Temperature and Radiation-Related Power Diode
Because power diodes are important in power electronics, this research explores how high temperatures and radiation impact their operation. A main aim of the analysis is to study forward voltage drop, reverse leakage current and switching characteristics from various radiation and temperature situations. Both simulation and experiments reveal that radiation can deteriorate how long diodes function and how effective they are, while rising temperatures raise leakage and drop break downlinking voltage, understanding these effects is necessary to improve the reliability and working life of power diodes in space, nuclear and aerospace environments.
