Silicon carbide is a wide-band-gap semiconductor suitable for high-power high-voltage devices and it has excellent properties for use in photoconductive semiconductor switches (PCSSs). PCSS were fabricated as planar structures on high-resistivity 4H–SiC and tested at dc bias voltages up to 1000 V. The typical maximum…

PURPOSE: Irreversible electroporation (IRE) is a novel minimally invasive therapy for prostate cancer using short electric pulses to ablate prostate tissue. The purpose of this study is to determine the IRE effects in prostate tissue and correlate electrode configuration with the histology of radical prostatectomy (RP…

This paper presents the modeling and simulation results of a superconducting magnetic energy storage (SMES) system for power transmission applications. This is the largest SMES coil ever built for power utility applications and has the following unique design characteristics: 50 MW (96 MW peak), 100 MJ, 24 kV dc inter…

PURPOSE: Irreversible electroporation is a tissue ablation modality that uses high voltage electric energy to induce an increase in cell membrane permeability. This causes destabilization of the existing cellular transmembrane potential leading to cell death, due to the inability to maintain cellular homeostasis. This…

Added powders in a dielectric medium substantially influence the features of electrical discharges due to altered interelectrode conditions during the electrical discharge machining (EDM) process. The main discharge channel is disturbed due to the added powders in dielectric liquid and leads formations of secondary di…

Abstract The partial dielectric‐loaded TEM horn (PDTEM) structure, which maintains ultra‐wideband antenna characteristics over a bandwidth ratio greater than 20:1 in order to improve the impulse‐radiation characteristics for ground penetrating radar systems is described in this paper. It is shown that high‐gain and lo…

High-power photoconductive semiconductor switching devices were fabricated on 4H–SiC. In order to prevent current crowding, reduce the contact resistance, and avoid contact degradation, a highly n-doped GaN subcontact layer was inserted between the contact metal and the high resistivity SiC bulk. This method led to a…
