Abstract :
The free-carrier absorption (FCA) technique is used for mapping
of the carrier content in a dual-cathode gate turn-off thyristor
(GTO) at different stages of the turn-off cycle. The FCA
technique outputs 3-D maps based on 2-D measurements of local
carrier concentration. The measurements are time resolved, thus
making a transient response converted into a corresponding
sequence of carrier maps. The dual-cathode device is shown to be
sufficient for determining the transient behavior in a
multicathode structure. The destruction mechanism and reasons for
turn-off failure are investigated. The GTO device is inductively
loaded and asymmetrically gate contacted in order to emulate a
realistic mode of operation. The gate-driving conditions are
altered, and the importance of the turn-off gain for turn-off
failure is established. The case of equal ON-state cathode
currents in both segments is particularly highlighted. The
influence of snubber circuits is also discussed.
