Hervé JAOUEN (SM’01) obtained an Engineering Degree in 1979 and a Ph.D. degree in 1984 from the Institut National Polytechnique de Grenoble (France). From 1981 to 1989, he was Associate Professor at the “Institut National Polytechnique de Grenoble”, France, where he developed for his PhD a novel technique of RTP: the microwave annealing of semiconductors. He then worked on the electronic transport properties of disordered matter. In 1989 he joined the Technology CAD group of SGS Thomson Microelectronics, where he was involved in the STORM EEC program with th goal of developing a 2-D process simulation tool. Next he was managed the TCAD group of the Crolles’ Plant for STMicroelectronics. Since 2004, he has been the head of the ST Modeling Department in Crolles. The scope covered by his department includes TCAD, Compact Modeling and ESD Modeling.

Dr. Jaouen has published over 50 papers in the area of microelectronics and holds 18 granted US patents in the field. He holds positions on the technical program committees of ESSDERC, SISPAD, ESREF conferences, as well as for the GADEST workshop and was a member of the IEDM technical program committee. He serves as European representative for the ITRS Modeling and Simulation ITWG. Dr. Jaouen was and is involved in the coordination of the activity of STMicroelectronics in the technical management committees of numerous IST European Community Programs, such as ADEQUAT, HUNT, ACE, ARTEMIS, SUGGERT. He holds positions in the management committees of some French national research programs such as ANR-PNANO on nanotechnology and ANR-CIS on high performance computing.

His research interests cover the physics of electronic transport, quantum and solid state phenomena, the electrical, mechanical and electro-mechanical properties of materials and devices, modeling and simulation of technological processes and electrical behavior of devices (CMOS, BiCMOS , Analog and RF) and the compact modeling associated with them.
