Limiting current from a metallic ideal edge attached to a dielectric edge
نویسندگان
چکیده
An analytic expression for the limiting current in the vicinity of metallic and dielectric edges is developed. It is shown that the basic V law remains valid and, for large dielectric coefficients (er.5), the average limiting current density is not explicitly dependent on the angle of the metallic edge. Moreover, the limiting current depends primarily on the typical curvature of the emitter and not only on the diode gap. In general, the field curvature is reduced by the space charge and, in many cases, the singularity associated with the edge under vacuum conditions is eliminated. The azimuthal curvature parameter is identical to that in a planar configuration (p54/3), whereas for the radial curvature parameter, an analytic expression is developed. © 1999 American Institute of Physics. @S0003-6951~99!01346-7#

We introduce a new type of metallo-dielectric photonic band gap structure (PBG), intentionally incorporating very strong capacitive interactions between the periodic metallic islands. The band gaps become huge, with the lower band edge frequency being pushed down by the capacitive interaction between metallic islands, while the upper band edge frequency continues to depend primarily on the latt...

Background: To reduce uncertainties of patient positioning, the Computerized Tomography (CT) images acquired at the treatment planning time can be compared with those images obtained during radiation dose delivery. This can be followed during dose delivery procedure as Image Guided radiotherapy (IGRT) to verify the prescribed radiation dose delivery to the target as well as to monitor ...
