ABSTRACT:
A gate turn-off PIN diode has its anode and cathode adjacent to the same major surface of the device body. The anode and cathode regions are separated by a recess which extends into the body towards the gate region. Turn-off is effected by the spread of a depletion layer from the reverse-biased gate junction to the recess.
