Development of multi-way high-voltage nanosecond rectangle wave pulsed power generator

A 21-way high-voltage nanosecond rectangle wave pulsed power generator was developed for pulsed power experiments that require multi-way high-voltage nanosecond rectangle wave as excitation. This generator was composed of a 1-way high-voltage nanosecond rectangle wave pulsed power generator and a 1-way to 21-way convertor. The output voltage wave of the 1-way high-voltage nanosecond rectangle wave pulsed power generator was a rectangle wave whose amplitude was about 1070 V, full width at half maximum about 10.10 ns and rise time about 1.45 ns. This rectangle wave could be converted to 21-way rectangle wave using the 21-way convertor. Each way output rectangle wave of the 21-way convertor had an amplitude of 50.98 V, a full width at half maximum of about 10.15 ns and a rise time of about 2.25 ns.
