Electrostrictions in high-power soliton generator

  • 1. General Atomics, San Diego, California 92138

Description

Electrostriction effects are considered in a high power dielectric loaded transmission line designed to generate solitons. The Cerenkov emission of elastic waves from the metal-dielectric interface produces the largest strain among the strain producing mechanisms. The expression for strain as a function of electric field strength is found. The signal loss due to the emission of elastic waves is shown to be insignificant
