Current Research and Scholarly Interests
Modern applications are driving demand for power systems with capabilities beyond what is presently achievable. High performance systems, like medical imaging systems and other applications impose challenging specifications on power density and bandwidth that are difficult to achieve with current circuit topologies. Power density can be improved with better semiconductor components and passive elements, and by reducing the energy storage requirements of the system. By dramatically increasing the switching frequency, it is possible to reduce the energy storage requirements and improve bandwidth. I'm interested in the development of system architectures and circuit topologies for dc-ac and dc-dc power conversion that can reach switching frequencies of 10’s to 100’s of MHz. Switching at these frequencies will lead to efficient converters with inductors and transformers having no magnetic material to limit their high frequency performance, and with small-valued capacitors.
At these switching frequencies, all inductors can be air-cored, eliminating core losses, saturation, and extending their operating temperature range. I have been involved in the development of dc-dc converter that archives a significant reduction in peak switch voltage stress, requires small passive components with low energy storage, and provides the capability for extremely rapid startup and shutdown.
Another goal of my work is to implement a value-added strategy in inexpensive printed circuit boards (PCB) by fabricating all passive devices of a power converter (inductors and capacitors) with traces, transforming the PCB into a 3-D resonant structure. This approach will eliminate tuning and component variation while simultaneously maintaining extraordinary levels of performance at reduced cost. Moreover, there a lot of exciting applications for these high frequency circuits.

Near Spurious-Free Thickness Shear Mode Lithium Niobate Resonator for Piezoelectric Power Conversion.
IEEE transactions on ultrasonics, ferroelectrics, and frequency control
2023; PP
Abstract
Piezoelectric power converters, where acoustic resonators replace the inductors as energy storage elements, promise much higher power density and higher efficiency compared to conventional circuits. Recently, lithium niobate (LiNbO3) piezoelectric resonators have been integrated within power converter circuits, showing good conversion efficiency, thanks to their high quality factor (Q) and electromechanical coupling (kt2). However, the converter output power range is limited by large spurious modes near resonance. This work reports a near-spurious-free LiNbO3 thickness shear (TS) resonator, demonstrating high Q of 3500 and kt2 of 45% at 5.94 MHz, with a fractional suppressed region of 35%. First, we identify the best LiNbO3 crystal orientation for efficient TS resonators. Then, we propose a novel acoustic design without busbars for spurious suppression, which is extensively simulated, fabricated, and characterized. Further analysis is done to identify existing spurious modes in our proposed design, specifically the effect of dicing on our TS resonator design. Upon optimization, LiNbO3 TS resonators could potentially empower a new design space for low-loss and compact power converters.

Plasma-fixated nitrogen as fertilizer for turf grass.
RSC advances
2021; 11 (60): 37886-37895
Abstract
We investigated the use of plasma-fixated nitrogen, which produces nitrates (NO3 -) in water, as a possible nitrogen fertilizer for recreational turf such as rye grass and bent grass. Experiments were carried out to study the effects of nitrate concentration on growth, the further effects of adding phosphorous (P) and potassium (K) to the plasma nitrated solution to make an N-P-K complete fertilizer, and to compare the efficacy of plasma-fixated nitrogen to sodium nitrate (NaNO3) and potassium nitrate (KNO3). The results indicate that the growth and biomass of the plants were strongly dependent on the concentration of the plasma-fixated nitrogen. Adding P-K to the plasma-fixated nitrogen improved grass growth. Grass that was supplied plasma-fixated nitrogen had improved growth compared to those supplied with equal amounts of NaNO3 and KNO3. This work highlights the potential use of plasma-fixated nitrogen as a fertilizer source for commonly used turf grass.
