Abstract:
A Tera Hertz reflex klystron includes an electron emission unit, a resonant unit and an output unit. The electron emission is used to emit a plurality of electrons. The electron emission unit defines a first opening. The resonant unit comprises a resonant cavity frame. The resonant cavity frame comprises a top wall and a bottom wall and defines a resonant cavity. The top wall and the bottom wall faces with each other. The bottom wall comprises a bottom opening. The top wall comprises a top opening and at least one outputting hole. The bottom opening and the first opening are merged with each other. The output unit being configured to output Tera Hertz waves. The plurality of electrons are transferred to the output unit from the at least one outputting hole.
Abstract:
A device for collimation or focusing of a relativistic electron packet, obtained in particular by laser-plasma acceleration, including a gas cloud and a laser capable of emitting a laser pulse focused in the gas cloud in order to create therein a wave of focusing electric and magnetic fields. The invention also relates to a device for emission of a collimated or focused relativistic electron packet. The invention further relates to a collimation or focusing method for a relativistic electron packet, and to methods for emission of a collimated or focused relativistic electron packet.
Abstract:
A charged-particle beam control system includes a plurality of external magnets that generate an axially-varying longitudinal magnetic (AVLM)/axially-varying quadrupole magnetic (AVQM) field. A plurality of external electrode geometries generates an axially-varying longitudinal electrostatic (AVLE)/axially-varying quadrupole electrostatic (AVQE) field. The external electrode geometries and magnets control and confine a charged-particle beam of elliptic cross-section.
Abstract:
An improved Klystron device is disclosed which has opposed electrostatic (ES) magnetic field generating members which are uniformly spaced along a longitudinal axis to form an electron beam chamber. The ES magnetic field generating members produce a magnetic flux which confines an electron beam passing through the chamber when an alternating current (AC) is imposed upon the magnetic field generating members. An additional improvement includes a chamber formed from a single sheet of electron conductive metal having a ladder-like structure symmetrical about a longitudinal hinge which permits the structure to be folded about the hinge to form a suitable electron beam chamber.
