Using advanced techniques, researchers more-accurately characterized the thermal conductivity of four distinct GaN substrate types along with their defect density, and developed a formula linking the ...

Power density plays a critical role in making power electronic systems smaller, more efficient, and more cost-effective. As power density increases, so does the heat generated inside a device.

Power electronics are experiencing a continuous rise in their power densities. As a consequence, thermal management for today's power semiconductors must be integrated as early as their design phase.

Researchers have solved a long-standing puzzle about lower measured thermal conductivity values of cubic silicon carbide (3C-SiC) bulk crystals in the literature than the structurally more complex ...

Mini LED chips can measure as small as 50μm × 100μm, with pad spacing as narrow as 5-50μm, demanding extreme precision in ...

eGaN FETs and ICs enable very high-density power converter design, owing to their compact size, ultra-fast switching, and low on-resistance. The limiting factor for output power in most high-density ...

Polymers are composed of very large molecules formed by a combination of different monomers (smaller and simpler molecules), which can be natural or synthetic. Polymers are the basis of many ...

Feng's team from Tsinghua University has reported an innovative study on optimizing the thermoelectric performance of SnSe via liquid phase sintering.
