Abstract

Recent research activities on high temperature electronics in Japan are reviewed. Two national projects related to this area are currently in progress under the Ministry of International Trade and Industry (MITI): “R and D on Combustion Control Systems for Energy Conservation” and “R and D of Ultra-Low-Loss Power Device Technologies.” The two independent projects are both aimed at energy conservation. The projects deal with SiC material science and device technologies that break through the performance limitations of current Si devices. The transfer of technology from energy electronics to high temperature electronics is confidently expected
