Çalikoğlu's work addresses electrical power conversion systems, particularly in electric vehicles, industrial machines, medical systems, and avionics. His recent research improves Z-source inverter efficiency through novel switched inductor topologies.

His 2019 publication demonstrates a generalized design approach with series inductors/diodes, validated via National Instrument Multisim simulations. This work achieved higher boost factors, reduced startup inrush current, and lower capacitor stress compared to classical ZSI schemes.
