Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Amol Deshpande's research focuses on the development and characterization of advanced power modules, particularly those utilizing wide-bandgap semiconductor materials like silicon carbide (SiC). During his graduate studies at the University of Arkansas, he contributed to research on high power-density SiC building blocks, traction inverters, and power modules as a Graduate Research Assistant with the NSF POETS ERC. His work involved investigating technologies for improved power conversion and management.

In his current role as a Hardware Development Engineer at Wolfspeed, Inc., Deshpande is responsible for the research and development of medium- and high-voltage power modules. His recent publications highlight work on hybrid SiC and Si IGBT modules, 3-level Neutral Point Clamped (3L-TNPC) power modules for high-density applications, and SiC-MOSFET based inverters. He also has research interests in partial discharge source identification for diagnosis in high voltage rotating machines.

Deshpande has co-authored over 30 publications and received a Best Paper Award at the 2016 IEEE Energy Conversion Congress and Exposition (ECCE). His scholarship metrics include an h-index of 15 and over 750 citations. His collaborators include Balaji Narayanasamy from the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville.
