A high power fast switch for generating pulses of current to a load from a high voltage power source. A laser beam illuminates a cathode which simulates the emission of pulses of electrons which illuminate a diamond target. The pulses of electrons cause the diamond target to become conductive permitting high power pulses of electric current to pass through the diamond target from a high voltage source to a load. In a preferred embodiment a Klystron buncher compresses the electron pulses onto the diamond target.
