New low inductance gas switches for linear transformer drivers
We have developed two new gas switches that are designed to be used with linear transformer drivers. The switches, which can be DC charged to 200 kV and triggered with less than a 2-ns 1-σ jitter, have overall inductances ranging from 69 to 85 nH. When transferring 400 J of energy per shot, the swit...
