Nicolas Nolhier

Nicolas Nolhier received the Ph.D. degree in electronics from the French National Institute of Applied Sciences (INSA), Toulouse, France, in 1992. He is Professor with the University Paul Sabatier, Toulouse, and works at the Laboratory of Analysis and Architecture of Systems (LAAS-CNRS). First motivated by the control and modeling of rapid heat treatment, his interests shifted to the design and simulation of power devices. In 1996, he initiated the study of ESD protections using 2D electrothermal simulations at LAAS and studied TLP experiments. He has supervised more than 15 Ph.Ds in ESD protection strategy (device and system level). Since 2016, he has focused on the reliability of space nanosystems. In 2019, he became Director with the Toulouse University Space Center (CSUT).
