LASER TRIGGERED GAS SWITCHES UTILIZING BEAM TRANSPORT THROUGH 1 MO-cm DEIONIZED WATER.
We report on the successful attempts to trigger high voltage pressurized gas switches by utilizing beam transport through 1 MO-cm deionized water. The wavelength of the laser radiation was 532 nm. We have investigated Nd: YAG laser triggering of a 6 MV, SF6 insulated gas switch for a range of laser and switch parameters. Laser wavelength of 532 nm with nominal pulse lengths of 10 ns full width half maximum (FWHM) were used to trigger the switch. The laser beam was transported through 67 cm-long cell of 1 MO-cm deionized water constructed with anti reflection UV grade fused silica windows.more » -
Multi-beam-bulk model for electron transport during commutation in an optically triggered pseudospark thyratron
The electron energy distribution in low-pressure pulsed power plasma switches is typically not in equilibrium with the local electric field. To simulate electron transport under these conditions a computer model has been developed and has been applied to the optically triggered pseudospark, or back-lit-thyratron (BLT). The model uses many groups of electrons divided into the bulk'' and the beam''. The bulk is represented by a fluid while the beam electrons are ballistic in nature and have not undergone significant energy-loss collisions after generation. To account for beam electrons being generated at arbitrary locations in the BLT, multiple beams are employedmore » -
