Thyristor is a four layer ( P-N-P-N ) semiconductor device that contains three PN junctions in series, and is represented by the symbol as shown.
The silicon controlled rectifier SCR, is one of several power semiconductor devices along with Triacs (Triode AC’s), Diacs (Diode AC’s) and UJT’s (Unijunction Transistor) that are all capable of acting like very fast solid state AC switches for controlling large AC voltages and currents.

Answer:
A thyristor (/θaɪˈrɪstər/) is a solid-state semiconductor device with four layers of alternating P- and N-type materials. It acts exclusively as a bistable switch, conducting when the gate receives a current trigger, and continuing to conduct until the voltage across the device is reversed biased, or until the voltage is removed (by some other means).
