A semiconductor device for measuring ultra low currents down to the level of single electrons or low voltages comprises a first and a second voltage supply terminal (1, 2), an input terminal (3) for receiving an electrical current or being supplied with a ...
Many electric power generators use gas turbines as power sources. Typically they are connected to the turbines through a mechanical gearbox in order to adapt their synchronous speed to the optimal rotation speed of the turbine, which is very often much hig ...
The multilevel converters allow generating a voltage waveform whose magnitude and quality are higher than those of conventional converters. They are devoted to medium and high-voltage, high-switching-frequency applications. Among the series connected cell ...
In the last years, static power converters have become widely used in various applications. They can be found in domestic applications, railways, urban and ship transport, and even in several industrial systems. Some of these applications require a high or ...
The self-switching principle is a synthesis of synchronous type switching and switch inner protection mechanisms. Both switch ON and switch OFF are performed on the base of current and voltage measurement across the switch. Applied to an active bidirection ...
In the transportation field, the empty weight of the vehicle has to be as light as possible in order to have the highest energetic efficiency. For onboard storage electrical systems, dc/dc converters are usually used to control the power flows in the vehic ...
We have fabricated a type of unique single-walled carbon nanotube field-effect transistor, in which the channel length is only 90 nm and aluminum and gold are used as its drain and source electrodes, respectively. The channel conductance oscillations cause ...
This paper presents the operation principle and the properties of a single-phase DC-AC converter with medium frequency transformer and soft commutation. The influence of the non-dissipative snubber capacitor and the transformer parasitic components for ZVS ...
Several works suggest the imminent appearance of bidirectional active devices. The promised performances go in the direction of a reverse recovery effects reduction and efficiency improvement. Our purpose is the study of an active management for switches t ...
This paper deals with cascade multilevel inverters. It focuses on asymmetrical topologies where the cell input voltages are of different values. These hybrid topologies might be interesting for several applications. One of the main benefit is the high reso ...
