PULSED MAGNETIC FIELD FERROMAGNETIC MICROWAVE GENERATOR

Abstract

Measurements on the voltage-triggered spark gap show that excessive jitter is caused at high pulse repetition rates by the interaction of the trigger and pulser circuitry. Ultra-violet (U-V) triggered gaps will be used to minimize this interaction problem. A new method has been devised for obtaining increased power output using multiple YIG spheres in a distributed circuit configuration. A radial line transition between a 4-ohm coaxial line pulser and the pulsed-field coil has been designed to decrease pulse risetime degradation at this transition. Preliminary measurements on a U-V triggered spark gap installed in a 4-ohm coaxial line pulser indicate fast risetime pulses are feasible.
