摘要： A main thyristor (1) has a recovery protection which is integrated into a drive thyristor (2) whose n-doped emitter (25) is electrically connected to a main thyristor control terminal (140). Moreover, the p-doped emitter (28) of the drive thyristor (2) is electrically connected to the p-doped emitter (18) of the main thyristor (1). Various optional measures for realizing a recovery protection are provided in this case. A method for producing a thyristor system having a main thyristor and a drive thyristor, the drive thyristor (2) having anode short circuits (211) involves introducing particles (230) into a target region (225) of the semiconductor body (200) of the drive thyristor (2), the distance between the target region (225) and a front side (201) of the semiconductor body (200) opposite to the rear side (202) being less than or equal to the distance between the p-doped emitter (28) and the front side (201).

摘要： A thyristor includes a semiconductor body having an anode-side base zone of a first conductance type, and having a cathode-side base zone of the second, opposite conductance type, and has cathode-side and anode-side emitter zones. An anode-side defect zone is included within the anode-side base zone, in which the free charge carriers have a reduced life, with a predetermined thickness of at least 20 &mgr;m. The defect zone may be produced by anode-side irradiation of predetermined regions of the semiconductor body with charged particles, and with heat treatment of the semiconductor body in order to stabilize the defect zone.

摘要： The effective doping profile of a finished thyristor is altered with helium ions radiated into a region provided for triggering the thyristor in such a way that the breakover voltage for overhead ignition is increased or reduced. Doping profile changes made in the cathode side half of the anode side base provide effective results, e.g. in the vicinity of the pn junction between the anode side and the cathode side base. The helium ions generate acceptor-type states that lower the effective n doping.

摘要： A semiconductor component has a first and a second contact-making region, and a semiconductor volume arranged between the first and the second contact-making region. Within the semiconductor volume, it is possible to generate a current flow that runs from the first contact-making region to the second contact-making region, or vice versa. The semiconductor volume and/or the contact-making regions are configured in such a way that the local flow cross-section of a locally elevated current flow, which is caused by current splitting, is enlarged at least in partial regions of the semiconductor volume.
