Dr. Georg Müller

Research Center Karlsruhe, Germany - Institute for Pulsed Power and Microwave Technology

Pulsed Power Technology and Applications

at the Research Center Karlsruhe

The main subject of the Pulsed Power Division is the advancement of science and technology for the production of repetitive high voltage pulses (>10 Hz) with very large power (>1 GW) and pulse energy (>1 kJ) and its application to problems in energy-, environmental-, and bio-technology. The following subjects will be discussed:

- Interaction of pulsed electric fields and discharges with biological cells;

- Fragmentation and separation of compound materials and minerals with pulsed electric discharges;

- Surface modification of materials by pulsed electron beams.
