“…As GaN HEMTs were initially introduced for RF applications before being adopted in the power electronics field, a vast majority of device models for GaN HEMTs were designed for RF applications [89,90,91,92,93] rather than power electronics applications. RF models focus mainly on parameters like gain and s-parameters which are not relevant parameters for power electronics applications.…”

First and foremost, I'd like to thank God for guiding me through this difficult period of my life and for sending me the right people at the right time. This study would not have been possible if it were not for the guidance and support of people from both Robert Bosch Southeast Asia Private Limited and Nanyang Technological University. On Bosch's side, I'd like to thank the power electronics team and my other colleagues at Robert Bosch, in particular, Dr Pham, who has provided the necessary guidance to hone my programming skills and improve my publication quality. Special thanks also goes out to the other members of Bosch's power electronics team -Jan Riedal, Jitendra Solanki, Nima Saadat, He Maojun and Zaki Mohzani for providing me technical guidance and moral support throughout this study. I'd also like to thank Konstantin Spanos from Robert Bosch's Stuttgart-based power electronics department for introducing me to the basics of device characterisation and for advising on the printed circuit board layouts of both my prototype converters and my switch characterisation equipment. On the University's side, I'd like to thank Professor Tseng King Jet, who has provided insight and advice on device physics as well as which direction to steer my research. I wish him well in his new endeavour at the Singapore Institute of Technology. I'd like to also thank Jennifer from the Electric Power Research Lab for supporting me on administrative issues. Finally, I'd like to thank Professor Ali Maswood, who agreed to take me on after Professor Tseng left to see my study to completion. ContentsAcknowledgements.
