            Abstract : 
A pulsed voltage generator, called Frizz, has been designed and constructed at Sandia Laboratories and is now being used as a voltage source for breakdown studies of various materials. Frizz generates a nominal 100 ns pulse of variable risetime from 5 to 50 ns across a vacuum chamber in which dielectric test samples are placed.
