A thyristor is a semiconductor device that acts like a controllable one-way gate for electrical current, designed to handle high-power applications such as inverters and radar systems. It works as a bistable switch—meaning it can be turned on or off—and typically consists of four alternating layers of semiconductor material that allow current to flow in one direction but not the other.
