Laser-driven semiconductor switch for generating nanosecond pulses from a megawatt gyrotron
{{output}}
A laser-driven semiconductor switch (LDSS) employing silicon (Si) and gallium arsenide (GaAs) wafers has been used to produce nanosecond-scale pulses from a 3 μs, 110 GHz gyrotron at the megawatt power level. Photoconductivity was induced in the wafers using ... ...
