Plasma compression opening switch techniques are being |
|
developed for use in explosive driven magnetic flux |
|
compression generator applications. A new test bed for |
|
performing low cost experimentation is described. |
|
Experiments with MA/cm linear current density in the |
|
switch have achieved resistance increases of a factor of |
|
10 in a few hundred nanoseconds. Peak field strengths of |
|
30 kV/cm are generated in these tests. Data are presented |
|
from preliminary tests that indicate reduced pressure in |
|
the plasma cavity enhances switch performance. |
