본 논문은 ZSI에서 shoot-through 시간을 효율적으로 제어하기 위한 변형 공간전압 변조방식으로 3종류를 제시하였다. 3개의 변형 공간전압 변조방식에 대한 스위칭 패턴과 shoot-through 시간변화에 대한 변조신호의 변화를 분석한다. Shoot-through 시간 제어 범위와 함께 스위칭 패턴 및 변조신호의 평형성 등을 고려하여 최적의 변형 공간전압 변조방식을 선정하였으며, 32비트 DSP를 사용한 실험을 통하여 그 타당성을 확인한다.

This paper proposes a new two-stage Z-source converter (TSZC). The purpose of the proposed system is to obtain the ac voltage with a maximum boost voltage for fuel cell applications as a renewable energy source. In order to provide a continuous current path, a switching strategy for the dc-ac ZSI and ac-ac ZSC of the proposed system was used. The operation principle, analysis and simulation results of 1.2 kW fuel cell stack were also presented.

Z-source inverters (ZSI) are used to realize both DC voltage boost and DC-AC inversion in single stage with a reduced number of power switching devices. A traditional MPPT control algorithm provides a shoot-through interval which should be inserted in the switching waveforms of the inverter to output the maximum power to the Z-network. At this instant, the voltage across the Z-source capacitor is equal to the output voltage of a PV array at the maximum power point (MPP). The control of the Z-source capacitor voltage beyond the MPP voltage of a PV array is not facilitated in traditional MPPT algorithms. This paper presents a unified MPPT control algorithm to simultaneously achieve MPPT as well as Z-source capacitor voltage control. Development and implementation of the proposed algorithm and a comparison with traditional results are discussed. The effectiveness of the proposed unified MPPT control strategy is implemented in Matlab/Simulink software and verified by experimental results.

The paper proposes a close loop control algorithm for Z-source inverter. The algorithm is realized by PWM duty ratio control in order to improve the output voltage to it's desired level. The controller consist of the output voltage PID controller and DC input voltage P controller. Using the DQ coordinate transformation simplify the controller design. The PSIM simulation results verify the validity by means of comparing the system with or without compensation and estimating if the system has output consistency function when ZSI's load and input voltage value changing.

This paper deals with an algorithm for controlling ac output voltage of Z-source inverter using Modified SVPWM (abbreviated as MSVPWM). Unlike the conventional space vector pulse width modulation, MSVPWM has one extra shoot-through zero time $T_{sh}$. During shoot-through zero time, both switches in a leg are conducted simultaneously in order to boost inverter output voltage to any desirable value regardless the line voltage. The algorithm to control linearly the capacitor voltage is suggested to improve the performance of Z-source inverter system. The performance of Z-source inverter using above algorithms is demonstrated in simulation results using PSIM. Index terms-Z-source inverter (ZSI), shoot-through time, three-phase carrier-based PWM, space vector PWM (SVPWM), modified space vector PWM (MSVPWM).

In this paper, the operation of current-fed quasi-Z-source inverter (QZSI) with buck-boost function, improved reliability, and regeneration capability is analyzed. The modified space modulation technique for controlling effectively both shoot-through time and zero voltage time is suggested. The simulation result is carried out in order to verify the performance of proposed technique.

This paper presents a current mode integrated control technique (CM-ICT) using a modified voltage space vector modulation (MSVM) for Z-source inverter (ZSI) fed induction motor drives. MSVM provides a better DC voltage boost in the dc-link, a wide range of AC output voltage controllability and a better line harmonic profile. In a voltage mode ICT (VM-ICT), the outer voltage feedback loop alone is designed and it enforces the desired line voltage to the motor drive. An integrated control technique (ICT), with an inner current feedback loop is proposed in this paper for the purpose of line current limiting and soft operation of the drive. The current command generated by the PI controller and limiter in the outer voltage feedback loop, is compared with the actual line current, and the error is processed through the PI controller and a limiter. This limiter ensures that, the voltage control signal to the Z-source inverter is constrained to a safe level. The rise and fall of the control signal voltage are made to be gradual, so as to protect the induction motor drive and the Z-source inverter from transients. The single stage controller arrangement of the proposed CM-ICT offers easier compensation. Analysis, Matlab/Simulink simulations, and experimental results have been presented to validate the proposed technique.

III-nitride 게 물질들은 blue와 UV 영역의 LED, LD와 같은 광소자뿐만 아니라 HBT, FET와 같은 전자소자로도 널리 응용되고 있다. 이와 같은 물질을 이용한 소자를 제작할 경우 낮은 저항의 ohmic contact은 필수적이다. p-GaN의 ohmic contact은 아직까지 많은 문제점을 내포하고 있다. 그 중의 하나는 높은 doping 농도(>1018cm-3)의 p-GaN 박막을 성장하기가 어렵다는 것이며, 또 하나는 낮은 접촉 비저항을 얻기 위해선 7.5eV 이상의 큰 재가 function을 지닌 금속을 선택해야 한다. 그러나 5.5eV 이상의 재가 function을 갖는 금속은 존재하지 않는다. 위와 같은 문제점들은 p-GaN의 접촉 비저항이 10-2$\Omega$cm2이상의 높은 값을 갖게 만들고 있으며 이에 대한 해결방안으로는 고온의 열처리를 통하여 p-GaN와 금속사이에서 화학적 반응을 일으킴으로써 표면근처에서 캐리어농도를 증가시키고, 캐리어 수송의 형태가 tunneling 형태로 일어날 수 있도록 하는 tunneling current mechaism을 이용하는 것이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 MOCVD로 성장된 p-GaN 박막을 Mg의 activation을 증가시키기 위해 N2 분위기에서 4분간 80$0^{\circ}C$에서 RTA로 annealing을 하였으며, ohmic 접촉을 위한 금속으로 높은 재가 function과 좋은 adhesion 그리고 낮은 자체저항을 가지고 있는 Ni/ZSi/Ni/Au를 ohmic metal로 하여 contact한 후에 $700^{\circ}C$에서 1분간 rapid thermal annealing (RTA) 처리를 했다. contact resistance를 계산하기 위해 circular-TLM method를 이용하여 I-V 특성을 조사하였고, interface interaction을 알아보기 위해 SEM과 EDX, 그리고 XRD로 분석하였다. 또한 추가적으로 Si 계열의 compound metal인 PdSi와 PtSi에 대한 I-V 특성도 조사하여 비교하여 보았다.

In this paper, dc-link voltage control of a grid-connected QZSI is presented. Since the input current of the ZSI is discontinuous, a capacity with relatively large capacitance should be connected to the output of the PV array in order to reduce the current ripple. Due to the presence of the impedance network inductor in series with the PV array, the QZSI can achieve continuous input current flow. Several dc-link voltage control methods are compared and the method for power quality improvement is also presented. The performance of the proposed method is verified through both simulation and experimental results.
