We present and demonstrate a method for balancing the two paths of a two-photon interferometer of the Hong-Ou-Mandel (HOM) variety. This method removes the difficulties of balancing the paths in this type of interferometer where a type-I crystal is u

Empirical information about surface flashover of silicon in a vacuum ambient which shows that in breakdown the current is carried primarily inside the semiconductor is presented. This observation shows that the physical processes responsible for flas

We present Schlieren images which show the existence and evolution of current filaments during the very early stages of surface‐related breakdown inside 1 cm silicon p+‐n−‐n+ structures. These images confirm our previous finding that breakdow

Semiconductors such as silicon and GaAs appear attractive for use in high voltage devices because of their high bulk dielectric strength. Typically, however, such devices fail at a voltage well below that expected due to a poorly understood, surface

We present the results of empirical studies of the breakdown of p+-i-n+, n+-i-n+, and p+-i-p+ silicon structures with approximately 1 cm long intrinsic regions. These results show that the contacts have a strong effect on the breakdown characteristic

We present high-speed shutter and streak photographs synchronized with sample current measure- ments which show clearly that in surface flashover of silicon in a vacuum ambient the current flows pri-manly in the silicon, not in the ambient. We presen

We have obtained streak and high speed shutter photographs of streamers in a trigatron spark gap filled with N2 at roughly atmospheric pressure. The streamers are initiated in the high field region surrounding the trigger pin, and propagate across th

The trigatron spark gap was first described by Craggs et al., (1946). Since that time, the device has found wide application as a demand triggered, high voltage switch. In separate applications, trigatrons have been used to switch voltages ranging be

The trigatron has been in widespread use as a demand‐triggered, high‐voltage switch for more than 40 years. In spite of the popularity and maturity of the technology, there persists an uncertainty over the basic physical mechanism(s) responsible
