Background:
Dr. Alexander Grekov joined Professor Sudarshan’s research team
in July 2001 as a Graduate Research Assistant. His
credentials include a Doctor of Philosophy degree in Electrical
Engineering from University of South Carolina, Columbia, SC and Diploma of
Specialization in Electrical Engineering from Taganrog State University of
Radio Engineering, Russia. During
his work in the SiC Research Lab at USC, Dr. Grekov has acquired a rigorous
clean room experience and knowledge in design, fabrication, and
characterization of SiC devices. Research:
Dr.
Grekov’s research is focused on study of degradation phenomenon in SiC
bipolar devices and development of diffusion technique to prevent
degradation of forward voltage drop in SiC PiN diodes. Another important
project he is currently conducting is a detailed analysis of the
defect-device performance correlation and identification of the issues
that could deteriorate the device performance and yield in SiC Schottky
diodes. He
is a key researcher for a number of research projects assigned by Office
of Naval Research and Department of Defense. Up
to date Dr. Grekov have authored/coauthored 6 peer-reviewed articles in
the major scientific journals, such as IEEE Transactions on Electron Devices
(USA),
Journal of Applied Physics (USA), and Material Science Forum
(Switzerland) and
presented the results of his research at a number of the national and
international conferences.
