摘要: A bipolar high voltage bipolar pulsing power supply is disclosed that can produce high voltage bipolar pulses with a positive high voltage pulse greater than about 2 kV followed by a negative high voltage pulse less than about −2 kV with a positive to negative dwell period between the positive high voltage pulse and the negative high voltage pulse. A high voltage bipolar pulsing power supply, for example, can reproduce high voltage pulses with a pulse repetition rate greater than about 10 kHz.
