ABSTRACT:
A pseudospark switch including an insulator which can withstand high temperature plasma and is arranged between both electrodes thereof, thereby being capable of preventing the electrodes from being damaged while allowing a large amount of charge to flow instantaneously. The high power pseudospark switch includes first and second hollow electrodes facing each other, the hollow electrodes being open at facing ends thereof and closed at opposite ends thereof, respectively, an inert gas inlet port provided at the closed end wall of the first hollow electrode, a vacuum pump connecting port provided at the closed end wall of the second hollow electrode, a first electrode arranged at the open end of the first hollow electrode, a second electrode arranged at the open end of the second hollow electrode in such a manner that it faces the first electrode, and an insulator interposed between the first and second electrodes.
