Forming of high-voltage nanosecond and subnanosecond pulses using standard power rectifying diodesA new simple circuit for producing high-voltage nano- and subnanosecond pulses at high repetition rates is presented. Output peak voltages and rise times are 6 kV, 2 ns or 8 kV, 0.1 ns. Only standard commercial components are employed. Diode parameters that limit achievable voltage levels have been studied.Rev. Sci.
