Coaxial double electron beam electron gun

Abstract

The invention belongs to a coaxial double electron beam electron gun matched with a gyrotron (an oscillator and an amplifier), an electron gun barrel body, a base, a cathode sleeve with a heating wireand two electron beam emission rings, inner and outer anodes and a control anode. The inner anode, the outer anode and the cathode sleeve are oppositely arranged by employing a coaxial line, the inner anode and the outer anode are arranged in a stack mode, and the control anode is arranged among the inner and outer anodes and the cathode sleeve to regulate the size of an electron beam current andthe rotation speed and the axial speed of the electron beam in the gyrotron. The coaxial double electron beam electron gun can rapidly regulate the output power and can perform any regulation for theworking efficiency of the gyrotron in the highest efficiency range to effectively improve the performances of the coaxial double electron beam electron gun and the application range of the gyrotron matched with the coaxial double electron beam electron gun; and moreover, breakdown cannot be generated between the inner and outer anodes and the cathode sleeve and between the control anode and the cathode sleeve to facilitate the miniaturization of the device.

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

In this patented technology, since the inner conductor (inner anode) is located in the cathode sleeve, and the cathode sleeve is located in the outer conductor (outer anode), in order to avoid high-voltage breakdown between the inner and outer conductors (outer anode) and the cathode, the inner and outer conductors ( anode) and the minimum distance between the cathode casing is limited

Therefore, the radius of the electron beam emission ring of the cathode sleeve and the inner diameter of the outer conductor (outer anode) in this type of electron gun are limited and cannot be set arbitrarily; especially the working potential difference between the inner and outer conductors (anode) and the cathode sleeve When it is large, neither a smaller emission ring radius nor a smaller inner diameter of the outer conductor (outer anode) can be used, making it difficult to miniaturize the device in the diameter direction; especially the patented technology cannot be used when the working potential is constant The size of the electron beam current, the rotation speed and the axial speed of the electron beam in the gyrotron are adjusted, which not only makes it difficult to adjust the output power and improve the performance, but also cannot adjust its working efficiency when it is matched with the gyrotron.
