High power electromagnetics

Since optical full dielectric electric-field probes allow the instantaneous measurement (single shot signal) of MV/m peak electric field strength with a temporal resolution < 10 ps under extreme conditions (vacuum, high pressure, liquids, ionizing radiation), KAPTEOS solution meets the needs of High Power ElectroMagnetics (HPEM) characterization and ElectroMagnetic Pulse (EMP) measurement for defense and scientific research for intense laser-plasma interactions.

KAPTEOS has conducted many studies and manufactured numerous systems on behalf of its clients: HPEM characterization for defense, measurement of the E-field generated by electromagnetic weapons, characterization of EMP generated by intense PW laser-plasma interaction in harsh environment with X and γ rays.

They use KAPTEOS technology for their R&D
