In this paper we present the COLLGUN simulator, a 3D tool for the design of TWT's electron gun. The complete simulator consists of three main modules: a dedicated fully 3D Finite Element mesh generator, a 3D FE Vlasov solver, including space-charge effects, with an integrated electron trajectory tracer and a graphic post-processing module for result restitution. Several examples of 3D simulation of electron guns have been analyzed to test the simulator.","PeriodicalId":283559,"journal":{"name":"Fifth IEEE International Vacuum Electronics Conference (IEEE Cat.

In this co-development Thales Electron Devices GmbH is responsible to develop and build electron guns for two types of light sources: (a) for a compact and brilliant VUV point source in a volume smaller than 1 mm/sup 3/ (b) for a very small VUV laser with an active volume smaller than 1 mm/sup 2/ /spl times/ 40 mm. The second item requires an electron gun producing a 40 mm broad electron band beam. This is considered to be technologically more complex than the gun for the rotational symmetric electron beam required for the VUV point source and therefore is left for the second half of the program.

The TWTs have been tested against all sensitive parameters and could so far support all modulations schemes, yielding very low values for group delay and group delay stability. To meet the linearity requirements, the tube can be operated either in backoff mode or in combination with a lineariser. This presentation shows the actual performance data of TED's improved L-band tubes, and demonstrates through the obtained results that L-band TWTAs provide attractive solutions, suited for all navigation systems.","PeriodicalId":283559,"journal":{"name":"Fifth IEEE International Vacuum Electronics Conference (IEEE Cat.

The simulation with a 0.4-cm thick, 70-A current beam has given overall efficiency of 35.7% relative to 700 kW input beam power, with no self-consistent fields effects having been noticed at the nominal current density of 8.7 A/cm/sup 2/, about four times lower than the space-charge limit of 33.1 A/cm/sup 2/ for a 1.5-cm drift length and 10 keV beam.

At present, input is possible only through the input file, which is very simple and user friendly. A complete PPM circuit is generated using the coordinates of first pole piece, first magnet, gun adapter (if the structure is a-periodic) and the region of computation. Small mesh units of either square or rectangular shapes can be used with mesh refinement capability in one or more regions in any or both directions for better accuracy of the solution. Materials with different magnetic permeability can be modeled by defining a characteristic value for each mesh point of the geometry. The effective potential value at each point in the region of interest is calculated based on the vector potential model by using the 5-point finite difference method and the solution is achieved by over relaxation technique for faster convergence. This package has an interface with EGUN to model the electron gun and collector under the influence of magnetic field. Versatile color graphics are capable of plotting both axial magnetic field and flux lines along with the magnetic circuit.
