Abstract: A semiconductor source of emission electrons which uses a target of a wide bandgap semiconductor having a target thickness measured from an illumination surface to an emission surface. The semiconductor source is equipped with an arrangement for producing and directing a beam of seed electrons at the illumination surface and a mechanism for controlling the energy of the seed electrons such that the energy of the seed electrons is sufficient to generate electron-hole pairs in the target. A fraction of these electron-hole pairs supply the emission electrons. Furthermore, the target thickness and the energy of the seed electrons are optimized such that the emission electrons at the emission surface are substantially thermalized. The emission of electrons is further facilitated by generating negative electron affinity at the emission surface. The source of the invention can take advantage of diamond, AlN, BN, Ga1-yAlyN and (AlN)x(SiC)1-x, wherein 0≦y≦1 and 0.2≦x≦1 and other wide bandgap semiconductors.

Abstract: The present invention pertains to an electron gun that generates an electron flow and the application of this gun to produce rf energy or for injectors. The electron gun comprises an electrostatic cavity having a first stage with emitting faces and multiple stages with emitting sections. The gun is also comprised of a mechanism for producing an electrostatic force which encompasses the emitting faces and the multiple emitting sections so electrons are directed from the emitting faces toward the emitting sections to contact the emitting sections and generate additional electrons and to further contact other emitting sections to generate additional electrons and so on then finally to escape the end of the cavity. The emitting sections preferably provide the cavity with an accelerating force for electrons inside the cavity. The multiple sections preferably include thin forward emitting surfaces. The forward emitting surfaces can be of an annular shape, or of a circular shape, or of a rhombohedron shape. The mechanism preferably includes a mechanism for producing an electrostatic electric field that provides the force and which has a radial component that prevents the electrons from straying out of the region between the first stage with emitting faces and the multiple emitting sections. Additionally, the gun includes a mechanism for producing a magnetic field to contain the electrons anywhere from the first stage with emitting faces or any emitting section and to the end of the cavity. The present invention pertains to a method for producing a flow of electrons. The method comprises the steps of moving at least a first electron in a first direction at one location. Next there is the step of striking a first area with the first electron. Then there is the step of producing additional electrons at the first area due to the first electron. Next there is the step of moving electrons from the first area to a second area and transmitting electrons through the second area and creating more electrons due to electrons from the first area striking the second area. These newly created electrons from the second area move in the first direction then strike the third area, fourth area, etc. Each area creates even more electrons in a repeating manner by moving in the first direction to multiple areas. This process is also repeated at different locations. The mechanism preferably includes a mechanism for accelerating the electrons inside the electrostatic cavity to allow the electron multiplication to continue. The mechanism preferably includes a control grid for bunching the electron flow. The present invention pertains to an electron gun. The electron gun comprises an electrostatic cavity having a first stage with electron emitting faces and multiple stages with electron emitting sections. The electron gun also comprises a mechanism for producing an electrostatic force which encompasses the electron emitting faces and the multiple electron emitting sections so electrons from the electron emitting faces and sections are directed from the emitting faces toward the emitting sections to contact the emitting sections and generate additional electrons on the opposite sides of the emitting sections and to further contact other emitting sections. The present invention pertains to a method for producing electrons. The method comprises the steps of moving at least a first electron in a first direction from a first location. Then, there is the step of striking a first area with the first electron. Next, there is the step of producing additional electrons at the first area due to the first electrons on the opposite side of the first area which was struck by the first electron. Next, there is the step of moving electrons from the first area to a second area. Then, there is the step of transmitting electrons to the second area and creating more electrons due to electrons from the first area striking the second area.

Abstract: 表示装置は、画像情報を表示する表示スクリーンと、電子を放出する発光物質を有するカソード手段とを有する。 放出された電子は電子収集器によって収集され、この電子収集器は均質な電子ビーム（EB）に電子を再分配する。 発光物質は第1の表面に配置され、この表面からは電子収集器を通過した正イオンの衝突する第1の衝突領域は排除される。 従って発光物質は実質的に第1の衝突領域には設けられず、正イオンによりカソード手段に加わる損傷は抑制される。 表示装置は、カソード手段と背面板の間にポンピングチャンバを有することが好ましく、これにより表示装置から残留気体を除去することができる。
