Pulsed laser deposition (PLD) has been proposed several years ago as a suitable technique to deposit a pure Mg film over a radio frequency (rf ) gun Cu backflange in order to obtain a high efficiency photocathode surface for the generation of high brightness electron beams. In this paper we report preliminary experimental results on the emission properties of a PLD grown Mg film within the high...

Using a two-dimensional model, we have considered the effects of spatially changing fields and potentials, stochastic electron emission, and ballistic electron motion on the anode current and on the width of the electron beam in field emission displays. We have solved the electrostatic problem using the boundary element method. Our electron emission model evaluates the current density at the ca...

In this paper the results of a two-dimensional diode emission system based on blade-like field cathode in polar coordinate modeling is presented.

2014 Spatially resolved spectroscopic diagnostics such as plasma-induced emission, laser-induced fluorescence and laser optogalvanic spectroscopy are used to characterize the cathode sheath and the negative glow of an abnormal glow dc discharge in nitrogen. These diagnostics provide local information on the excitation and ionization functions, on the concentrations of ions and on the rotational...

Tetrapod-like ZnO (T-ZnO) nanostructures were synthesized by a simple vapor phase oxidation method without any catalysts or additives. We optimized the performances of T-ZnO nanostructures by adjusting the partial pressure of Zn vapour in the total pressure of the quartz chamber and obtained T-ZnO nanostructure materials of high purity, uniform morphology and size and high aspect ratio with a l...

in this paper, using a one-dimensional simulation model, the reforming process of sour gas, i.e. ch4, co2, and h2s, to the various charged particles and syngas in a dielectric barrier discharge (dbd) reactor is studied. an electric field is applied across the reactor radius, and thus a non-thermal plasma discharge is formed within the reactor. based on the space-time coupled finite element meth...

Li-rich layer-structured cathode thin films are prepared by pulsed laser deposition. X-ray diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and electrochemical testing in half battery cells are used to characterize crystal structure, surface morphology, chemical valence states and electrochemical performance of these thin films, resp...

This paper describes the present status of aging studies in various photosensitive detectors. New experimental data are presented on aging of trimethylamine (TMA) and ethylferrocene (EF) photosensitive vapors as well as on CsI and SbCs photocathodes. A new explanation of the aging process for CsI photocathodes based on solid –state physics theory is given. Finally, based on our studies, a gener...
