My research work is primarily focussed on high voltage 4H-SiC power devices (JFETs, MOSFETs and IGBTs) for medium voltage (>6kV) applications.
Highlights:
- Design, fabrication and device modeling of 4H-SiC n-IGBTs (>15kV)
- Electrical switching and conduction characterization of high voltage 4H-SiC power devices
- Active gate drive techniques for high voltage 4H-SiC power devices
- Medium voltage power converters (>6kV) using modern high voltage 4H-SiC power devices
- High bandwidth current sensing and current control techniques
