Characterization of plasma conductivity by laser Thomson scattering in a high-voltage laser-triggered switch
High-voltage laser-triggered switches (HV-LTSs) are used in pulsed-power applications where low jitter and high current are required. The switches allow operation in the mega-ampere, megavolt regime while maintaining low insertion losses. Low inductance HV-LTS designs have shown discrepancies …

Analysis of a laser induced plasma in high pressure SF6 gas for high-voltage, high-current switching
<p>The Laser Triggered Switch Program at Sandia National Laboratories is an intensive development study to understand and optimize the laser triggered gas switch (LTGS) for the Z-Refurbishment (ZR) project. The laser triggered gas switch is the final command-triggered switch in the machine, and …
