ABSTRACT:
A light triggered thyristor device is improved by providing a light guide having a taper portion and acting to condense incident light while being constructed so as to achieve total internal reflection of the light passing therethrough. With this construction, the exit end of the light guide, as well as the light receiving portion of the thyristor, can be reduced in size.
