Abstract:It has been experimentally demonstrated [1] that the currentvoltage characteristic of a short-pulse electron beam (when the electron beam pulse duration is less than or comparable with the electron time-of-flight between the cathode and anode in the planar geometry of the electron diode) is considerable higher then the conventional Child-Langmuir limit. It can be projected, also, that in the coaxial geometry of electron beam formation, where the Fedosov-Belomytsev current [2] is an analog of the Child-Langmuir… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
