High-voltage pulse rise time decreasing using transmission coaxial and spiral lines with ferrite

Abstract

Abstract This article presents the results of a study of the formation of a short rise time of a powerful nanosecond 410 kV pulse. Ferrite filled coaxial transmission lines with standard inner conductor and construction in the form of a spiral are designed. The sharpening of the pulse occurs due to the appearance of an electromagnetic shock wave in the ferrite. The value of the rise time at the level of 0.1 - 0.9 has been decreased from 4.5 to 2.5 ns.
