OTHER
APPLICATIONS
LINEAR
INDUCTION ACCELERATORS
Metglas® cores
are used in linear induction
accelerators to couple voltage
pulse to the charge particle
beam. These non-saturating cores
are places in the accelerator
cavities through which the beam
passes. They function as 1:1
impedance matching transformers
whose secondary voltage accelerates
the particles in the beam. Metglas®
cores offer high flux change,
which minimizes the diameter
of these large cores and, therefore,
the size of the entire accelerator.
HIGH
VOLTAGE TRANSFORMERS
Metglas® cores
are used as interstage start-up
transformers in some MPC systems.
The use of high voltage transformers
allows the designer to select
input switches with reduced
voltage ratings. Isolation transformers
made with Metglas®
cores used with series connected
secondaries can add up extremely
high output voltage from isolated
input voltage.
