Abstract :
A set of curves is presented. These curves can be easily used to obtain the tradeoff relations between the reverse and the forward voltages of high-voltage p-i-n rectifiers. By using the lifetime as a parameter, those curves can also be used to achieve compromises between the forward voltage and the recovery time.
