Monolithically integrated solid-state-circuit-breaker for high power applications

In this study, the basic device features of a novel monolithically integrated solid-statecircuit- breaker (MI-SSCB) are demonstrated and analyzed using numerical simulations. Thereby, the MI-SSCB is built according to the concept of the dual thyristor. But, in comparison to similar technical solutions reported in literature, due to the advanced device structure proposed in this study a monolithically integration could be achieved for the first time.
