Abstract
Traditional plasma voltage generator circuits consist mainly of fly-back or pulse forming networks. These systems tend supply plasma generating pulses to plasma reactors at frequencies less than 30 kHz with most being less than 5 kHz. In addition these traditional plasma voltage generators are limited in the ability to adjust to dynamic reactor conditions, are energy inefficient and are limited in the amount of material ionized. An innovative drive system is presented herein that is energy efficient, can operate at frequencies below and well above 30 kHz, and can react to dynamic conditions in the plasma reactor allowing much greater flexibility and enhanced operating capabilities.
