Abstract
Electron-hole plasma propagation in the lateral direction of a thyristor is slowed down by emitter shunts. The lifetimes of the device also influence the plasma-spreading velocity. These phenomena are observed by taking time-resolved pictures of recombination radiation emission from the device.Keywords
