Desertification of semi-arid grasslands is a serious problem for economic development and ecological preservation. Using the Hunshandake Sandy Lands as an example, we present an overview of monitoring of land desertification using two different data sources including TM and MODIS data. The driving mechanisms of Hunshandake Sandy Land desertification are also discussed.
Traditional IGBT turn-on loss evaluation methods are curve fitting of double pulse test data without insight of IGBT turn-on process. This paper proposed an analytical evaluation method of IGBT turn-on loss. In the proposed method, a qualitative IGBT switching waveform and an IGBT switching trajectory in output characteristics are used to analyze IGBT turn-on process. The detailed expressions for...
This paper presents the extraction of common mode (CM) and differential mode (DM) inductances of a common mode choke (CMC) using 3D finite element method (FEM). For optimal performance of the CMC, the effects of CM and DM currents on the magnetic core saturation are investigated. As the parasitic capacitance of a CMC is a critical parameter that affects its high frequency performance, the parasitic...
The trend towards SiC-based high power density converter requires to drive SiC MOSFET with high-speed switching. However, it tends to aggravate dv/dt effect due to the impact of parasitic parameters, resulting in shoot-through and high device stress in the half bridge configuration. In this work, a novel gate assisted circuit is proposed to eliminate shoot-through issue without compromise on switching...
The reactive power in power converter with inductive load (motor drive e.g.) requires a current commutation path for the freewheeling current. Due to the high voltage drop of body diode of SiC MOSFET, a SiC Schottky diode is normally recommended as the anti-parallel freewheeling diode for SiC MOSFET to suppress the conduction of body diode. However, since the MOSFET can work as synchronous rectifier,...
To drive SiC power module with high-speed switching, the stray inductance becomes a key factor in converter design. In this work, the stray inductances of module and peripheral circuits are investigated by simulation and measurement. With the loop stray inductance of 29.2 nH, the module is tested up to 800 V and 50 A with insignificant EMI issues of ringing and overshoot. And the dv/dt ratios at turn-off...
As SiC MOSFET is moving towards high current rating through parallel devices in a module, the ability to switch it fast with minimum switching loss becomes a new challenge. Amid this new challenge, power converter designers need to deal with more demanding measurement method to obtain correct switching waveforms. Switching waveforms are an important asset for converter designers because they can reveal...

The high-speed switching of SiC MOSFET allows power converter to operate with higher frequency and lower switching loss. However, it tends to aggravate dv/dt effect due to the impact of parasitic parameters, resulting in shoot-through and high device stress in the half bridge configuration. In this study, a compact and high-speed gate driver is developed and optimized for SiC half bridge module. The...

This paper evaluates different passive filter topologies of the grid-connected high power density converter (HPDC) for the purpose power quality control and electromagnetic interference (EMI) reduction. The harmonics generated by the switching circuits in the HPDC affect power quality at lower frequency as well as EMI at higher frequency. Various common passive filter topologies are carefully evaluated...
