Nitrogen Gas Plasma Generated by a Static Induction Thyristor as a Pulsed Power Supply Inactivates Adenovirus

Adenovirus is one of the most important causative agents of iatrogenic infections derived from contaminated medical devices or finger contact. In this study, we investigated whether nitrogen gas plasma, generated by applying a short high-voltage pulse to nitrogen using a static induction thyristor power supply (1.5 kilo pulse per second), exhibited a virucidal effect against adenoviruses. Viral...

Modeling the Characteristics of a Magnetically Switched Pulse-forming Line*

Recent developments in magnetic switching technology have enabled linear induction accelerators to operate at high repetition rates. These accelerators provide high-average-power electron beams for many applications. However, some applications, such as free-electron lasers, also require a beam with a very narrow energy spread. As a result, the characteristics of the waveform driving the inducti...

High-Accurate Low-Voltage Analog CMOS Current Divider Modify by Neural Network and TLBO Algorithm

A high accurate and low-voltage analog CMOS current divider which operates with a single power supply voltage is designed in 0.18µm CMOS standard technology. The proposed divider uses a differential amplifier and transistor in triode region in order to perform the division. The proposed divider is modeled with neural network while TLBO algorithm is used to optimize it. The proposed optimiza...
