In the research of bioelectrics, bipolar pulses appear to enhance the membrane effects by
creating anode on both sides of the cell sequentially. On the other hand, the membrane …

Biological effects caused by a nanosecond pulse, such as cell membrane permeabilization,
peripheral nerve excitation and cell blebbing, can be reduced or cancelled by applying …

Design and operation of a pulse generator based on fast recovery diodes and shorted
transmission lines are presented. The generator produces 3.5 ns wide, plusmn350 V …
