Constructing a small EMP device?

[Zeteg]

Well, it's more or less for robot constructon thing. Does anyone know if it's possible to construct a small EMP device that'll only have a couple meters worth of area effect? If there is, any hint on how to do it, or how much it would cost? Everything that I've found so far includes some type of nuclear detonation...

Thanks :)

Try a web search for "vircator", and/or "explosively pumped flux compression generator". One link that looks reasonable is:
