Prof. Hanh-Phuc Le's research at the integrated Power Electronics and Energy-Efficient Systems (iPower3Es) Lab at UC San Diego is at the boundary between and deep into the two areas: integrated circuits and power electronics. The group’s goal is to create miniaturized/integrated circuit designs and power management systems that achieve optimal trade-offs among size, performance, and efficiency. Applications of interest include various electronic devices and systems from low power to high power, smartphones to data centers and telecommunication systems, battery-powered components to renewable- and grid-power devices, and from stationary systems to robots, automotive devices, and aircraft.
