Description

Different-speed double-electron-beam electron gun
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of vacuum electron, and particularly relates to a different-speed dual-electron-beam electron gun.
Background
Compared with a solid-state device, the vacuum device with high power, high stability and long service life has great advantages and development potential in the millimeter wave terahertz wave band. However, as vacuum electronic devices are developed to higher frequencies, the size of the structure is reduced, and the difficulty of processing and assembling is greatly increased. In order to develop the development of the vacuum device in the terahertz field, the design of a novel slow wave structure (such as a staggered double-gate slow wave structure, a double-row metal comb-tooth type slow wave structure and a folded waveguide type slow wave structure) and the exploration of a new wave injection interaction mechanism become important research points of the terahertz vacuum device in recent years.
The patent 'a two electron beam terahertz foldable line-return wave amplifier' provides a novel feedback type beam injection interaction mechanism based on forward wave-return wave. The double-electron-beam terahertz folding type line-return wave amplifier utilizes forward waves and return waves working at the same frequency point to interact with electron beams with different speeds respectively, and effectively realizes the output of forward waves and return waves working at the same frequency point, so that a local oscillator signal source and a coherent signal source are expected to be provided for terahertz coherent detection, the frequency difference of the local oscillator signal and the coherent signal is effectively eliminated, and the sensitivity of the coherent detection is improved.
The double-electron-beam terahertz folding type line-return wave amplifier needs two electron beams with different speeds to perform wave injection interaction with forward waves and reverse waves respectively. Electron guns producing electron beams of different velocities are the basis for the operation of the device and constitute a prerequisite for the construction of the feedback loop. However, existing electron guns are typically designed to emit a single electron beam or multiple electron beams having the same velocity, and no design has been found with electron guns that emit electron beams having different velocities.

Further, the electron microscope further comprises a first focusing electrode, and the first focusing electrode focuses the first electron beam.
Further, the cathode-anode hybrid structure further includes a second focusing electrode that focuses the second electron beam.
Further, the first cathode potential is-V1, the cathode anode mixed structure potential is-V2, the second anode potential is 0, and V1> V2> 0.
The invention has the beneficial effects that: the electron gun of the invention comprises two electron beams and a twice acceleration design, wherein the twice acceleration design is respectively carried out on the first electron beam and the twice acceleration design is carried out on the second electron beam, so that the emission of the two electron beams with different speeds is realized, and the electron gun has the following advantages:
(1) the different-speed electron beam electron gun can effectively reduce the size of the electron gun and meet the problem that the terahertz vacuum device is small in geometric size;
(2) the electron gun with different-speed electron beams shortens the distance between the two electron beams, and meets the requirement of a forward wave-return wave terahertz radiation source on the electron beams;
(3) compared with the traditional electron gun, the different-speed electron beam electron gun can emit two electron beams simultaneously, improve the electron beam current and reduce the current density of the electron beams;
(4) the electron gun of different speed electron beam can emit two electron beams with different working voltages (namely different speed electron beam);
