Abstract: | A conceptual design of a high efficiency, high repetition-rated (rep-rated) pulsed power system for an electron-beam (e-beam)
pumped KrF laser driver for inertial fusion energy (IFE) is presented. The proposed pulsed power circuit incorporates linear
induction voltage adders to charge pulse forming lines for the generation of 900 kV, 260 ns e-beamsat several Hz. This rep-rated
power system meets the pulsed power requirements of the future IFE drivers that necessitate high amplifier efficiency as well
as high laser energy.
