A power converter configured to generate a high-frequency power signal comprises at least one amplifier stage having first and second amplifier paths each having an amplifier, the first amplifier path outputting a first amplifier path output signal and the second amplifier path outputting a second amplifier path output signal that, has a phase shift relative to the first amplifier path output signal greater than 0° and less than 180°. The first and second amplifier paths are connected to a phase-shifting coupler that is configured to couple the first and second amplifier path output signals to form the high-frequency power signal. At least one amplifier of the first and second amplifier paths comprises a SiC MOSFET.
