By the application of an infrared radiometer as the sensor, hot-spot formation is detected and a hot-spot thermal resistance is calculated. Hot-spot formation for both forward- and reverse-biased second breakdown is analyzed. Pulsed dc techniques are used in the investigation, allowing a wide range of possible operating biases to be applied.
