We find that the generation current peak decreases as the stress time increases. We ascribe this finding to the dominating oxide trapped electrons that reduce the effective drain bias, lowering the maximal generation rate. The density of the effective trapped electrons affecting the effective drain bias is calculated with our model.展开更多

Outcomes from a recent project funded by the Sixth European Union Framework Programme （FP6）, Project ＂Upwind＂ concluded that larger offshore wind turbines （i.e., 〉 10 MW） are feasible and cost effective. It will be beneficial for such future large scale renewable energy power generators （i.e., large offshore turbines） and plant （i.e., large offshore wind farms） to have a dedicated high efficiency, robust, flexible and low cost power collection, transmission and distribution technology. Proposed in this paper is a compact and effective hybrid HVDC （high voltage direct current） transformer that allows realisation of a highly robust and financially rewarding next generation multi-terminal HVDC system for future offshore renewable energy power plant. This concept, potentially, allows the elimination or minimisation of the need for a centralised local offshore HVDC platform or substation in each wind farm, solar farm, or tidal farm. This paper discusses the study outcome of the proposed hybrid HVDC transformer and the application of a multi-terminal HVDC system in the renewable energy industry, compared to the existing HVAC and VSC （voltage source converters） type HVDC systems.展开更多
