Temperature dependence of turn-on process in 4H-SiCthyristors

Abstract
The turn-on process in 4H-SiC thyristors with a forward blocking voltage Ub ≃ 400 V has been investigated in the temperature range 160–500 K. The time constant of the current rise τr decreases monotonically with temperature, increasing from τr = 63 ns at T = 160 K to τr = 1.9 ns at T = 495 K.
