Abstract
A solid-state nanosecond SOS-generator for electrophysical technology applications is described. In the input part of the generator, the energy arrives at the high-voltage magnetic compressor through IGBT modules and a step-up pulse transformer. The input part of the generator is equipped with an unused energy recuperation circuit, and, when the output pulse is formed, the microsecond pumping mode of the semiconductor opening switch (SOS) is realized. As a result, the complete efficiency of the generator operating into a matched load is increased from ∼40 to 60–62%. The other characteristics of the generator are as follows: the peak voltage is up to 60 kV, the current is up to 6 kA, the pulse duration is about 40 ns, the pulse repetition rate in the continuous mode is 1 kHz, and the average output power is up to 9 kW.
