Design, manufacturing, and supply of Solid-State Power Amplifiers (SSPAs) operating at 175 MHz CW for the IFMIF-DONES (International Fusion Materials Irradiation Facility DEMO Oriented Neutron Source) Radiofrequency System, as part of the WPENS (Work Package Early Neutron Source), which will operate with multiple RF stations with power levels ranging from 20kW to 200kW.
[ALBA] 1.5 GHz CW SSPA for ALBA Storage Ring (2021 - 2022)
Design, manufacturing, supply, and installation of CW 1.5 GHz RF Solid State Power Amplifiers (SSPA) for the 3rd harmonic RF system of the ALBA storage ring in CELL’s facility, with future scalability up to 20 kW, enhancing beam stability and optimizing the longitudinal beam distribution to improve the overall efficiency and performance of the synchrotron light source.
[ALBA] 500 MHz CW SSPA for ALBA RF system (2021 - 2022)
Design, manufacturing, and supply of CW 500MHz Solid State Power Amplifier (SSPA) for the ALBA synchrotron RF system.

Relevant R&D projects

[HORIZON EUROPE] RF2.0 Research Facility (2024)
It is a collaborative initiative with partners such as KIT, ALBA, CERN, DESY, HZB, MAX IV, and others, aiming to design, develop, and validate novel solutions for transforming particle accelerators into more sustainable and energy-efficient infrastructures. The project focuses on developing highly-efficient components, integrating AI-assisted power management, low carbon technologies, and flexible power consumption approaches. These solutions will be validated through four demonstrator projects, with a goal of reducing the environmental impact and optimizing energy use in research facilities (2024-2027).
[CDTI] HP-SSPA-AC (Very High-Power Solid-State Power Amplifiers for Scientific Applications) (2016 - 2019)
This E&D project aims to research, design, develop, and validate a new range of very high-power solid-state amplifiers for scientific applications, offering a modular, scalable solution with high built-in redundancy that significantly enhances service availability in case of amplifier element failure, while also substantially reducing the total cost of ownership (TCO) compared to traditional IOT systems.
