Sentence examples for insulator breakdown from inspiring English sources

The results show that for some impulse waveshapes and polarities, the methods by Darveniza and Vlastos and by Hileman do not predict insulator breakdown for the lower voltage levels.

Silicon carbide (SiC) field-plate terminated Schottky diodes using silicon dioxide (SiO2) dielectric experience high electric field in the insulator and premature dielectric breakdown, attributed to the lower dielectric constant of the oxide.

This results in a very high electric field across the thin insulator (approximately 10 MV/cm) which can cause time-dependent dielectric breakdown (TDDB).

The reduction in height of the waveguide (the direction of the E field) causes the electric field strength across the gap to increase and arcing (or dielectric breakdown if the waveguide is filled with an insulator) will occur at a lower power than it would otherwise.

Some typical experiments are carried out to show the advantage of given algorithm, which finally is successfully applied to the image segmentation of breakdown insulator in power system.

In order to improve the high-voltage performance of organic insulators against flashover breakdown, a novel composite coating capable of conductive manipulation by the introduction of suitable amount of titanium dioxide photocatalytic semiconductor was proposed.

Electrical post insulators are important components of electrical substations since any type of failure in such insulators leads to the breakdown of the local network.

This avalanche effect is responsible for the phenomenon of breakdown in insulators and in semiconductors, where it is called the Zener effect.

It is certain that accumulated charge greatly enhances the local electric field distribution of insulator and may lead to breakdown even under nominal voltage.

Two kinds of traps exist in the bulk of the sample: shallow traps (due to chain polymer conformation) which contribute to the conduction phenomenon (transport) and deep traps (due to chemical impurities) which contribute to the trapping mechanism and charge accumulation which can lead to many problems and even to the electrical breakdown of the insulator [13, 14].

More recently, an improved device using MIM stacks and MPS was presented in [18] reaching up to 400 nF/mm2, though it used very thin alumina as insulator which negatively impacted leakage and breakdown.
