The loss-free resistor (LFR) is a two-port network with a resistive input characteristic that transfers all the energy from the input to the output terminals. A novel LFR realization based on a transmission Line, which we denoted as TLFR, is presented. The TLFR is suitable for the recycling of the energy of narrow, high-power, high-voltage pulses. Such pulses appear in some high-power lasers, such as the copper-vapor laser.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
