HIGH VOLTAGE GENERATOR

摘要

A high voltage generator is provided for use in applications where current demand is low but a high voltage is required. The generator comprises a large array of voltage producing elements, such as an array of photovoltaic elements produced by laser scribing or etching of a wafer of material conventionally used for solar cells, the number of elements employed and their interconnection being such that a high voltage output of at least 1 kV is obtained.
