Abstract:
A method of manufacturing carburized Lu2O3 doped Mo cathodes for thermionic emission for magnetrons is described. The Lu2O3 doped Mo powder is prepared by sol-gel method. The powder is reduced thoroughly in hydrogen atmosphere. Afterwards, the powder is die-pressed into pellets, followed by sintering in hydrogen and carburization in activated carbon powder to obtain the carburized Lu2O3 doped Mo cathode.
Abstract:
Increasing the volume or weight of zirconia which is a diffusion and supply source, to extend the life of a field-emission type electron source causes a problem that the diffusion and supply source itself or a tungsten needle is easily subjected to damage. As another problem, although it is considered to form the diffusion and supply source using a thin film to avoid the above-described problem, it is difficult to stably obtain practical life exceeding 8,000 hours. It has been found that practical life exceeding 8,000 hours is stably obtained by providing a field-emission type electron source that has no chips or cracks in a diffusion and supply source and that can extend life with a little bit of an increase in the amount of the diffusion and supply source.

Means for achieving the purpose of the present invention includes an field emission type cathode composed of a single fibrous carbon substance and a conductive substrate supporting the same; an extraction apparatus for causing field emission of electrons; and an accelerator for accelerating electrons, wherein the aforementioned field emission type electron gun is further contains means for heating the aforementioned field emission cathode, and means for applying the voltage of the polarity that does not allow the aforementioned field emission type cathode to field-emit electrons.Thereby, the amorphous carbon is removed from the tip end of the fibrous carbon substance of the field emission type electron gun, without the tip end thereof being damaged.
Abstract:
A dielectric-film-type electron emitter includes an emitter section, a first electrode, and a second electrode. The emitter section is formed of a thin layer of a polycrystalline dielectric material. The dielectric material constituting the emitter section is formed of a material having high mechanical quality factor (Qm). Specifically, the dielectric material has a Qm higher than that of a so-called low-Qm material (a material having a Qm of 100 or less). The Qm of the dielectric material is preferably 300 or more, more preferably 500 or more.

The first power supply circuit is configured for electrically connecting the electron emitter and the anode with a power supply to generate an electric field between the electron emitter and the anode. The second power supply circuit is configured for electrically connecting the electron emitter with a power supply to supply a heating current for heating the electron emitter whereby electrons emit therefrom. Methods for generating an emission current with a relatively higher stability also are provided.

Abstract:
A field emission electron source includes a substrate, a first conductive electrode terminated to provide electrons, an emitting composite layer for emitting electrons, and a second electrode insulated from the emitter layer and terminated to extract electrons through vacuum space. The emitting composite layer lies between and parallel to the said first and the second electrodes, and comprises nano-structures embedded in a solid matrix. One end of the nano-structures is truncated and exposed at the surface of the emitter layer so that both the length and the apex of the nano-structure are regulated and the exposed nano-tips are kept substantially the same distance from the gate electrode. The embedding material is chosen to form triple junctions with the exposed tip to further enhance the field.
