Silicon Carbide in Solar Energy
SiC withstands higher temperatures and voltages than silicon, making it a more reliable and versatile inverter component.
Fuji Electric High-Performance Hybrid SiC Modules Equipped
*Fuji Electric Hybrid SiC modules were applied in the traction converters on the N700 Series Shinkansen (a joint development with Central Japan Railway Company).
2nd-Generation SiC-SBD
Figure 2 shows the structure of the 1st-generation SiC-SBD and the 2nd-generation SiC-SBD. Both of them have a junction barrier Schottky (JBS) structure with a p+ layer on the device surface, and have
Powering the Electric Future with a New Generation of
