Abstract:

No decision has been reached as to the semiconductor device that will be used as the switching element for the nanosecond pulsers. The evaluation of avalanche transistors, VMOS FET, and LASS devices is continuing. A contributing factor to the lack of progress during the early months of the contract was program staffing problems and late arrival of critical test equipment. Author
