Breakdown development in a nanosecond pulsed dielectric barrier discharge in humid air in plane-to-plane geometry

Ivo Furno, Xin Yang, Lorenzo Ibba

We used the ns electric field induced second harmonic (EFISH) generation diagnostic to measure the electric field evolution in a 200 ns pulse, dielectric barrier, plane-to-plane discharge in humid air, on the time scale shorter than the laser pulse duratio ...

A High Current Pulse-Power Supply for Flash Lamps in PV-Panel Measurement-Facilities

Alfred Rufer

In this paper, a high current pulse power supply for the feeding of a flash lamp has been developed, on the base of a multilevel converter with cascaded cells. The pulsed high power is provided by capacitive energy storage, directly connected to the cells ...

Principe d'alimentation par convertisseurs multiniveaux à stockage intégré : application aux accélérateurs de particules

Facilities operating in cycles, such as particles accelerators, require pulsed power. Directly drawing this pulsed power from the industrial network is generally not acceptable. A system with a local energy storage system lessens the impact on the network. ...

Introducing the Common Cross Connected Stage (C3S) for the 5L ANPC Multilevel Inverter

Alfred Rufer

This paper proposes a novel multilevel Power Electronics Building Block (PEBB) for the 5 level ANPC multilevel voltage source inverter [7]. The PEBB is composed of 6 switches in a crossed configuration [8] and one capacitor. It is common to the 3 phases of ...

High-Voltage Sensitivity Studies of Model Thick-Film Resistors

Thomas Maeder, Peter Ryser, Claudio Grimaldi, Caroline Marguerite Jacq, Niklaus Johner

In this work we seek to better understand the mechanisms governing pulse voltage trimming in disordered conductor-insulator composites. Therefore, we investigate the effect of the composition of thick-film resistors (TFRs) on sensitivity to high voltage pu ...
