[0002] With the continuous growth of global electricity demand, the development of renewable energy sources such as solar, wind, and geothermal energy has received high attention from countries around the world. To meet the needs of end-use applications at different power levels, various power conversion systems have emerged. Over the past few decades, significant breakthroughs have been made in improving power conversion efficiency and reducing costs. The development of power electronic devices has spanned nearly 60 years, and each introduction of a new type of power electronic device has driven profound changes in the industry.

[0003] High-voltage power devices are core components of high-voltage, high-power electronic equipment, and their performance directly determines the key performance indicators of the equipment. In the high-voltage field, early semiconductor devices were mainly based on first-generation materials (such as germanium). Ge and silicon Si ) and second-generation compound semiconductor materials (such as GaAs , GaP , InP (etc.). However, as market demands for higher current capacity, higher breakdown voltage, and higher packaging density continue to increase, the performance of silicon-based devices has approached its physical limits. Therefore, developing new semiconductor materials has become an inevitable direction for technological development. Third-generation wide-bandgap semiconductor materials such as silicon carbide... SiC and gallium nitride GaN With their unique physical properties, including a large bandgap, high breakdown electric field, and high thermal conductivity, wide-bandgap power devices exhibit excellent performance in applications requiring high temperature, high frequency, and high voltage. They also possess advantages such as low conduction loss and high current density, making them a hot research area in semiconductor technology. The application of these wide-bandgap power devices can not only improve the efficiency and reliability of power conversion but also effectively reduce the size of equipment, promoting the efficient use of electrical energy and green development.

[0004] However, faster switching speeds and higher energy densities mean larger [capacity / efficiency]. dv / dt This can have a negative impact when the device is switched on or off. SiC Crosstalk between devices within a module is a critical issue. It can interfere with the operation of complementary devices. For example, during the turn-off period of a complementary device, crosstalk can cause a large parasitic voltage to be generated through Miller capacitance coupling when it should be turned off, leading to false turn-on and triggering bridge arm shoot-through. Although this shoot-through is short-lived, it generates significant power consumption, and the instantaneous large current can potentially cause device breakdown. Over time, this will accelerate device aging and reduce device lifespan.
