ABSTRACT:
A semiconductor device comprises a static induction thyristor and a photosensitive element connected to a gate of the static induction thyristor so that the static induction thyristor is controlled optically. A plurality of the semiconductor devices are easily connected in series and/or in parallel with each other to control a large current and/or voltage.
