  1. 6. On Gate Drivers for MOS-Controlled Power Devices and dv-dt Filters for Train Traction Converters

    Author : Erik Velander; Hans-Peter Nee; Francesco Iannuzzo; KTH; []
    Keywords : Power semiconductor devices; DC-AC power converters; Silicon carbide; Insulated gate bipolar transistors; P-i-n diodes; Schottky diodes; Traction motors; Power MOSFET; Krafthalvledare; DC-AC kraftomvandlare; kiselkarbid; IGBT; P-i-n dioder; Schottky dioder; traktionsmotorer; Effekt-MOSFET; Electrical Engineering; Elektro- och systemteknik;

    Abstract : In this thesis, low-loss gate-drive solutions and a proposed dv/dt-filter have been investigated with focus on train traction converters with dv/dt constraints.By using the silicon carbide (SiC) junction field-effect transistor (JFET), the switching losses can be significantly reduced compared to the commonly used insulated-gate bipolar transistor (IGBT), but complex gate-driver solutions are required for high utilization in terms of loss reduction.

  2. 7. Electron Tunneling and Field-Effect Devices in mm-Wave Circuits

    Author : Mikael Egard; Fasta tillståndets fysik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; negative differential conductance oscillator; resonant tunneling diode; ultra-wideband; impulse radio; Wavelet generator; MOSFET; nanowire; high frequency characterization; Fysicumarkivet A:2012:Egard;

    Abstract : Short high-frequency electromagnetic pulses, also referred to as wavelets, are considered for use in various short-range impulse based ultra-wideband applications, such as communication, imaging, radar, spectroscopy, and localization. This thesis investigates field-effect and tunneling based semiconductor devices and their operation in millimeter-wave (mm-wave) impulse transceivers. READ MORE

  3. 8. Vertical III-V Nanowires For In-Memory Computing

    Author : Saketh Ram Mamidala; Nanoelektronik; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; RRAM; 1T1R; gate all-around; MOSFET; III-V nanowire; In-memory computing;

    Abstract : In recent times, deep neural networks (DNNs) have demonstrated great potential in various machine learning applications,such as image classification and object detection for autonomous driving. However, increasing the accuracy of DNNsrequires scaled, faster, and more energy-efficient hardware, which is limited by the von Neumann architecture whereseparate memory and computing units lead to a bottleneck in performance.

  4. 9. Vertical III-V/High-k Nanowire MOS Capacitors and Transistors

    Author : Jun Wu; Institutionen för elektro- och informationsteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Nanowire; MOSFET; MOS capacitor; C-V; XPS; MOVPE; InGaAs; InAs; High-k; RF; Track-and-hold circuit;

    Abstract : The emerging nanowire technology in recent years has attracted an increasing interest for high-speed, low-power electronics due to the possibility of a gate-all-around (GAA) geometry enabling aggressive gate length scaling, together with the ease in incorporating high-mobility narrow band gap III-V semiconductors such as InAs on Si substrates. These benefits make vertical nanowire transistors an attractive alternative to the planar devices. READ MORE

  5. 10. Advanced TCAD Simulations and Characterization of Semiconductor Devices
