EEE Poster - Hostile environment electronics
Decription
Our silicon carbide electronic devices have been demonstrated at temperatures beyond 600°C, which opens up the possibility of monitoring the inside of volcanic craters to predict eruptions or inside jet engines to enable the monitoring of combustion processes to reduce pollution. Our work also encompasses the development of silicon carbide power electronic devices to improve the efficiency of converters.
