Adoption of wide bandgap technology in hybrid/electric vehicles-opportunities and challenges
Abstract
Wide bandgap devices are widely believed to be the enabler of the next generation power electronic systems due to their superior characteristics such as low loss, high speed, and high temperature operating capabilities. In the automotive industry, wide bandgap devices will also be a game changer in many aspects of the hybrid/electric vehicles, most notably in the electric propulsion and battery charging systems. This paper will present a comprehensive review of the wide bandgap power switching devices and their adoption in hybrid/electric vehicles.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
