High-voltage solid-state transducers and associated systems and methods

Abstract:

High-voltage solid-state transducer (SST) devices and associated systems and methods are disclosed herein. An SST device in accordance with a particular embodiment of the present technology includes a carrier substrate, a first terminal, a second terminal and a plurality of SST dies connected in series between the first and second terminals. The individual SST dies can include a transducer structure having a p-n junction, a first contact and a second contact. The transducer structure forms a boundary between a first region and a second region with the carrier substrate being in the first region. The first and second terminals can be configured to receive an output voltage and each SST die can have a forward junction voltage less than the output voltage.
