    摘要: In a gate insulated static induction thyristor with a split gate type shorted cathode structure, a first gate of the split gate structure is used as a cathode short-circuit gate and the cathode region is formed in the second gate. A MOS structure is formed on the second gate as a control gate electrode isolated therefrom. Since the channel integration density is high, the area efficiency increases. The MOS gate structure suppresses the minority carrier (hole) storage effect to permit high-speed swtching of the thyristor, and the shorted cathode structure provides for increased maximum controllable current/voltage durability. The split gate structure can be used in combination with planar, buried, recessed and double gate structures.
