Pulsed power application assisted by power semiconductor devices

Shozo Ishii, K. Yasuoka, S. Ibuka

Abstract

Pulsed power technology is progressively employed in industrial applications. Power semiconductor devices are promoting the development. The technical issues on power devices for pulsed power applications are summarized. A promising candidate for the fast high power switch is SI-thyristors whose capability has been verified experimentally. We point out the importance of experimental investigation on the temporal and spatial behavior of free carriers in the power devices.
