摘要
A plasma opening switch using laser produced plasma is successfully operated at repetition rates up to 3.3 pulses per second. It is shown that the switch performance has good reproducibility without any maintenance. Reliability tests indicate that the switch lifetime is limited by the volume of the target material and the lifetime of the energy storage capacitor. (C) 1997 American Institute of Physics.
