Dr. Maksimovic's research is focused on power electronics, the technology that propels hybrid and electric vehicles, ties renewable sources such as photovoltaics to the electric power grid, powers a countless variety of electronic systems, and makes it possible to operate battery-powered mobile devices for many hours. Dr. Maksimovic is directing the Colorado Power Electronics Center (CoPEC) in explorations of ways to achieve significant system-level advances in energy efficiency and renewable energy sources via smart power electronics. Current research project topics include high-frequency power electronics using wide bandage semiconductors, efficiency improvements in data-center power delivery and photovoltaic power systems, power electronics for electrified transportation, high-efficiency radio transmitters, digital and mixed-signal control of high-frequency switched-mode power converters, and data-driven design automation techniques.
