Abstract |
The design of autonomous ultrahigh-voltage generators with no moving metallic parts based on transverse explosive shock wave depolarization of Pb(Zr(0.52)Ti(0.48))O(3) (PZT 52∕48) poled ferroelectrics was explored and studied. It follows from experimental results that the output voltage produced by the shock-wave ferroelectric generators (FEGs) is directly proportional to the number of PZT 52/48 elements connected in series. It was demonstrated that miniature FEGs (volume less than 180 cm(3)) were capable of reliably producing output voltage pulses with amplitudes exceeding 120 kV which is the record reported in open literature.
