    Abstract: A cathode device including an emitter element for generating electrons. The emitter element can have an outer periphery and a distal tip. The tip can have a first angled surface that angles inwardly from the outer periphery, and a second angled surface that angles inwardly and is separated and inwardly offset from the first angled surface by a shoulder. A graphite cap which can be solid, extends around the emitter element and has an internal angled surface that engages the first angled surface of the tip of the emitter element, forming a gap of a controlled size separating the internal angled surface of the graphite cap from the second angled surface of the tip of the emitter element.

    Abstract: An electron source is made from mixed-metal carbide materials of high refractory nature. Producing field-enhanced thermionic emission, i.e., thermal-field or extended Schottky emission, from these materials entails the use of a certain low work function crystallographic direction, such as, for example, (100), (210), and (310). These materials do not naturally facet because of their refractory nature. The disclosed electron source made from transition metal carbide material is especially useful when installed in a scanning electron microscope (SEM) performing advanced imaging applications that require a high brightness, high beam current source.

    Abstract: An electron gun cathode (104) is column shaped, and emits electrons by being heated. A holder (103), which covers the bottom and sides of the electron gun cathode, has electrical conductivity and holds the electron gun cathode, and is composed of a material that does not easily react with the electron gun cathode when in a heated state, is provided. The tip of the electron gun cathode (104) protrudes from the holder (103) so as to be exposed, and electrons are emitted from the tip toward the front by applying an electric field to the tip.
