Biography

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) and 4H-SiC Power MOSFETs
-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
