  1. 1. Radiation Effects on GaN-based HEMTs for RF and Power Electronic Applications

    University essay from KTH/Tillämpad fysik

    Author : Wilhelm Holmberg; [2023]
    Keywords : High Electron Mobility Transistor; HEMT; Gallium Nitride; GaN; Silicon Carbide; SiC; Proton Radiation; Galliumnitrid; GaN; Kiselkarbid; SiC; Kisel; Si; HEMT; Transistor; Protonstrålning;

    Abstract : GaN-HEMTs (Gallium Nitride-based High Electron Mobility Transistors) have, thanks to the large band gap of GaN, electrical properties that are suitable for applications of high electrical voltages, high currents, and fast switching. The large band gap also gives GaN-HEMTs a high resistance to radiation. READ MORE

  2. 2. Analysis of high-voltage low-current DC/DC converters for electrohydrodynamic pumps

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för elektroteknik

    Author : Sigge Axelsson; Jonas Gartner; Axel Stafström; [2023]
    Keywords : high-voltage; low-current; low-power; DC DC; DC-DC; high-gain; converter; electrohydrodynamic pump; EHD; transformerless converter; Royer-based converter; resonant Royer oscillator; Cockroft-Walton voltage multiplier; CWVM; voltage multiplier; series-connected positive-negative voltage multiplier; SPNVM; planar air-core transformer; planar transformer; high-freqency Royer-based converter; overcurrent protection; LT8331; gallium nitride; GaN; planar PCB-integrated transformers;

    Abstract : Moving parts cause vibrations and tend to wear out. In applications where maintenance is complicated, solutions without moving parts are therefore advantageous. Electrohydrodynamic pumps are such a solution. Instead of mechanical propulsion, they use strong electric fields to induce movement in a dielectric cooling liquid. READ MORE

  3. 3. Sputtered Transparent Contact Layers for Bifacial and Tandem Solar Cells

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Solcellsteknik

    Author : Klara Kiselman; [2022]
    Keywords : Solar cells; ITO; indium doped tin oxide; bifacial cell; tandem cell; transparent conductive oxides;

    Abstract : A key to solar cells with lower environmental impact is higher efficiency and reduced material usages. Bifacial solar cells may have a higher efficiency as light can enter from two directions and tandem solar cells may use a larger part of the incoming solar spectrum, increasing the efficiency.

  4. 4. Characterisation of GaN HEMTs on Different Substrates for Power Electronics Applications

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Hithiksha Krishna Murthy; [2022]
    Keywords : Gallium nitrate; High Mobility Electron Transistor; Silicon carbide; Silicon; Sapphire; substrates; power electronics;

    Abstract : GaN-based High Electron Mobility Transistors (HEMT) are appealing because of their large breakdown field, high saturation velocity, and superior thermal conductivity. They work at high temperature without much degradation. HEMTs have a few drawbacks despite many positives. The cost of developing GaN HEMTs on a native substrate is high. READ MORE

  5. 5. Investigation of Gallium Nitirde High Electron Mobility Transistors

    University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

    Author : Shikhar Arvind; [2021]
    Keywords : Gallium Nitride; High electron mobility transistor; leakage current; in-situ Silicon Nitride; power electronics;

    Abstract : Gallium Nitride (GaN) based transistors have been in the spotlight for power electronics due to promising properties like high bandgap, high breakdown field, high electron mobility, and high-frequency applications. While there are some commercial devices based on these transistors available, there is still room for improvement in these devices for widespread usage. READ MORE
