Early Stage of the Explosion of Thin Flat Foils in a High-Current Diode at a Current of 40–80 kA
Abstract
The initial stage of the nanosecond explosion of 1–15 μm-thick flat foils in a diode with a current of 40–80 kA is studied. Projection radiography is used to take images of exploded foils at a spatial resolution of 3–4 μm using the soft X-ray radiation (E = 2.5–5 keV) of a hybrid X-pinch and at a time resolution of 0.1 ns. Foil strips 0.3–2 mm wide and 0.5–7 mm long were introduced in the return circuit of the diode in a high-current BIN generator with a current amplitude of 270 kA and a current rise time of 100 ns; the main load of the generator is an X-pinch. The experiments demonstrate that small-scale structures, the shape and the size of which depend on the foil material and the current density and distribution in a foil, are formed in a foil. Possible scenarios of the structure formation are discussed.
