Ultra-High-Voltage (7-kV) Bidirectional Flyback Converter Used to Drive Capacitive Actuators

Yves Perriard, Alexis Boegli, Morgan Almanza, Raphaël Johannes Charles Mottet

Dielectric elastomer actuators (DEAs) have extremely advantageous characteristics such as lightness, compactness, flexibility, and large displacements. However, in order to operate, they can require voltages in the order of several thousands of volts. Thus ...

Schmitt trigger-based control strategy for the discharge phase of an ultra-high-voltage bidirectional flyback

Yves Perriard, Alexis Boegli, Raphaël Johannes Charles Mottet

The control strategy to discharge a capacitive load such as a dielectric elastomer actuator charged to several kilo-volts is critical to obtain a safe and reliable actuation. In the case of this publication, an ultra-high voltage bidirectional flyback conv ...

The Influence of O-2 on Positive Streamer Initiation in Supercritical CO2 With Field Ionization Using a 3-D Particle Model

Guang-Yu Sun

In this work, the influence of varying mixing ratios of O-2 on positive streamer initiation in supercritical (SC) CO2 at different applied voltages was investigated using a 3-D particle model. Zener's model was included in the 3-D particle model to calcula ...

High Tuning Range Spiking 1R-1T VO2 Voltage-Controlled Oscillator for Integrated RF and Optical Sensing

Mihai Adrian Ionescu, Teodor Rosca, Fatemeh Qaderi Rahaqi

In this work we propose and experimentally validate a relaxation spiking oscillator architecture with ultra-high tuning range (higher than 400%, from 5KHz to more than 25kHz when the control voltage is varied from 2.5 to 5V) that exploits the reversible me ...

DEA Self-discharge Characterization for Low Duty Cycle Applications

Yves Perriard, Yoan René Cyrille Civet, Thomas Guillaume Martinez, Stefania Maria Aliki Konstantinidi, Raphaël Johannes Charles Mottet

This publication presents the characterization of self discharging Dielectric Elastomer Actuators (DEAs) in order to give place to low duty cycle applications, during which a DEA must remain actuated for long periods of time. DEAs typically present a low c ...

Hard-Switching Losses in Power FETs: The Role of Output Capacitance

Elison de Nazareth Matioli, Armin Jafari, Palliyage Srilak Nirmana Perera, Reza Soleiman Zadeh Ardebili

For certain field-effect transistors (FETs) in soft-switching operation, the large-signal behavior of their output capacitance ( Co ) has shown to deviate considerably from the datasheet values. This can have a significant effect on hard-switching losses i ...
