Research on High Density Nanosecond Spark Light Sources.
Abstract
The major research efforts of the past year are described. The effect of the spark gap and stray capacities on the operation of a nitrogen laser was analysed. The power from such a laser was increased by a factor of 4 by selecting a matching capacity. A nanosecond standard light source was developed by calibrating a 'Nanolite' in terms of a calibrated DC carbon arc. Results of studies using both a 1 and 5 kilojoule dense plasma focus device are described. (Author)
