Wide Band Gap Semiconductor Devices for Power Electronics
It is worldwide accepted today that a real breakthrough in the Power Electronics field may mainly come from the development and use of Wide Band Gap (WBG) semiconductor devices. WBG semiconductors such as SiC, GaN, and diamond show superior material properties, which allow operation at high-switching speed, high-voltage and high-temperature. These unique performances provide a qualitative chang...
متن کاملAdvances in Wide-Band Gap Semiconductor Based Photocathode Devices for Low Light Level Applications
The basic requirement for a imaging low-light level system (one capable of single photon counting) is that the device has low dark current. Photocathode based devices have the advantage over solid state devices in this regard as the dark current is inherently low. A further requirement for UV detectors is the necessity to suppress the sensitivity in the red, and wide-band gap semi-conductors ll...
متن کاملMetal-nitride-oxide-semiconductor light-emitting devices for general lighting.
The potential for application of silicon nitride-based light sources to general lighting is reported. The mechanism of current injection and transport in silicon nitride layers and silicon oxide tunnel layers is determined by electro-optical characterization of both bi- and tri-layers. It is shown that red luminescence is due to bipolar injection by direct tunneling, whereas Poole-Frenkel ioniz...
متن کاملSemiconductor Nanomembrane-Based Light-Emitting and Photodetecting Devices
Heterogeneous integration between silicon (Si), III-V group material and Germanium (Ge) is highly desirable to achieve monolithic photonic circuits. Transfer-printing and stacking between different semiconductor nanomembranes (NMs) enables more versatile combinations to realize high-performance light-emitting and photodetecting devices. In this paper, lasers, including vertical and edge-emittin...
متن کاملPhotonic Band Gap Materials: A Semiconductor for Light
Light in certain engineered dielectric microstructures can flow in a way similar to electrical currents in semiconductor chips. These microstructures represent a new frontier in the field of optics. They provide a foundation for the development of novel micro-photonic devices and the integration of such devices into an optical microchip. Glossary: Photonics: the science of moulding the flow of ...
