Abstract |
GaN based devices offer many perspectives for power conversion applications. To demonstrate the capabilities of III-nitride components, we studied the switching behavior of a GaN DHFET device. We show that the combination of a low input capacitance, a low on-resistance and a high breakdown voltage is the key advantage for GaN components. Moreover the possibility to grow GaN on Si substrates allows for a cost effective solution for power conversion. |
