Abstract

A method for generation of ultra-wideband electromagnetic pulses with a nanosecond duration and a picosecond rise time has been studied. The emitter is a horn antenna with a photoconductive switch irradiated by laser pulses. It has been shown that the duration of ultra-wideband electromagnetic pulses is determined by the length of the antenna and the semiconductor material, and the rising front is determined by the front of the laser pulses used to initiate the photoconductive switch. The work shows typical pulse durations of ~1 ns with a rising edge of up to ~34 ps.
