Single‐switch coupled‐inductors‐based high step‐up converter with reduced voltage stress
This paper proposes a non‐isolated DC‐DC high step‐up converter. To achieve a high voltage conversion ratio and overcome the problems related to near unity duty‐cycle of the conventional boost converter in high step‐up applications, coupled‐inductors ...

Doping-Less SiC p-i-n Diode: Design and Investigation
We introduce a novel high-voltage SiC p-i-n diode considering a charge plasma approach. This technique facilitates the formation of the anode and the cathode regions within the silicon carbide without requiring any impurity doping by taking advantage of ...

An assessment of contact metallization for high power and high temperature diamond Schottky devices [PDF]
Different metals W, Al, Ni and Cr were evaluated as Schottky contacts on the same p-type lightly boron doped homoepitaxial diamond layer. The current–voltage (I–V) characteristics, the series resistance and the thermal stability are discussed in the ...

Interplay of bulk and interface effects in the electric-field driven transition in magnetite [PDF]
Contact effects in devices incorporating strongly-correlated electronic materials are comparatively unexplored. We have investigated the electrically-driven phase transition in magnetite (100) thin films by four-terminal methods.

A Snapback-Free and Low Turn-Off Loss 15 kV 4H–SiC IGBT with Multifunctional P-Floating Layer
In this paper, a 4H–SiC IGBT with a multifunctional P-floating layer (MP-IGBT) is proposed and investigated by Silvaco TCAD simulations. Compared with the conventional 4H–SiC field stop IGBT (FS-IGBT), the MP-IGBT structure features a P-floating layer ...

Piezoelectric vibration energy harvesting: A connection configuration scheme to increase operational range and output power [PDF]
For a conventional monolithic piezoelectric transducer (PT) using a full-bridge rectifier, there is a threshold voltage that the open-circuit voltage measured across the PT must attain prior to any transfer of energy to the storage capacitor at the ...
