To promote the studies and application of solid-state Marx generators, we briefly introduce the latest research Status of solid-state Marx generators in recent academic world. After analyzing some key issues of solid-state Marx gene- rators including the isolated charging of capacitors, the pulse peaking, and the load capacity enhancement, we also discuss the future of solid-state Marx generators. Compared with the conventional Marx generator based on gas switches, sol- id-state Marx generators have three main advantages, namely, customizable parameters, high repetitive rate, and long lifetime, due to the independent closing and opening of solid-state switches. Different charging methods are adopted to realize the insulation between the low-voltage charging supply and the high-voltage pulsed output. With pulse peaking technology, the output pulses of Marx Generators can be modified to have rising edges of tens of nanoseconds. Using customized circuits with solid-state Marx generators can obtain specific voltage or current waveforms to fit for different loads such as resistance, capacitance, inductance, and their combinations with nonlinear characteristics. With the devel- opment of solid-state switches and power electronics, solid-state generators are developing to be increasingly miniaturized, integrated, and modularized, to support the fast growing demands of pulsed power applications.
