ELECTRON BEAM TECHNOLOGY - SOME RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

摘要

Electron beam technology has been in focus since long due to wide variety of applications in research and industry. Oneof the important modes of c-beam production is through thermionic emission. Improvements and advancement inenhancing the capabilities of electron beam sources compatible with the task to be accomplished at a reduced cost aretherefore necessary. We give an update of the recently developed and reported e-guns which are easy to fabricate,assemble and more efficient. Besides being cost effective, these guns are user friendly.
