Abstract

The results of experimental investigations of wide-aperture (100 × 100 mm) plasma-electrode Pockels are presented. Time characteristics, contrast, transmission factor, and optical uniformity of the cell are measured. It has been found that the half-wave effective voltage of the cell is 10 kV, the duration of the transmission window can vary from 250 to 550 ns, its leading and trailing edges are 40–50 and 70–100 ns in duration, respectively, and the time of the cell plasma electrode formation is 40 ± 5 ns.
