Wireless sensor nodes (WSNs) are generally powered by batteries, which results in a substantial limitation to the places where the nodes can be installed, to the maximum number of deployable devices, and to the node lifetime. To meet the demand for Interne ...

The efficiency of an on-body wireless power transfer system for implant powering is defined by how the electromagnetic energy interacts with the lossy, heterogeneous, and dispersive body tissues. The objective of this study is to discuss the methodology an ...

Low ON-resistance of advanced superjunction (SJ) and GaN-on-Si transistors is of great importance in power converters, however, the anomalous loss in their output capacitance (C OSS ) severely limits their performance. In this work, we use an energy-orient ...

The recent trend of an increasing share of renewable energy sources in modern power systems, as well as the integration of power electronics equipment, is shaping the requirements for stable grid infrastructure. These requirements mainly come from the stab ...

Asset tracking involving accurate location and transportation data is highly suited to wireless sensor networks (WSNs) featuring battery-less nodes that can be deployed in virtually any environment and require little or no maintenance. In response to the g ...

Nanowire-based devices can potentially be of use in a variety of electronic applications, from ultrascaled digital circuits to 5G communication networks. However, the devices are typically restricted to low-power applications due to the relatively low elec ...

In the Internet of Things (IoT) era, Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are rapidly increasing in terms of relevance and pervasiveness thanks to their notable real-time monitoring performance across several fields, including industrial, domestic, military, bi ...

The DC-DC flyback converter is one of the most suitable topologies to generate the voltages necessary to operate Dielectric Elastomer Actuators. Voltages which can range from 5 to 20 kV. Previous works demonstrated through experiments the flyback’s ability ...

Maximizing the efficiency and power density of dc-dc converters demands parallel optimizations in design and control, especially for variable-frequency converters operating over wide frequency ranges. This work presents the full-scale optimization of a kil ...

Gallium nitride (GaN) power devices are employed in an increasing number of applications thanks to their excellent performance. Nevertheless, their potential for cryogenic applications, such as space, aviation, and superconducting systems, has not yet been ...

In this work, we report on the switching performance of AlGaN/GaN lateral Tri-Anode SBDs. The Tri-Anode architecture leads to a more than 50% reduction in the device charge with respect to conventional planar structure, confirmed both by capacitive and rev ...
