Abstract:The load cycling capability of novel power semiconductors is an important aspect when estimating their lifetime in field service. The Power Cycling Test (PCT) is the standard test to evaluate the lifetime of a semiconductor device under thermo-mechanical stress. PCTs are typically performed at temperature swings (ΔT) much higher than common operating conditions, to obtain results within a reasonable time. In this work, the PCT capability of gallium nitride (GaN) and gallium oxide (Ga2O3) lateral transistors is… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
