In this Letter we research the space charge limiting current value at which the oscillating virtual cathode is formed in the relativistic electron beam as a function of the external magnetic field guiding the beam electrons. It is shown that the space charge limiting (critical) current decreases with growth of the external magnetic field, and that there is an optimal induction value of the magnetic field at which the critical current for the onset of virtual cathode oscillations in the electron beam is minimum. For the strong external magnetic field the space charge limiting current corresponds to the analytical relation derived under the assumption that the motion of the electron beam is one-dimensional [D.J. Sullivan, J.E. Walsh, E. Coutsias, in: V.L. Granatstein, I. Alexeff (Eds.), Virtual Cathode Oscillator (Vircator) Theory, in: High Power Microwave Sources, vol. 13, Artech House Microwave Library, 1987, Chapter 13]. Such behavior is explained by the characteristic features of the dynamics of electron space charge in the longitudinal and radial directions in the drift space at the different external magnetic fields. 相似文献

An experimental investigation is made of the influence of local nonuniformities of a mirror-configuration magnetic field on
oscillations of the space charge and the structure of a long-pulse relativistic electron beam. It is found that the outcome
depends on the axial configuration of the nonuniformity. A nonuniformity near the cathode can substantially reduce the amplitude
of the oscillations and improve the beam transport. The creation of a nonuniformity far from the cathode leads to an accelerated
increase in the oscillations and causes spreading of the transverse structure of the beam. A possible explanation is given
for the mechanism responsible for the influence of these local magnetic field nonuniformities assuming reflection of the cathode
plasma and electron flux from the magnetic mirror, and also allowing for a jump in the drift velocity.

The results of theoretical and experimental studies of collective processes in helical electron beams in gyrotron-type devices are generalized. Main attention is paid to low-frequency oscillations associated with the development of instability in the space charge trapped between the cathode and the magnetic mirror. The mechanism of evolution of instability is substantiated and the effect of oscillations on the main parameters of the electron flow determining its quality is analyzed. Data on the suppression of low-frequency oscillations and resulting enhancement of the gyrotron efficiency are considered. 相似文献

The development of oscillations of the space charge and potential in the adiabatic trap of a gyrotron between the cathode
and the cavity is studied numerically. The PIC method is applied, with the real two-dimensional distributions of the electric
and magnetic fields taken into account. Secondary emission is included into the numerical model, as well as such factors as
the electron beam space charge, thermal velocities of electrons, and emitter roughness. The value of the trapped space charge
as a function of time is calculated. Time dependences of the potential in various cross-sections of the formation system are
traced. The amplitudes of its variable component have been found and then the corresponding frequency spectra have been calculated.
The process of cathode bombardment is investigated. The energy distribution and time dependence of the current in the electron
beam coming to the operating space are found. Some ways to reduce the oscillations of the potential and the space charge are
discussed. 相似文献

A technique for controlling the electric field distribution near the cathode of a magnetron injection gun is developed. The feasibility of improving the quality of a helical electron beam by optimizing the electric field distribution in a pulsed 4-mm-wave gyrotron is studied theoretically and experimentally. Field distributions are obtained that minimize the electron velocity spread in the beam, coefficient of electron reflection from a magnetic mirror, and intensity of parasitic low-frequency oscillations. It is demonstrated that the gyrotron efficiency can be increased through a rise in the beam quality at the optimized electric field distribution. 相似文献

采用全电磁PIC粒子模拟方法研究了磁场对球头阴极二极管物理特性的影响。结果表明外加磁场主要是通过对二极管束流轨迹的改变来影响二极管的物理特性。由于外加磁场将约束其产生电子束的发散,结果使其空间电荷限制电流减小,其值在无外加磁场并且自磁场可以忽略时的空间电荷限制电流值的0.5~1倍范围内。当外加磁场足够强时,束流轨迹主要受外加磁场控制,二极管产生的电子束既不箍缩也不发散。强外加磁场条件下的空间电荷限制电流近似为无外加磁场时的一半;在无外加磁场条件下,在阳极处的束流半径随二极管电压电流的增大而减小,空间电荷限制电流增强因子随束流半径的减小而减小,随二极管电压电流增大而减小。这一系列结果是在二极管电流小于其自箍缩临界电流条件下得到的。 相似文献

In this paper, we have analyzed the design parameters of the axially - extracted virtual cathode oscillator, which is high-power
microwave source based on the concept of the virtual cathode associated with the intense relativistic electrons beam oscillations
in the electrostatic potential well. The microwave emission by the virtual cathode oscillator results from both the space
and time oscillations of virtual cathode and reflexing electrons trapped in the potential well between the virtual and real
cathodes. In the X-band frequency spectrum 700 MW microwave peak power has been obtained analytically by the solid electron
beam of 300 kV and 20 kA for feasible design parameters. The analysis has been performed by 2-dimensional, relativistic, electromagnetic
particle-in-cell simulation code XOOPIC. 相似文献

Results are presented from experimental and numerical studies of the spatial and temporal microstructure of a relativistic
heavy-current electron beam of nanosecond duration. The beam is formed in a magnetically insulated coaxial diode with an edge-emitting
cathode. Microcurrent oscillations and azimuthal nonuniformity of the beam are seen, the scale of the latter depending on
the maximum cyclotron radius of the electrons. Two- and three-dimensional numerical calculations performed by the macroparticle
method show that space-charge oscillations near the cathode produce these phenomena even in the case of a uniform emission
surface. It is shown that the increase in the full current of the beam that occurs during the pulse in a weak magnetic field
is connected with the gradual propagation of emission to the cylindrical outside surface of the cathode. A study is made of
the effect of the discreteness of the emission surface on the impedance and current of the vacuum diode. The linear increase
seen in current during the pulse with a small number of emission centers is attributed to an increase in their size as a result
of expansion of the cathode plasma.

In the present work, numerical studies on the effects of weakly relativistic ponderomotive force and space charge in the nonlinear interaction of a high-power microwave beam with a plasma are carried out. It is shown that, the profiles of the electron density and dielectric permittivity contain high peaks, and modulation of wavelength occurs in electron density distribution by increasing the microwave energy flux. In addition, it is indicated that the profiles of the electric and magnetic fields in relativistic regime are lengthened more than non-relativistic regime by increasing the initial electron density and the relativistic effects cause the increase in oscillation wavelength of electron density, dielectric permittivity and space charge field, in comparison with the non-relativistic regime. Finally, the results of the research show that the steepening in electron density distributions and their oscillation wavelength are enhanced, when the relativistic effects appear. 相似文献

The effect of the electron transverse and longitudinal velocity spread at the entrance to the interaction space on wide-band chaotic oscillations in intense multiple-velocity beams is studied theoretically and numerically under the conditions of formation of a virtual cathode. It is found that an increase in the electron velocity spread causes chaotization of virtual cathode oscillations. An insight into physical processes taking place in a virtual-cathode multiple-velocity beam is gained by numerical simulation. The chaotization of the oscillations is shown to be associated with additional electron structures, which were separated out by constructing charged particle distribution functions. 相似文献

Mechanisms underlying the formation and dynamics of a virtual cathode (VC) in a tubular electron beam subjected to a magnetic
field are studied using a numerical 2D model. Two qualitatively different competing types of space charge dynamics near the
VC are discovered. Which of them predominates depends on the magnetic field strength. The beam current critical density at
which a nonstationary VC forms in the system is also strongly dependent on the magnetic field. It is shown that the optimal
strength of the magnetic field that minimizes the beam current critical density depends on the Brillouin magnetic field. 相似文献

Low impedance relativistic electron accelerators currently produce nominal 50 ns pulses that are capable of power levels near 1 Terawatt at impedances near 1 Ohm. The time-dependent diode impedance characteristic plays a major role In efficiently coupling the pulse line power to an electron beam. In an effort to establish the desired accelerator impedance match early in the pulse, experimentalists have investigated cold cathode vacuum breakdown and subsequent space charge limited emission during the ~ 100 kV machine prepulse. This machine prepulse is due to capacitive coupling across the accelerator switches, and consequently cannot be independently studied and optimized. In this paper, a technique for externally introducing a typically 100 kV, low power conditioning pulse prior to the main pulse of a low impedance relativistic electron diode is described, along with techniques for reducing the machine prepulse to less than 5 kV. For various cathode geometries, the breakdown field, closure velocity, and time-dependent impedance established by this external prepulse is measured and compared with an empirical model of space charge limited emission from a hydro-dynamically expanding plasma. 3 Experimental evidence is presented that the high current accelerator impedance is effectively controlled by the relative time delay between the start of the prepulse and the main pulse. 相似文献

热场致发射阴极所产生的强流电子束具有很强的空间电荷效应,为研究该效应对热场致发射过程中诺廷汉(Nottingham)效应的影响机理,在理论分析的基础上,用数值方法研究了不同逸出功和多个外加电场条件下考虑空间电荷效应对诺廷汉效应结果的影响,并与不考虑空间电荷效应时的情形进行了对比. 结果表明:空间电荷效应的强弱会显著影响到阴极表面的稳态电场,进而对诺廷汉效应产生不可忽略的影响;当逸出功在3.0–4.52 eV、外加电场在3×109–9×109 V/m范围内时,考虑空间电荷效应的影响后,热场致发射电子所带走的平均能量较不考虑空间电荷效应时增加0–2.5 eV,且温度越高或外加电场越大时,该增加值越大;考虑空间电荷效应对诺廷汉效应的影响后,热场致发射电子从阴极带走的平均能量随外加电场的增加呈非线性下降规律;当阴极表面温度较高时,诺廷汉效应中的冷却效应随二极管间隙距离的变大而增强.
