The journal retracts the article titled “Analysis of Scalable Resonant DC–DC Converter Using GaN Switches for xEV Charging Stations” [1], cited above.
Following publication, concerns were brought to the attention of the publisher regarding similarities between this publication [1] and previously published articles [2,3], produced by Rajanand Patnaik Narasipuram and Subbarao Mopidevi.
Adhering to our procedure, an investigation was conducted by the Editorial Office and the Editorial Board that confirmed a significant level of overlap between these publications [1,2,3]. Given the extent of the overlap, the Editorial Board considers this publication to be redundant and have decided to retract this article as per MDPI’s retraction policy (https://www.mdpi.com/ethics#_bookmark30).
This retraction was approved by the Editor-in-Chief of the journal World Electric Vehicle Journal.
Anton Dianov agreed to this retraction. Rajanand Patnaik Narasipuram, Subbarao Mopidevi, Amit Singh Tandon did not agree to this retraction.
