Prof. Jessica Boles
Welcome
Power electronic systems supply, convert, and control electrical energy, driving innovation in nearly every major industry. Our team's research spans power electronic circuit topologies, components, and control, along with systems and applications enabled by these. We are currently exploring a new class of power electronics based on piezoelectric passive components, which are positioned to enable rapid miniaturization, efficiency improvement, and cost reduction for future power electronics in a wide variety of applications.Â
