      As in the case of elliptic curves, their exists a \(j\)-function for rank 2 Drinfeld modules (defined on \(\mathbb{F}_q [T]\)) which classifies their isomorphy classes. First of all, the author gives a complete list of singular invariants, i.e. of values of \(j\) for isomorphy classes of singular rank 2 Drinfeld modules. Secondly, the author studies supersingular invariants. For all integers \(n\geq 0\), he gives a set \(S(n)\) such that, for any prime \({\mathfrak P}\) of \(\mathbb{F}_q [T]\) of odd degree equal to \(2n+1\), reduction modulo \({\mathfrak P}\) is one to one between \(S(n)\) and supersingular \(j\)-invariants modulo \({\mathfrak P}\). A similar construction is done for primes of even degrees (which is a complete analog when \(q\) is also even).
