Abstract
In order to generate high current and voltage (500-5000 A, 30-100 kV) and brief pulse duration (20-500 ns), saturable inductors were used instead of Thyratrons. Saturable magnetic cores and SCRs (Silicon Controlled Rectifier) performance better in case of high energy transfer. This technique is cheap, it permits shorter make times, higher repetition rates and mean life. A 80 KV, 10 J, 100 ns and 1 KHz of repetition rate pulse generator was realized. This apparatus has been tested to generate X-rays to preionize an excimer laser.
