Abstract
Effective triggering of pseudospark switches with long lifetime and low jitter remains an important problem. This paper presents results of investigations of trigger methods for pseudospark switches. based upon pulsed glow discharges in planar and hollow electrode geometry for charge injection. The influence of different wiring and geometries of the electrodes for preionization is investigated. The effect of additional blocking potentials in the hollow cathode to improve different trigger systems was measured. Calculations of the static potential in the hollow cathode with or without blocking potential are compared with parameters of the discharge. >
