Researchers
in Texas Tech's Center for Pulsed Power and Power Electronics
have been instrumental in the United States Department of Defense's
efforts to combat improvised explosive devices (IEDs). The center's
research was recently referenced in a Popular Mechanics story
on the Navy's research in defeating IEDs. |

|
|
|
The Center for Pulsed Power and Power Electronics (P3E) has three primary research areas: Plasma, Pulsed Power, and Power Electronics.
|
Plasma research includes a small Tokomak used for wave propagation
studies, applications of plasma technology to pulsed power devices,
plasma synthesis of thin films, high power microwave generation,
and electric space propulsion engines.
Pulsed power research concentrates on high power switching,
materials studies, and high power microwaves. The program is
heavily interdisciplinary and involves faculty members from
EE, ME, Physics and Chemistry.
Power electronics research is focused on very large power IGBT's,
Ultra High Power SCR's, advanced electrical and thermal
packaging, robust controls for plasma arcs, and high bandwidth
monitoring and control of electric machines. The program is
also involved in the development of a power electronics curriculum
at the national level in collaboration with the University of
Minnesota.| Faculty Books | |
