Title: High voltage thyristor for HVDC transmission and static VAr compensators
Abstract: A 9 kV tandem thyristor was realized using an asymmetrical thyristor and a diode connected in series. The device processing steps are outlined. Simulation results and measured electrical data are reported. A comparison is made with two 4.2 kV, conventional, symmetrical thyristors connected in series, focusing on the tradeoff between static and dynamic power losses.< <ETX xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">></ETX>
