Abstract :
The long conduction time plasma opening switch (POS) is a candidate for the last stage opening switch in inductive storage systems. Very fast opening switches have become important for pulsed power. They can provide voltage increase in the largest pulsed power machines. Also, inductive storage using fast. opening switches can provide cheaper and more compact pulsed power machines.
