Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The Guest Editor is currently inviting submissions for a Special Issue of Energies focused on the subject area of “Power Semiconductor Devices: Optimization, Characterization, and Applications”. Power semiconductor devices are fundamental to modern power converters, and their high performance enables power systems to achieve greater efficiency. In recent years, there have been numerous emerging techniques for power semiconductor devices, as well as related application issues. Additionally, package & module design and power integration circuits are also intriguing topics of interest for researchers in this field.
This Special Issue will deal with optimization, characterization, and related application issues of power semiconductor devices. Topics of interest for publication include, but are not limited to:
- High Voltage Silicon Power Devices;
- Medium and Low Voltage Silicon Power Devices;
- Lateral GaN Devices and Reliability Issues;
- Vertical GaN Devices;
- Novel Structure of SiC Devices;
- Ultra-High Voltage WBG Power Devices;
- Powe Module Design & Development;
- Reliability and Health Monitoring for Power Device and Modules;
- Circuits and ICs for Drivers & Device Protection
Dr. Gang Lyu

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Energies is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
