Abstract :
FID Technology has developed a new class of superpower closing switches with picosecond operation (FID) and opening switches (DRD) with nanosecond operation. Each of those devices allows switching voltage of tens and hundreds kilovolts with currents higher than 10 kA. On the basis of the FID and DRD there has been developed a new class of the nano- and picosecond pulsers.
