I work for SemiSouth Laboratories, a manufacturer of high-voltage SiC electronic devices based in the USA (and the first company to introduce a commercially available SiC transistor in 2008). Although I am responsible for business development, I have a broad range of technical research experience in SiC materials science (epitaxial growth and crystal defect characterization) and SiC device design/fabrication/characterization. Because I am more of a materials scientist and semiconductor device physicist, I hope to learn more about power electronics and
motor drives.
My interest in this group is based on the business development part of my job, as I look for opportunities where SemiSouth's SiC devices can be used in harsh environments (> 200 C), to reduce system size, and to improve system efficiency. Feel free to contact me privately, if you're interested.
