Abstract: This invention allows combining broadband GW(10+9 Watt), peak power to achieve MV/m(10+6 Volt/meter), and GV/m(10+9 Volt/meter), radiated E-fields, in the range of air or vacuum breakdown in the entire electromagnetic spectrum, including optical frequencies and beyond. Use of many antennas and independently triggered generators allows achieving GV/m field, while by preventing the E-field induced breakdown it provides control of peak power and energy content at targets. The achieved broadband MV/m E-field levels and energy density significantly exceed levels required for destruction of distant electronic targets; therefore this invention radically improves the effectiveness of the electromagnetic weapons. Furthermore, collimating multiplicity of MV/m beams allows reaching GV/m E-field that exceeds by orders of magnitude the air or vacuum breakdown needed for broadband plasma excitation at resonance plasma frequencies in the 300 GHz range, permitting energy efficient plasma research leading to fusion.

Abstract: This invention allows combining broadband GW (10+9 Watt) peak power to achieve MV/m (10+6 Volt/meter), and GV/m (10+9 Volt/meter), radiated E-fields of air or vacuum breakdown across the entire electromagnetic spectrum, including optical frequencies. Use of multiple antennas and independently triggered generators allows achieving GV/m fields, while by preventing the E-field induced breakdown it provides control of power and energy content at targets. The achieved broadband MV/m E-field levels and energy density significantly exceed levels required for destruction of distant electronic targets; therefore, this invention radically improves the effectiveness of electromagnetic weapons. Furthermore, collimating multiple MV/m beams allows reaching GV/m E-fields that exceed by orders of magnitude the air or vacuum breakdown needed for broadband plasma excitation at resonance plasma frequencies in the 300 GHz range, permitting energy-efficient plasma research leading to fusion.
