Manjit Guleria formerly worked as an electrical engineer who taught and worked widely in the field of power electronics.
Briefly defined, power electronics covers all issues related to the application of solid-state electronics to transform and control power flow. In addition to converting electrical power into various forms, power electronics engineers manage energy flow from source to load, with a focus on reliability and efficiency. Key to this discipline are power electronic circuits, which employ power semiconductor devices to switch or alter electric current.
The history of power electronics dates back to the early 1900s at the very least. At that time, inventor Peter Cooper Hewitt invented the glass-bulb, pool-cathode, mercury-arc rectifier, which could transform AC to DC current. Other historians date the birth of power electronics to the early electrical machines of the 1800s.
