Description: The relentless advancement in high-power electronics has driven the need for innovative materials and new device architectures. This special edition delves readers into the cutting-edge developments and challenges in the field, with a focus on silicon carbide (SiC) technology. The edition provides a comprehensive overview of the critical aspects of SiC MOSFETs, highlighting their superior switching characteristics and robustness, etc., compared to traditional silicon-based devices. Collected articles not only focus on the theoretical underpinnings but also provide practical insights for engineers in design and real-world applications.

Description: The International Conference on Silicon Carbide and Related Materials (ICSCRM) is the most important technical conference series on silicon carbide (SiC) and related materials. Started in Washington, D.C. in 1987, the conference series developed into a bi-annual global forum on SiC from its crystal growth to the reliability in application. After five conferences in the U.S., ICSCRM has been held every two years, alternating between USA, Europe, and Japan. The last three Conferences were held in Giardini Naxos, Italy (2015), Washington, D.C. , USA (2017), and Kyoto, Japan (2019). Due to the pandemic situation in 2020 and 2021, the alternating European edition, the 13th ECSCRM, has been held in 2021, and the 19th ICSCRM has been postponed to 2022. The 19th edition of ICSCRM will be the last of its kind – starting in 2023, the conference series will be united with the European edition. It will form an annual event under the well-established name ICSCRM and a new rotation schedule integrating the SiC communities worldwide.

Description: Volume is indexed by Thomson Reuters CPCI-S (WoS).
Wide-bandgap semiconductors, such as silicon carbide and group-III nitrides, are attracting increased attention as promising materials for high-power, high-frequency and high-temperature electronics use, as well as for short-wavelength light-emitters.

Description: Volume is indexed by Thomson Reuters CPCI-S (WoS).
Silicon Carbide (SiC), Gallium Nitride (GaN) and Diamond are examples of wide-bandgap semiconductors having chemical, electrical and optical properties which make them very attractive for the fabrication of high-power and high-frequency electronic devices, as well as light-emitters and sensors which have to operate under harsh conditions.

Description: Wide-bandgap semiconductors such as silicon carbide (SiC) and group-III Nitrides have attracted increasing attention as favored materials short-listed for use in new electronic devices; especially those destined for high-power, high-frequency and/or high-temperature applications, as well as short-wavelength light-emitters. This two-volume set contains >illustrated transcripts of papers presented at the International Conference on Silicon Carbide and Related Materials 2001 (ICSCRM2001), held in the Fall of 2001 at Tsukuba, Japan. This timely conference was held in the very first year of the 21st century; an era in which SiC devices are going to find a real market. More than 500 contributors; both academic scientists and device engineers, from 20 countries, discussed and exchanged ideas extensively during the five days of the conference.

Description: Silicon carbide is the semiconductor of choice for new applications including electric power devices, high frequency devices, high temperature devices, and radiation resistant devices. The III-Nitride compound semiconductors are well suited for optoelectronics and are promising materials for high frequency devices. This two-volume set contains written versions of papers presented at the International Conference on Silicon Carbide and Related Materials – 1999 (ICSCRM’99), held October 10-15, 1999, at Research Triangle Park, North Carolina.
