Vp. Gubanov et al., A HIGH-VOLTAGE NANOSECOND GENERATOR WITH A PULSE REPETITION RATE OF UP TO 1 KHZ, Instruments and experimental techniques, 40(1), 1997, pp. 85-88
A small-sized generator contains a 30-Omega coaxial forming line, whic
h is charged by a Tesla transformer with a high coupling coefficient i
n the line and a high-voltage gas (N-2) spark gap switch with gas blow
-through between the electrodes. The maximum charging voltage of the f
orming line is 450 kV, the duration of the formed pulses is similar to
4 ns, and the pulse amplitude at the matched load reaches similar to
200 kV.
