Abstract
"A novel GaN on Si device is presented and tested in an ""application like"" circuit. The device is a Bi-Directional Normally-Off Switch aimed at AC mains powered applications, it uses a single reference electrode for gating direct and reverse conduction modes. Demonstration of the current collapse free operation of the device under 264V, 3A, 1MHz is presented. © 2016 IEEE."
