    摘要: This invention describes a means by which performance characteristics of capacitors can be improved. This is achieved by reducing the temperature, preferably but not exclusively to cryogenic temperatures below 100 K. This is based on the observation that the dielectric strength, dielectric losses and plate losses in many capacitors, such as film capacitors, improve as the temperature is decreased. A cryogenic capacitor bank is also described, which exhibits energy densities up to four times those of conventional, room-temperature capacitor banks. Cryogenic capacitors can be combined with cryogenically operated semiconductors or with superconductors in such a way as to reduce the size, weight, and losses of a complete system.

    摘要: A gradient amplifier for use in magnetic resonance imaging equipment employs a low voltage DC power supply connected in series between a pair of higher voltage DC power supplies, the latter supplies serving to provide increased power for rapid gradient switching and the former supply providing correction current to produce the desired voltage output. The high voltage DC power supplies preferably comprise multiple DC units which can be combined to provide finer steps of control prior to correction by the lower voltage supply. The low voltage DC power supply preferably comprise one or more linear amplifiers connected in series, or one or more switchmode amplifiers connected in series. The DC power supplies are controlled in an open loop manner from a gradient signal that designates the desired current for the gradient coil and the amplifiers are operated in a closed loop responding to to a feedback signal from the gradient coil.

    摘要: A gradient current speed-up circuit, for use in a higher-speed NMR imaging system having an associated gradient coil, has a gradient power amplifier receiving an input analog signal controlling the current in an amplifier output circuit connected in series between first and second portions of a single gradient coil. Semiconductor switching elements selectively connect the coil portion-amplifier-coil portion between first and second potential sources, and are turned on and off in selected patterns to cause a current to be suddenly applied to, and removed from, flow through the associated gradient coil and the amplifier output circuit.

    摘要: In one embodiment, referred to as the "high-pass" version, the radio frequency (RF) coil is made up of two conductive loop elements, each including serially-connected capacitors. The loop elements are electrically interconnected by axial conductive segments having inherent inductances associated therewith. Electrically, the coil can be viewed as a slow wave delay line structure wrapped around a cylinder and connected to itself. The coil can be energized by connecting a source of RF power across one of the capacitors in the loop elements. In another embodiment, termed the "band-pass" version, the axial conductive segments, as well as the conductive loop elements, are provided with capacitors.
