Estimation of Charge Transfer During Long Continuing Currents in Natural Downward Flashes Using Single‐Station E‐Field Measurements

Wolfgang Schulz, Hannes Kohlmann

The amount of charge transferred to ground during long continuing currents in natural downward flashes can be obtained either through direct current measurements or using remote electromagnetic fields, if direct measurements are not feasible. In this study ...

Säntis lightning research facility: a summary of the first ten years and future outlook

Marcos Rubinstein

The Säntis Tower was instrumented in May 2010 to measure currents of lightning discharges striking the structure. Since then, the system has been recurrently updated and expanded. Presently, data associated with lightning striking the tower are collected a ...

Hierarchical tensile structures with ultralow mechanical dissipation

Tobias Kippenberg, Alberto Beccari, Amirali Arabmoheghi, Nils Johan Engelsen, Sergey Fedorov

Structural hierarchy is found in myriad biological systems and has improved man-made structures ranging from the Eiffel tower to optical cavities. In mechanical resonators whose rigidity is provided by static tension, structural hierarchy can reduce the di ...

Modeling the electrical characteristics of InGaN/GaN LED structures based on experimentally-measured defect characteristics

Nicolas Grandjean, Jean-François Carlin, Camille Haller

Defects can significantly modify the electro-optical characteristics of InGaN light-emitting diodes (LEDs); however, modeling the impact of defects on the electrical characteristics of LEDs is not straightforward. In this paper, we present an extensive inv ...

Inflection Phenomenon in Cryogenic MOSFET Behavior

Christian Enz, Farzan Jazaeri, Arnout Lodewijk M Beckers

This brief reports the analytical modeling and measurements of the inflection in the MOSFET transfer characteristics at cryogenic temperatures. Inflection is the inward bending of the drain current versus gate voltage, which reduces the current in weak and ...

Smooth Power Direction Transition of a Bidirectional LLC Resonant Converter for DC Transformer Applications

Drazen Dujic, Jakub Kucka

The bidirectional LLC resonant converter operated at fixed switching frequency is a preferable candidate for a true dc transformer that does not actively control the power flow. This is due to its naturally stiff voltage ratio regardless of the imposed loa ...
