  1. 1. Fabrication and Characterization of Silicon Carbide Power Bipolar Junction Transistors

    Author : Hyung-Seok Lee; Carl-Mikael Zetterling; Tat-Sing Chow; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; silicon carbide; power device; BJT; current gain; specific on resistance RSP_ON ; breakdown voltage; forward voltage drop; surface recombination; ohmic contact.; Electrical engineering; electronics and photonics; Elektroteknik; elektronik och fotonik;

    Abstract : Silicon carbide bipolar junction transistors (BJTs) are attractive power switching devices because of the unique material properties of SiC with high breakdown electric field, high thermal conductivity and high saturated drift velocity of electrons. The SiC BJT has potential for very low specific on-resistances and this together with high temperature operation makes it very suitable for applications with high power densities. READ MORE

  2. 2. The Effects of Lightning on Low Voltage Power Networks

    Author : Raul Montaño; Vernon Cooray; Marcos Rubinstein; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Electrical engineering; Lightning induced effects; Lightning Electromagnetic fields; Electromagnetic Compatibility EMC ; Surge Protective Devices SPDs ; Low voltage power networks; Elektroteknik; elektronik och fotonik; Electrical engineering; electronics and photonics; Elektroteknik; elektronik och fotonik;

    Abstract : The present society is highly dependant on complex electronics systems, which have a low damage threshold level. Therefore, there is a high risk of partial or total loss of the system’s electronics when they are exposed to a thunderstorm environment. READ MORE

  3. 3. Dynamic avalanche in Si and 4H-SiC power diodes

    Author : Martin Domeij; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Electrical engineering; electronics and photonics; Elektroteknik; elektronik och fotonik;

    Abstract : Semiconductor power modules for the control of high currentsand high voltages have important applications in motor drives,traction and power transmission. Dynamic avalanche is of atechnological interest since it may limit the safe operatingarea for bipolar switching devices and for power diodes, whichare important integral parts of a power module.

  4. 4. Dimensioning Tools of MEA Actuator Systems, Including Modeling, Analysis and Technology Comparison

    Author : Mohsen Torabzadeh-Tari; Göran Engdahl; Hans Bernhoff; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Dimensioning tools; MEA; More Electric Aircraft; EMA; Electro Mechanical Actuator; EM; Electrical Machine; Converter; Inverter; Finite Element Method; FEM; Electrical engineering; electronics and photonics; Elektroteknik; elektronik och fotonik;

    Abstract : Aircraft design is an example of complex engineering where dimensioning tools can be valuable for the designers and decision makers in the early stage of the development process. These tools can be in form of a database over key numbers for different components or technologies. One of the critical parts of an aircraft is the actuator system. READ MORE
