T. Hoshino et al., Turn off trigger energy characteristics of the Superconducting Power Electronics Device (S-PED) - in case of type D, IEEE APPL S, 9(2), 1999, pp. 1221-1224
S-PED means a superconducting power electronics device. We made some therma
lly controlled S-PED which is normally-on device. They work up to 100 Hz as
a full wave rectifier. For the power supply of superconducting magnets, th
e flux pump can be used as SPEED (Superconducting Power Electronics Excitat
ion Device). In this paper, we describe the turn off characteristics of one
of the S-PED (type d). The relations between generated resistance, gate-tr
igger energy and channel current were obtained.
