Surface-plasmon resonance-enhanced multiphoton emission of high-brightness electron beams from a nanostructured copper cathode.
We experimentally investigate surface-plasmon assisted photoemission to enhance the efficiency of metallic photocathodes for high-brightness electron sources. A nanohole array-based copper surface was designed to exhibit a plasmonic response at 800 nm, fabricated using the focused ion beam milling technique, optically characterized and tested as a photocathode in a high power radio frequency ph...
متن کاملAnnular electron beam with virtual cathode in a coaxial diode with magnetic insulation
Accumulation of electrons in course of transportation of tubular high-current electron beam in a coaxial diode with magnetic insulation was studied in the situation of counterstream electron motion occurring due to the formation of a virtual cathode. Accumulation of electrons in these flows is accompanied by gradual increase in their relative energy spread and simultaneous decrease in the maxim...
متن کامل1450-nm high-brightness wavelength-beam combined diode laser array.
We have demonstrated wavelength beam combining of a 1450-nm diode laser array with a novel smile compensation method. We have achieved 20-W cw from a 25-element single bar with an M(2) of 1.9 (fast axis) x 10 (wavelength-beam-combined dimension).
متن کاملDemonstration of Field Emission Cathode Operation in a Plasma Environment
Field emission cathodes are being considered for use on low-power electrostatic and electromagnetic propulsion systems as well as on electrodynamic tether systems. In these systems, field emission cathodes prevent negative spacecraft charging by emitting a lowpower electron beam that is accommodated by the ambient plasma. Prototype cathodes were tested at the University of Michigan as part of a...
متن کاملExperimental Characterization of a Carbon Nanotube Field Emission Cathode
There is interest in the use of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) to create a field emission cathode. The primary benefit of this cathode is that a gas flow is not required to create electrons, which is of critical importance for space missions that must minimize propellant mass. A field emission cathode consisting of CNT arrays is fabricated by the Georgia Tech Research Institute and the Georgia Tech Hi...
