EHT selected for DOE SBIR to support Accelerators
The Department of Energy awarded EHT a Phase I SBIR to begin to develop a new beam kicker power system. A new short-pulse stripline kicker is required for the new 150 MeV energy recovery LINAC being developed for the Electron Ion Collider (EIC), under construction at Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL). The kicker power system must…
Read MoreIn Memory of Dr. Robert Winglee
Everyone at EHT is deeply saddened at the news of Robert’s passing. It is absolutely true that without Robert EHT would probably not have existed. Four of the five founding members studied, worked, and collaborated with Robert. I was one of Robert’s first graduate students and was his first experimental graduate student where he trusted…
Read MoreHigh Voltage Trigger System with Fast Rise Time
Dr. James Prager recently presented the initial results from a trigger system development program at the 62nd Annual Meeting of the APS Division of Plasma Physics. This solid-state trigger produced a 20 kV pulse into 50 Ω with sub 3 ns rise time while being designed to reduce size and cost. The poster can be…
Read MoreSupporting Fusion Energy
EHT is proud to support the development of fusion energy by donating our our solid-state full bridge modules to the University of Washington. These modules drive their helicity injectors on HIT to advance the state-of-the-art in fusion science. EHT and HIT have collaborated for many years. More information.

EHT won a DOE SBIR Phase I: High-Voltage Solid-State Trigger for HEDP Applications. With support of this award, EHT will develop a solid-state thyratron replacement for triggering higher voltage spark-gap switches at Sandia in support of their High Energy Density Physics program. For more information about this award, see our research page.

EHT will be exhibiting at the 2019 North American Particle Accelerator Conference (NAPAC2019) at Michigan State University in Lansing, MI from 02 SEPT to 06 SEPT 2019. This is the largest US-based particle accelerator conference and brings together hundreds of experts in many fields of accelerator science and technology.
Read MoreNew Product: Spartan
EHT is pleased to introduce Spartan, our first high-voltage nanosecond pulser specifically designed for high-power industrial applications. Spartan can efficiently drive capacitive loads, like grids, bias electrodes, and capacitive discharges, at pulse repetition frequencies up to 400 kHz and high average power. EHT incorporated water cooling to enable high-power operation in an industrial environment. EHT’s…
Read MoreNew Product: Inductive Adder
The EHT Nanosecond Pulser – Inductive Adder (NSP-IA) was initially developed with the support of the Office of Naval Research to drive 50-Ω loads to 36 kV with sub-10 ns rise times and adjustable pulse widths at high pulse repetition frequency (up to 50 kHz). EHT incorporated this research work into a family of NSP-IA…
