Abstract

A newly proposed lateral dual-gate thyristor was fabricated and measured, which has excellent current saturation characteristics of $1200A/cm^2$ even at an anode-gate voltage of 29V, through the elimination of the structurally existing parasitic thyristor. And through the comparison with the LIGBT, the excellent current saturation characteristics of a newly proposed device was verified.
