Ceramic capacitor for superior
functionality
Laser discharge ceramic capacitor uses a strontium-titanate based dielectric material, which exhibits a negligible piezoelectric/electrostrictive effect
Morgan Electro Ceramics, a manufacturer of electro ceramic material solutions, has developed a high voltage laser discharge ceramic capacitor for superior functionality in circuits with high peak current and repetition rates The capacitors are ideal for gas lasers, high energy pulsed power supplies, DC power supplies, lightning arrestors and X-ray power supplies

Aqueous solution conductivity determined precisely
The new Model 3084 from Amber Science is a bench top, line powered, micro-processor based conductivity instrument designed to precisely determine the conductivity of aqueous solutions.
Morgan Electro Ceramics's laser discharge ceramic capacitor uses a strontium-titanate based dielectric material, which exhibits a negligible piezoelectric/electrostrictive effect.
This allows it to be used in high peak current/high shot life applications, including those found in gas lasers and other high energy pulsed power systems.
It also offers low dielectric loss resulting in low self-heating when used in high power/high repetition rate circuits.
Additionally, the high breakdown strength/high permittivity of the material allows for storage of high energy density per unit volume.
This high energy density is maintained over the rated working voltage and temperature range by the dielectric's low capacitance/voltage coefficient and low temperature coefficient.
