AlGaN/GaN Nanowires: from Electron Transport to RF Applications

Giovanni Santoruvo

Gallium Nitride (GaN) and all III-Nitride compounds have revolutionized the world with the development of the blue light emitting diode (LED). In addition, GaN-based epi-structures, such as AlGaN/GaN, enable the fabrication of high electron mobility transi ...

Properties of Direct-Time and Reversed-Time Transfer Functions to Locate Disturbances along Power Transmission Lines

Mario Paolone, Zhaoyang Wang

The paper discusses specific frequency-domain properties of the electromagnetic time reversal (EMTR) method applied to locate faults and, more in general, disturbances in power networks. Specifically, we investigate the properties of two transfer functions ...

Gas breakdown mitigation in satellite slip rings

Ivo Furno, Alan Howling, Fabio Avino, Paul Jeroen Laureis Martens

Direct current (DC) gas breakdown is experimentally investigated for high-voltage circular conductors and insulators that reproduce the main features of a satellite slip ring. Breakdown voltages are measured in the pressure range 10 ...

Beyond Phasors: Modeling of Power System Signals Using the Hilbert Transform

Mario Paolone, Asja Derviskadic, Guglielmo Frigo

Modern power systems are at risk of largely reducing the inertia of generation assets and prone to experience extreme dynamics. The consequence is that, during electromechanical transients triggered by large contingencies, transmission of electrical power ...
