In spite of the dominance of ac technology for the vast majority of power transmission and distribution since the late 19th century, the past decades have seen an increase in use of dc electrical power. In particular, this has been the case both in high vo ...

Electrostatically confined quantum dots in semiconductors hold the promise to achieve high scalability and reliability levels for practical implementation of solid-state qubits where the electrochemical potentials of each quantum dot can be independently c ...

Environmental concerns are leading to a fast transition in electric power systems towards replacing fossil fuel and nuclear generation with renewable generation. This transition has two significant implications for electric power systems: 1-The capacity o ...

Electroactive polymers show promising characteristic such as lightness, compactness, flexibility and large displacements making them a candidate for application in cardiac assist devices. This revives the need for quasi- square wave voltage supply switchin ...

In Part I, a method for the Harmonic Power-Flow (HPF) study of three-phase power grids with Converter-Interfaced Distributed Energy Resources (CIDERs) is proposed. The method is based on generic and modular representations of the grid and the CIDERs, and e ...

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 ...

Intense work studying the ballistic regime of electron transport in two-dimensional systems based on semiconductors and graphene had been thought to have established most of the key experimental facts of the field. In recent years, however, additional form ...

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 ...

Hybrid modular multilevel converter control and design for pumped hydro storage plants is presented, addressing application-specific shortcoming of conventional back-to-back half-bridge modular multilevel converter: high common-mode-voltage machine stress. ...

In the available literature, including reference books on the topic, the spectral analysis of voltage waveforms obtained through the use of pulse-width modulation relies on the assumption of an ideally flat voltage across the DC link of a considered switch ...
