Abstract

Wide Band Gap (WBG) devices such as Silicon Carbide (SiC) and Gallium Nitride (GaN) have been widely considered as the next generation of power semiconductors. To unlock their full potential, design of power converters needs to be revisited and modified. This talk will introduce novel technologies in switching modulation, magnetic components, and converter integration which transfer the advantageous physical properties of WBG devices into high efficiency and high power density energy conversion. Emerging appliciations enabled by WBG devices such as wireless power transfer for EVs and ultra-high power density 48V DC systems for datacentres will also be introduced, Examples and results used for the aforementioned technologies and applications are exclusively from the Applied Power Electronics Laboratory in Cambridge.
