Design of Pulse Forming Networks Triggered by High-Power Hydrogen Thyratron
Hydrogen thyratron is a switching device invented based on the phenomenon of gas discharge, and it is widely used in the field of high-power pulse technology. The design of Pulse Forming Network (PFN) triggered by hydrogen thyratron aims to control the switch of subsequent circuit, and shorten the gate-cathode voltage and conduction delay time by increasing the rise rate of the trigger voltage. However, in the currently adopted series resonance network design schemes, usually the value of inductance is very large, which can easily lead to the decline in the electromagnetic compatibility performance; moreover, the large distribution of network component parameters will greatly increase the fabrication difficulties. In view of the features of high-power hydrogen thyratron and the design requirements of PFN, this paper adopted the series resonance network design scheme to devise network series and parameters of the PFN and analyze the shortcomings of the series resonance network design scheme; then, it used the anti-resonance network to design a three-stage transform algorithm model, so as to achieve the purpose of reducing the inductance of the PFN and the difficulty of capacitance model selection in engineering practice. At last, simulation results verified the correctness and feasibility of the designed three-stage transform algorithm model, providing evidences for the pulse network projects of hydrogen thyratron and other high-power equipment in terms of implementation paths, methods, and algorithm models
Tooth-shaped plasmonic waveguide filters with nanometeric sizes
A novel nanometeric plasmonic filter in a tooth-shaped Metal-Insulator-Metal
waveguide is proposed and demonstrated numerically. An analytic model based on
the scattering matrix method is given. The result reveals that the single
tooth-shaped filter has a wavelength filtering characteristic and an
ultra-compact size in the length of a few hundred nanometers, compared to
grating-like SPPs filters. Both analytic and simulation results show that the
wavelength of the trough of the transmission has linear and nonlinear
relationships with the tooth depth and the tooth width, respectively. The
waveguide filter could be utilized to develop ultra-compact photonic filters
for high integration.Comment: 16 pages, 5 figure
