Abstract :
A method to improve the switching time of the fast high power thyristors is described. The task is to obtain low turn off time with a rate of the reapplied voltage of 400 V/μs. The method combines the gold diffusion with the localized electron irradiation. This is a good compromise to obtain the required limits for both VT and I R (125°C)
