Abstract

The bistable optically-controlled semiconductor switch (BOSS) is the only completely controllable high power solid-state switch which operates on sub-nanosecond to microsecond time scales. The present state of BOSS technology for pulsed power applications is discussed, including the limits of operation and potential extensions of these limits. Experiments to measure the electric field distribution during switching and the threshold breakdown fields for small gap (/spl sime/10's of /spl mu/m) GaAs switches are described. From these results, operating parameters for a laser diode controlled BOSS configuration are presented.

激光二极管驱动双稳态光导开关的研究进展
双稳态光控半导体开关(BOSS)是目前唯一一种在亚纳秒到微秒时间尺度上完全可控的高功率固态开关。讨论了脉冲功率应用的BOSS技术的现状,包括工作限制和这些限制的潜在扩展。本文描述了小间隙(/spl sime/10’s of /spl mu/m)砷化镓开关开关过程中的电场分布和阈值击穿场的测量实验。根据这些结果,给出了激光二极管控制的BOSS结构的工作参数。
