The experimental investigation of suitable settings is outgoing from simulation analysis of hard switching for different transistor structures. For these purposes, the simulation models of power semiconductor switches with high level of validity have been used. After that, the experimental analysis for selected transistor was done with change of parameters that are influencing commutation process of transistor. Target of such kind of analysis was to reach as low switching losses as possible, achieving high power density and efficiency of power system, without utilization of improved switching techniques such as resonant switching. The results confirm that this task is realizable through use of progressive semiconductor devices such as SiC diodes and/or through latest families of MOSFET devices.展开更多

Experimental results show that the grain boundary provides the starting point of morphological instability of the solid-liquid interface. The initial perturbation near the grain boundary is significantly larger than other perturbations on the interface. The initial shape of the interface and the competition between the thermal direction and preferred crystalline orientations determine the subsequent growth pattern selections. The temporal variations of the curvature radius of cell/ridge tips near the grain boundary have also been studied when the instability occurs. This process is divided into three parts. As the pulling velocity increases, dendrites at the grain boundary grow in two different directions to form a bicrystal microstructure. Side branches on either side of the dendrite exhibit different growth patterns.展开更多
