SILICON CARBIDE POWER ELECTRONICS TECHNOLOGY FOR ENERGY EFFICIENT DEVICES

European Commission Project #: 604057

SPEED Project pools seventeen manufacturers and researchers from nine European countries, who will work together for three years, with a common goal: the development of the next generation of power semiconductors based on SiC with specific applications in wind converters and the new generation of Solid State Transformers (SSTs).

Researchers from Electron Device Group, Dept. of Microelectronics, Czech Technical University in Prague participate in Work Packages (WPs) dealing with development of novel SiC devices:

WP1:  Advanced SiC Materials: Substrates and Epi

WP3: High-Voltage SiC Device and Packaging Technologies for Power Transmission Applications
