摘要：
This paper discusses extrapolations of current silicon power device technology into the future, followed by discussions of wide band gap (WBG) power devices with a focus on silicon carbide and gallium nitride. Other WBG materials are included from carbon, such as diamond and nanotubes, to various nitrides. Far future material development, that may impact power electronic devices decades out, is also discussed.
