A GTO can be represented by two transistors T1 & T2. The current gain of both transistors are α1 and α2 respectively. A low value of gate current requires Correct Answer low value of α1 and high value of α2

In order that the gate current for turning-off the device is low, α2 should be made as nearer to unity as possible whereas α1 should be small.
