摘　　要：激光触发真空开关在脉冲功率系统中有较好的应用前景,该文设计一种多级激光触发真空开关,由一个激光触发间隙与两个对称的冰壶形电极串联而成,并基于可拆卸真空腔体搭建了激光触发多级真空开关的实验平台。实验研究了不同激光能量、不同工作电压、不同分压比条件下,开关的触发时延特性。实验结果表明,多级开关的触发时延不仅与外部的激光能量以及触发电压有关,也与3个间隙之间的分压比有关。随着激光能量和工作电压的增大,开关的导通时延和抖动随之减小。在相同的外部条件下,通过3个间隙之间合适的工作参数配合,可以获得更加优化的时延特性。当激光能量为30 mJ,工作电压为30 kV时,分压比为4∶1∶1的三间隙激光触发多级真空开关触发时延低至(167±3.7)ns。High-voltage laser-triggered vacuum switches have good application prospects in pulsed power systems.Laser-triggered vacuum switch(LTVS)is a new pulsed power closed switch that combines pulsed laser technology with vacuum switching technology.Compared with laser-triggered gas switches,laser-triggered vacuum switches can obtain similar or even better delay characteristics under the same conditions while avoiding a series of technical problems of gas switches.As the application areas of pulsed power technology continue to expand and system capacity grows,LTVS has the potential to become a switching device for high power applications.In this paper,a multi-gap laser-triggered vacuum switch is designed,including a laser-triggered gap and two symmetrical curling stainless steel electrodes in series.Based on the detachable vacuum chamber,a laser-triggered multi-gap vacuum switch test platform was built,and triggering characteristics of the multi-gap switch were experimentally studied under different laser energies,different operating voltages,and different voltage split ratios.The delay characteristics of the three-gap laser trigger switch are compared and analyzed,the main factors affecting the delay characteristics of the multi-gap series switch are explored,and the optimization design scheme of the working parameters of the high-performance multi-gap switch is obtained.The experimental results show that the trigger delay time of the multi-gap switch is not only related to the external working conditions,but also affected by the working parameters among the three gaps.With the increase of laser energy and operating voltage,the trigger delay and jitter time of the switch decrease.Better time-delay characteristics can be obtained by matching with appropriate working parameters.The on-trigger delay of the three-gap LTVS is determined by the on-delay of each gap and is mainly affected by the delay of its first self-breakdown gap.The remaining self-breakdown gap can be quickly turned on at a steeper impulse voltage.The vol
