Abstract
We have investigated some of the problems involved in switching fast, high-power pulses using single-turn saturable core inductors constructed of Metglas 2605SC. These include hold-off voltages and times, output pulse risetimes, B-H curves of the material under fast pulse conditions, and propagation of the saturation field through the core. Experiments were done at Sandia on the RAMSES I accelerator which uses a 200-kV Marx generator to provide a 200-ns pulse to a 1 Ω coaxial water transmission line.
