At Sandia National Laboratories, we have developed a unique capacitor technology. This technology is based upon impregnation of plastic film capacitor rolls with perfluorocarbon insulating liquids. At Los Alamos National Laboratory, we have installed and activated a 300-kW capacitor modulator. This paper is a current status report of this continuing program.
