Electron gun from an oscilloscope CRT Setup of an electron gun. 1. Hot cathode.2. Wehnelt cylinder.3. Anode. A direct current, electrostatic thermionic electron gun is formed from several parts: a hot cathode, which is heated to create a stream of electrons via thermionic emission; electrodes generating an electric field to focus the electron beam (such as a Wehnelt cylinder); and one or more ...
A cross-section view, showing how a Wehnelt localizes emissions at the filament tip and serves as a convergent electrostatic lens. A Wehnelt cylinder (also known as Wehnelt cap, grid cap or simply Wehnelt) is an electrode in the electron gun assembly of some thermionic devices, used for focusing and control of the electron beam.
The basic components of a typical electron-beam processing device include: [1] an electron gun (consisting of a cathode, grid, and anode), used to generate and accelerate the primary beam; and, a magnetic optical (focusing and deflection) system, used for controlling the way in which the electron beam impinges on the material being processed ...
Schottky-emitter electron source of an Electron microscope. A field emission gun (FEG) is a type of electron gun in which a sharply pointed Müller-type [clarification needed] emitter [1]: 87–128 is held at several kilovolts negative potential relative to a nearby electrode, so that there is sufficient potential gradient at the emitter surface to cause field electron emission.
In electron emission devices, especially electron guns, the thermionic electron emitter will be biased negative relative to its surroundings. This creates an electric field of magnitude E at the emitter surface. Without the field, the surface barrier seen by an escaping Fermi-level electron has height W equal to the
Multiple types of evaporation materials and electron guns can be used simultaneously in a single EBPVD system, each having a power from tens to hundreds of kilowatts. Electron beams can be generated by thermionic emission, field electron emission or the anodic arc method. The generated electron beam is accelerated to a high kinetic energy and ...
A diagram of a Rhodotron. The electron beam is in red. E is the electron gun, L is an electron lens, C is the radiofrequency cavity, and M is a bending magnet. A Rhodotron is an industrial electron accelerator first proposed in 1987 by J. Pottier of the French Atomic Energy Agency (CEA), [34] manufactured by Belgian company Ion Beam ...
