Silicon Thyristors for Ultrahigh Power (GW) Applications

Evolution of thyristor technology and the design concepts, which brought and maintain the phase control thyristor (PCT) at the top of a power pyramid, are discussed. The state-of-the-art device concepts like electrically triggered thyristor and light triggered thyristor are described for voltage cla...
