Abstract

Summary form only given. A compact repetitive PFN-Marx generator was constructed for the application of generating electron beams. This generator has twenty-two stages with inductive isolation. Every stage consisted of twenty-one ceramic capacitors which may be charged the maximal voltage of 60kV by a pulse transformer in the time of 40us. A compact Marx trigger with the integrated design of a pulse transformer and a magnetic switch which have a common magnetic core was also fabricated. This generator can operate at 10Hz Rep-rate with the output power of 10GW and the impedance of 45Ω. This paper will discuss the operating characteristics of this generator.
