Patent
Vacuum-surface flashover switch with cantilever conductors
TL;DR: In this article, a dielectric-wall linear accelerator is improved by a highvoltage, fast rise-time switch that includes a pair of electrodes between which are laminated alternating layers of isolated conductors and insulators.
Patent
Compact accelerator for medical therapy
TL;DR: In this article, an integrated particle generator-linear accelerator with a compact, small-scale construction capable of producing an energetic proton beam or other nuclei and transporting the beam direction to a medical therapy patient without the need for bending magnets or other hardware often required for remote beam transport is presented.
Patent
Optically- initiated silicon carbide high voltage switch
TL;DR: An improved photoconductive switch having a SiC or other wide band gap substrate material, such as GaAs and field-grading liners composed of SiN formed on the substrate adjacent the electrode perimeters or adjacent the substrate perimeters for grading the electric fields is described in this article.

The Dielectric Wall Accelerator
TL;DR: The dielectric wall accelerators as mentioned in this paper, a class of induction accelerators, employ a novel insulating beam tube to impress a longitudinal electric field on a bunch of charged particles.
