Abstract:
1. A solid-state high-voltage pulse generator comprising: a reactive bridge having first, second, third, and fourth branches and first and second diagonals, each of said first, second, third, and fourth branches comprising a diode, said first diagonal comprising a power supply source of direct-current to provide direct-current to said first diagonal, said power supply having an output filter capacitor; an intermediate capacitor provided across said second diagonal, said intermediate capacitor charged by said power supply through said first and third branches to a voltage substantially higher than a voltage of said power supply, said intermediate capacitor discharged to said filter capacitor by said second and fourth branches; an output transformer having at least one primary winding and at least one secondary winding; a series circuit comprising a solid-state switch in series with said primary winding, said series circuit provided in parallel with said intermediate capacitor; and a control circuit to control said solid-state switch.
