Abstract :
Certain fundamental issues are unresolved in the development of components for the power modulators that are required for new pulsed power supply applications. Several of these applications are discussed, and required research and development is reviewed. An example in GaAs is presented. It is argued that underlying research supporting the development of high voltage and high repetition rate components, such as switches and capacitors, is needed
