Field distribution in the switch section is regulated by a metal field regulation ring and several gradient rings. In order to reduce the jitter further, a SFB/N2 mixture is chosen as the switching medium. The generalized standard deviation of the self-breakdown voltage and the deviation of the average value from the prediction is less than 4.4% and 13% respectively. Linearity of the self-breakdown voltage is better than 0.95. Triggered by a laser pulse of 35 mJ/3 ns, the delay is about 26 ns at a working voltage of 85±3% USB （Self-breakdown Voltage）. Maximum deviation of delay is less than =t=2.5 ns. Jitter is less than 1.5 ns. The delay and jitter decrease with the increase in the working ratio （the ratio of working voltage to USB）, pressure or voltage.展开更多
