Hello, 

  I am going to be working on modulating the output of my Tube coil, and
am curently working on designing a filtered DC supply from a Microwave
oven Trany. My first step will be to make the fullwave rectifier. As, I
am not an EE and have not much training in the field (I work in the area
of Radiation Health Physics sciences), I have some very basic questions
regarding diodes in general. First, as HV, High current diodes are not
the easyest things to obtain, what are the ramifications of series
implementation of lower voltage for higher voltage? Perhaps, I am a bit
to familiar with Capacitors and am getting confused? Second, well, if I
am going to need to find a supplier of HV Diodes, does anyone on this
list have any sugestions? About one Kilovolt AC at 35 Amps has been the
highest I'v seen recently. Any help is more than welcome. Thanks,

David Trimmell
