Development of a 5.4 MV laser triggered gas switch for multimodule, multimegampere pulsed power drivers

Laser triggered, megavolt, megampere gas switches are frequently utilized to synchronize multiple pulsed power driver modules for inertial-confinement fusion, isentropic compression, and radiation physics experiments. The device developed to synchronize the 36 modules of the refurbished Z accelerato...
