A simmer circuit for flash-lamp pumping of solid-state lasers

Interleaving‐based converter system with features of external auxiliary triggering and universal line input for driving medical laser equipment

“…Although this structure can drive xenon lamp, it needs more time to ionise xenon lamp and is hard to ignite the lamp again after lighting failure. The architecture in reference [26] utilises AC source to charge capacitor and exploits multi‐stage voltage‐doubling circuit to achieve high‐voltage generation, which can successfully drive xenon lamp. However, this structure has the drawbacks of including a large number of components and without arc‐sustaining ability.…”
