Can this be done?

Dear All:

I have a possibly very interesting instrument application that requires the
application of a very large ac voltage, about 3 kV p-p anywhere between 20
and 50 GHz--it doesn't much matter where.

The actual power dissipated in the instrument is quite small, so I don't want
to use a radar transmitter to drive it. Pulsed operation is fine--duty
cycles of at least 1% are needed, though.

Waveguides and striplines for these frequencies are quite small, which leads
me to worry about corona, rf arcs, and so on.

I don't mind using vacuum if necessary.

Any ideas for less than about $20k in parts?

Thanks,

Phil Hobbs
