description | This letter presents a detailed experimental investigation of the current-voltage characteristics of deca-nanometer gated-thyristors, highlighting that strong differences exist between the static and the dynamic operation of these devices. In particular, results reveal that the forward-breakover voltage determining thyristor turn-on does not depend only on the applied gate voltage, but also on the rise time of the applied gate pulse, decreasing for fast pulse fronts. This is explained in terms of a higher electron injection from the cathode to the anode triggering device turn-on when the gate switching time is shorter than that required for holes to leave the p-base. |
