This book provides students and professionals, including pulsed power designers, with a complete overview of advanced semiconductor devices that can improve the performance of pulsed power systems. The development and advancement of pulsed power technology was driven by research into nuclear fusion and military applications. As technology advances, pulsed power systems are finding their way into industrial and commercial applications. The book begins with a detailed discussion of various applications of pulsed power technology with a primary focus on nuclear fusion. Historically, traditional pulsed-power switches (spark gaps, thyratrons, ignitrons, etc.) have been used in such pulsed power systems. A comparative analysis of the cost and performance specifications of wide bandgap solid-state devices and traditional switches and a review of various pulsed-power architectures is provided. The superior properties of advanced wide bandgap material have enabled the development of high-power, high-temperature, and fast-switching semiconductor devices. Based on the successful integration of wide bandgap technology in high-power traction and renewable energy applications, wide bandgap solid-state switches have the potential to have a profound impact on pulsed-power systems; however, this modern technology introduces added complexity with respect to design, fabrication, and packaging of the semiconductor. The concluding chapters of this book will provide readers with an in-depth look into the key aspects and challenges associated with wide bandgap device fabrication and packaging.

About the Author
Dr. Stephen B. Bayne received his Ph.D., MS, and BS in Electrical Engineering from Texas Tech University (TTU). After completing his doctoral studies, he joined the Naval Research Lab (NRL) as an electronics engineer, focusing on designing advanced power electronics systems for space power applications. After two and a half years, Dr. Bayne transferred to the Army Research Lab (ARL), where he was instrumental in developing a high-temperature power electronics program. He was later promoted to Team Lead at ARL, leading a team of five engineers dedicated to power components research. In his capacity as Team Leader, Dr. Bayne was responsible for advanced research in high-temperature and advanced power devices for army applications. After one and a half years in this role, Dr. Bayne was promoted to Branch Chief of the Directed Energy Branch. After eight years at the ARL, Dr. Bayne transitioned to academia, where he currently holds the position of Vice Chancellor for Innovation and Collaboration and Executive Director of the Institute for Critical Infrastructure Security. Dr. Bayne is also the director of the Energy Pillar of the National Wind Institute. He also received the prestigious John R. Bradford Endowed Chair in Engineering. During his academic tenure, Dr. Bayne served as the Chair of Electrical and Computer for two years and the Interim Dean of the College of Engineering at TTU for one year. In this role, he successfully managed a sizable academic community, overseeing 4,800 undergraduate, 1,442 graduate students, and 257 faculty and staff members. Dr. Bayne’s research interests at Texas Tech include Power Electronics, Pulsed Power, Power Semiconductors, and Renewable Energy.
Dr. Bejoy N. Pushpakaran received his bachelor’s degree in Electronics and Communication Engineering from Cochin University of Science and Technology, India and his MS and Ph.D. degrees in Electrical Engineering from Texas Tech University. During his graduate studies, he was with the Center for Pulsed Power and Power Electronics at Texas Tech University, where his research focused on Technology Computer Aided Design (TCAD) modeling and simulation of Silicon Carbide (SiC) power devices and pulsed power evaluation of research-grade and commercial SiC power semiconductor devices. After completing his doctoral studies, Dr. Pushpakaran joined X-FAB Texas as the SiC Process Development Engineer responsible for semiconductor fabrication projects aimed toward the commercialization of SiC technology by enabling the processing and fabrication of SiC power devices on state-of-the-art 6-inch wafers with the support of PowerAmerica institute. After 5 years at X-FAB Texas, Dr. Pushpakaran joined onsemi as the Sr. Principal Applications Engineer in the Automotive Traction Solutions division, where he is currently supporting new product definition, advanced technology research and development, and performance improvement activities, including electrical and thermal evaluation of high-power SiC and IGBT modules for traction inverter application. Dr. Pushpakaran has authored a textbook on TCAD modeling of SiC power devices using Silvaco© ATLAS. His research interests include TCAD modeling, thermal characterization, reliability testing, and pulsed power evaluation of SiC power devices.

Right of withdrawal
Instructions for revocation
Right of withdrawal for the sale of goods
Revocation right for consumers
(A ‘consumer' is any natural person who concludes a legal transaction which, to an overwhelming extent, cannot be attributed to either his commercial or independent professional activities.)
Instructions for revocation
Revocation right
You have the right to revoke this contract within 14 days without specifying any reasons.
The revocation period is 14 days with effect from the day,
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the products, provided you had ordered one or more products within the scope of a standard order and this/these product/products is/are delivered uniformly;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last product, provided you had ordered several products within the scope of a standard order and these products are delivered separately;
-
on which you or a third party nominated by you, which is not the carrier, had taken possession of the last part delivery or the last unit, provided you had ordered a product, which is delivered in several part deliveries or units;
To exercise your right of withdrawal, you must inform us (preigu GmbH & Co. KG, Lengericher Landstr. 19, 49078 Osnabrück, Telephone number: +49 (0) 541 / 580 72 84, E-Mail address: mail@preigu.de) by means of a clear declaration (e.g. a letter sent by post, or an e-mail) of your decision to withdraw from this contract. You can use the attached model withdrawal form for this purpose, which is, however, not mandatory.
You can also exercise your right of withdrawal online by clicking on a button labelled accordingly (such as ‘Withdraw from contract' or similar) on the AbeBooks/ZVAB website. If you use this online function, you will immediately receive a confirmation of receipt on a durable medium (e.g. via email) containing information on the content of the withdrawal notice, as well as the date and time of its receipt.
In order to safeguard the revocation period, it is sufficient that you send the notification about the exercise of the revocation right before the expiry of the revocation period.
Consequences of the revocation
If you revoke this contract, we shall repay all the payments, which we received from you, including the delivery costs (with the exception of additional costs, which arise from that fact that you selected a form of delivery other than the most reasonable standard delivery offered by us), immediately and at the latest within 14 days from the day on which we received the notification about the revocation of this contract from you. We use the same means of payment, which you had originally used during the original transaction, for this repayment unless expressly agreed otherwise with you; you will not be charged any fees owing to this repayment.
We can refuse the repayment until the products are returned to us or until you have furnished evidence that you have sent the products back to us, depending on whichever is earlier.
You must return or transfer the products to us immediately and, in any case, at the latest within 14 days with effect from the day on which you inform us of the revocation of this contract. The deadline is maintained if you send the products before the expiry of the 14 day deadline.
You bear the direct costs for returning the products.
You must pay for any depreciation of the products only if this depreciation can be attributed to any handling with you that was not necessary for checking the condition, features and functionality of the products.
