Description

A mechanism of the erosion gap formation in a microsecond plasma opening switch at the end of the conduction phase is proposed. The proposed mechanism of the current cutoff in a plasma opening switch allows one to determine the characteristics of the switch during the current cutoff and to reveal their functional dependence's on the switch parameters

Abstract (Russian)

Предложен механизм образования зазора под действием эрозии в микросекундном открытом плазменном переключателе в конце фазы проводимости. Предложенный механизм отсечки тока в этом переключателе позволяет определить его характеристики во время отсечки тока и найти зависимости этой величины от параметров переключателя
