Key objectives of the development effort are modularity and scalablity, combined with low cost and ease of manufacture. For short-pulse modulators, this Marx topology provides a means to achieve fast risetimes and flattop control that are not available with hard switch or transformer-coupled topologies.","PeriodicalId":283300,"journal":{"name":"2013 IEEE 14th International Vacuum Electronics Conference (IVEC)","volume":"50 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128132641","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Modeling such complex multi-beam systems presents different computational challenges depending on the specific device and regime being modeled. Applications of interest require in some cases the model of both global and stochastic space charge, where the latter requires direct evaluation of Coulomb interactions. A new approach implemented in MICHELLE-eBEAM is designed to take advantage of the GPU hardware acceleration and novel algorithms to efficiently capture particle dynamics for complex beamlines. In this paper we report on our latest progress and show for a high current electron beam lithography application the achieved accuracy and performance of the new code.","PeriodicalId":283300,"journal":{"name":"2013 IEEE 14th International Vacuum Electronics Conference (IVEC)","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-05-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121071812","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
