Versatile and efficient semi-conductor power amplifier architecture
Transistor-based power amplifiers used in particle accelerators require high power outputs. Due to the limited power output of a single transistor, the target application requires numerous transistors to be combined. The market also requires amplifier systems with different frequencies and power classes. We have therefore developed the TruAccelerate platform to establish this with a similar system architecture.

Meantime between failures (MTBF) and annual failure rate (AFR) for a large installation of solid state power amplifiers
The availability of particle accelerators is a deciding factor. Due to the complex technology, an accurate availability assessment must include the identification of individual errors and a reliable estimate of the failure rate.

Solid-state power amplifier system for particle accelerators with unique hot-swap function that withstands full back radiation
In this white paper, we present a hot-swap technology that enables individual failed power amplifier modules to be replaced during operation under ambitious reflection requirements. Particular attention must be paid to the architecture of the combiner and the controlled isolation of the modules.

It depends on the form: bipolar sputtering
Two characteristics of bipolar power supplies are presented in this article: (i) a wide pulse frequency range of up to 100 kHz and (ii) an additional brake time between the positive and negative half-wave of the square wave shape of electricity and voltage.

Sine or square wave
Since the introduction of dual magnetron sputtering (DMS) for highly insulating layers, it is possible to choose between a square wave pulse and sine wave power supply.

Auto Frequency Tuning
A countermeasure against rapid fluctuations in the plasma's impedance range is automatic frequency tuning, during which the RF generator sets its fundamental oscillation to a frequency value with better adaptation within a time frame of less than one millisecond.

New pulsed DC technology
Direct current and pulsed direct current sputtering are some of the most frequently used sputtering techniques in the industrial sector. The introduction of pulsed direct current technology facilitated the mass production of coatings made of non-conductive compounds created by reactive magnetron sputtering.

Application of pulsed DC sputtering
One of the most interesting resorption materials for solar cells are copper-indium-selenide (CIS) based materials whose properties can be changed by replacing a part of the indium with gallium to make Cu(In,Ga)Se2, known as CIGS.

DC power for resistance heating in precise MOCVD processes
Metal Organic Chemical Vapor Phase Deposition (MOCVD) is a highly complex procedure for the growth of crystalline layers. MOCVD is implemented for the manufacture of light emitting diodes (LEDs), lasers, transistors, solar cells and other electronic and opto-electronic components, for example, and is the key technology for future markets with high growth potential. TruHeat DC 3000 is the perfect candidate for these applications.

High efficiency and innovative GaN generator in the 2.45-GHz-ISM band for high-tech microwave applications
To date, the main obstacle and greatest disadvantage in the industrialization of microwave processes has been the lack of "options". Up to now, only mechanically mobile components such as rotating plates, agitators, etc. were available to influence the homogeneity of the heating process and to facilitate a targeted temperature distribution and a reproducible heating process.
