    摘要: A light fired thyristor including a semiconductor body having four zones of alternatingly opposite conductivity types constituting a first or cathode emitter zone, a control base zone adjacent thereto, a main base zone and a second or anode emitter zone with the cathode emitter zone being formed within the control base zone at one major surface of the semiconductor body and being divided into a plurality of separate regions of which one serves as the firing region of the first emitter zone to fire the thyristor in response to impinging radiation energy. The firing region of the first emitter zone is provided in part with a first ohmic contact which is ohmically connected to a further ohmic contact connected to the control base region adjacent the edge of the semiconductor body. The remaining regions of the first emitter zone are provided with a cathode contact which simultaneously contacts the portions of the control base zone between these regions and forms short circuits with the control base zone. Consequently with interfering currents which are approximately uniformly distributed over the thyristor area, an increase in potential is produced in the firing region of the first emitter zone which increase is in the same direction as the increase in potential in the firing region of the control base zone and the likelihood of a faulty firing of the thyristor is reduced.

    摘要: A gate turn-off thyristor device including a gate turn-off main thyristor and a gate turn-off auxiliary thyristor, each having an emitter, a control base, a main base and a counter-emitter, integrated in a semiconductor body including three zones of alternatingly opposite conductivity type. The three zones of the semiconductor body are each divided into two regions to provide the counter-emitter, main base and control base zones of the two thyristors, while the emitter zones of the main thyristor and of the auxiliary thyristor are separate zones formed in the respective associated regions constituting the control base zones of the respective thyristors. The two counter-emitter zones of the two thyristors are commonly contacted, and the two regions of at least one of the zones of the semiconductor body are doped differently so that the turn-off gain of the main thyristor is greater than the turn-off gain of the auxiliary thyristor and the holding current of the auxiliary thyristor is smaller than the holding current of the main thyristor.

    摘要: A gate turn-off thyristor comprising, a first emitter layer of one conductivity type, a main base layer of another conductivity type connected to said first emitter layer and a control base layer of the first conductivity type connected to the main base layer. A second emitter of the other conductivity type is connected to the control base layer at a junction which surrounds a portion of the second emitter layer. An emitter contact is connected to the second emitter layer and a control base contact is connected to the control base layer. The gate turn-off thyristor is turned off by a short circuiting of the control base contact with the emitter contact. The surface resistance of the control base layer between the second emitter layer and the control base contact is selected so that, with a control base turn-off current applied which is sufficient for turning off the thyristor, a potential appears on a lateral resistance in the control base layer which is less than a potential appearing at the junction. This difference in potential is used as an additional driving potential for the hole or electron current flowing over the lateral resistance and the control base layer.
