Abstract

1,017,054. Semi-conductor controlled rectifiers. WESTINGHOUSE BRAKE & SIGNAL CO. Ltd. July 3, 1962 [Aug. 18, 1961], No. 29837/61. Heading H1K. A semi-conductor controlled rectifier comprises a wafer 12 of P- type silicon with an N- type layer 11 diffused into one face. A slot is etched through layer 11 to divide it into regions 11A, 11B of unequal area. Emitter electrode 15 is alloyed to region 11B forming an ohmic contact via N-type region 11C, collector electrode 16 is alloyed to region 11A forming a rectifying contact via P-type region 12A, and wafer 12 is mounted on a copper base 14 which forms the gate electrode of the device. The device may be switched on and off by applying suitable bias voltages to gate 14. The width of channel 13 controls the amount of power which can be switched by the device.
