A compact, portable pulse forming line.
Some research has been done on making a compact, portable pulse forming line. A kind of ceramic based on SrTiO(3) is used as the dielectric of the planar pulse forming line. The ceramic's dielectric constant is around 300 and can store more energy than water with the same volume. However, it is not easy to manufacture the large ceramic bulk but we did successfully manufacture 80 x 10 x 6 cm(3) ceramic bulks. Using this kind of ceramic bulk as the dielectric, we successfully made a compact, portable line that generated a voltage pulse up to 150 kV with a duration of about 92 ns.
