    Abstract:
    This report presents the results of calculation of electron-optical system consisting of a sheet CNT field emission cathode with a microgrid spaced from the surface of the emitter at 100 microns. On the basis of experimental data, it has been designed electron-optical system with a sheet CNT cathode with linear convergence of 6,25, and with the beam current density of 4,46 A/cm 2 . The thickness of the beam in the interaction space is 0,16 mm. In this case, the simulation of the sheet electron beam, generated by electron gun has shown feasibility of obtaining of low-perveance flow with a small deformation in beam tunnel 0,3×0,8 at 25 mm slow-wave system length.

    In this work a complete design of an electron gun with a cold cathode is described. The electron gun has been designed in order to be used in THz vacuum amplifiers or oscillators. The electron gun delivers a circular electron beam with a radius of 25 μm and current of about 1.4 mA. The electron gun operates at beam voltage of 10 kV and perveance of 0,0014 μP.

    This paper introduces the detailed design scheme of a multi-beam electron gun applied to an S-band high power multi-beam klystron. The multi-beam gun adopts a coaxial cavity arrangement, and the total number of electron beams are 40 (19 in the inner layer and 21 in the outer layer). The working voltage of the electron gun is 60 kV, the total current is 300 A (evenly distributed on 40 electron beams), and the single beam perveance is 0.51 μP. The total perveance is 20.4 μP. The cathode loading of the gun is 12 A/cm2, which can meet the requirements of cathode operational lifetime. The beam focusing system uses a periodic reversal permanent magnet to realize miniaturization of the klystron.

    Long life high performance grid-controlled electron gun has been great extensive used in multi-beam klystron. High performance grid-controlled electron gun is the base of modern high power and broadband multi-beam klystron. We developed a tight and efficient electron gun; its perveance can be more than 0.5 micro-perveance of only one cathode.The whole electron gun has 28 independent small cathodes. The total of whole gun's perveance can be more than 18 micro-perveance. The characteristics of the gun are given in this article.

    The EGUN code is used to model a 0,7 ¿Perv electron gun with control and shadow grids under space-charge limited flow. The model parameters will be used to implement a pulsed traveling-wave tube (TWT). The simulation main goal is to obtain an electron gun to yield a 2.0 mm beam-waist with a 6.5 compression ratio. This work presents the sensitivity analysis for the following input geometric quantities: the cathode radius disc; the electrode focus angle; the cathode-to-anode distance; the grid-to-cathode distance; and the grid voltage. It was observed a decreasing of the gun perveance and the current when the grid voltage was turned on if it compared to the gun design without grids. The results also show that a shadow-grid physically modeled that led to a gun with lower current/perveance. Moreover, a 3-dimensional (3D) viewer of the EGUN output current density data is implemented. Last, a final assembling stage electron gun experimental setup is presented.

    A ferroelectric electron gun was designed and fabricated.The simulation and preliminary experimental results of the gun are reported.The gun uses a planar Ba0.67Sr0.33TiO3(BST67/33)cathode in a Pierce geometry.The gun voltage can reach 80 kV with the pulse width of 80 ns.The designed perveance of the gun is 0.15×10-6 A·V-3/2.In the experiment,the gun voltage gradually increases from 30 kV to 56 kV,and the emission current increases from 0.7 A to 2.5 A.The perveance of the gun is measured as 0.2×10-6 A·V-3/2,mearly the same as the designed value.

    A Pierce electron gun for travelling wave tube has been proposed. Based on the electrostatic Particle-In-Cell (PIC) method, the mirror structure parameters of the Pierce electron gun were simulated and optimized through the FORTRAN program developed by us. After that, the electron beam current and perveance of the designed electron gun can be reached to 373 mA and 0.28 μA/V 3/2 , respectively, when the electric potential of the cathode and the focusing electrode is zero, and that of the anode is 12 kV.
