摘要: Pulsed transverse electric (TE) glow discharges used to produce population inversions in gas lasers at 1–20 atm require high‐speed, high‐voltage, high‐current capacitor banks. In this article we first review and compare the circuits common use required fast, self‐sustained CO2, excimer, N2 lasers. The parameters circuit types given will be useful future designers of pulsed design optimize any proposed order yield desired operating conditions parameters. n‐stage presented are capacitor‐transfer (C‐C), L‐C inversion, Marx bank, fourfold with their double‐sided counterparts, also transmission‐line such as Blumlein circuit. A one‐parameter differential equation is developed which describes general series C‐L‐R Electrical pulses measured on various compared solutions for bank impedances load...
