Dihao Ma's research focuses on power electronics for grid applications, particularly modular multilevel converters (MMCs) used to connect power grids and manage electricity transmission, including at medium and high voltages. Work spans hardware design using silicon carbide (SiC) semiconductor devices, control strategies for balancing power under unstable grid conditions, and monitoring the health of power modules in real time. This research is relevant to improving the reliability and efficiency of electrical grid infrastructure, including high-voltage direct current (HVDC) transmission systems.
