Abstract
The operation of GaAs n+-p-i-n 0-p + dynistor structures has been demonstrated experimentally under conditions of reversible avalanche breakdown at temperatures up to 200 °C with switching times remaining under 140 ps. A numerical simulation refined the influence of various parameters of the semiconductor on the temperature dependence of the switching characteristics.
