverter is controlled by (PWM) in a way to deliver only the active power into the grid, and thus to obtain a unit power factor. DC-link voltage is also controlled by the inverter. The dynamic and steady-state performances of the wind energy conversion system (WECS) are carried by using Matlab Simulink.
