The complete design, fabrication, and performance evaluation of a compact, single cell, $X$-band ($\sim$9 GHz) electron injector based on a field emission cathode (FEC) are presented. A pulsed electron beam is generated by a 10's of kW…
Metal photocathodes are an important source of high-brightness electron beams, ubiquitous in the operation of both large-scale accelerators and table-top microscopes. When the surface of a metal is nano-engineered with patterns on the order…
The electron emission properties of a single-crystal nitrogen-doped diamond(001) photocathode inserted in a 10kV DC photoelectron gun are determined using a tunable (235-410nm) ultraviolet laser radiation source for photoemission from both…
In this paper, we present the results of experimental observation of strong-field photoemission from a diamond field-emitter array (DFEA) illuminated by a focused laser beam with 1035 nm wavelength. Having the advantage of high emission…
A case performance study of a planar field emission cathode (FEC) based on nitrogen-incorporated ultrananocrystalline diamond, (N)UNCD, was carried out in an RF 1.3 GHz electron gun. The FEC was a 100 nm (N)UNCD film grown on a 20 mm…
The operation of Ultrafast Electron Diffractometers (UEDs) and Free-Electron Lasers (FELs) relies on high-brightness electron beams produced by radio-frequency (RF) photocathode guns. The next generation of high-repetition rate UEDs and…
In this paper we study the effect of actual, locally resolved, field emission (FE) area on electron emission characteristics of uniform semimetallic nitrogen-incorporated ultrananocrystalline diamond ((N)UNCD) field emitters. To obtain the…
The spectral emission characteristics of a proof-of-concept hybrid metallized diamond(001) photocathode are presented. The quantum efficiency (QE) is shown to be determined by the photo-injection efficiency across the ohmic contact at the…
Field Emitting Arrays (FEAs) are a promising alternative to the conventional cathodes in different vacuum electronic devices such as traveling wave tubes, electron accelerators and etc. Electrical gating and modulation capabilities,…
We theoretically explore the optical properties of a circular array of quantum dots. This structure, that we call a circular emitter array (CEA), can exchange optical angular momentum via the emission and absorption of circularly polarised…
Two kinds of electroconvection (EC) patterns in an ether-bridged bent-core nematic liquid crystal material (BCN), which appear in different frequency ranges, are examined and compared in this paper. One is a longitudinal pattern with the…
High current bright sources are needed to power the next generation of compact rf and microwave systems. A major requirement is that such a source could be sustainably operated at high frequencies, well above 1 GHz, and high gradients, well…
In this work, a single crystal CVD diamond film with a novel three-dimensional (3D) interdigitated electrode geometry has been fabricated with the Reactive Ion Etching (RIE) technique in order to increase the charge collection efficiency…
For many emerging optoelectronic materials, heteroepitaxial growth techniques do not offer the same high material quality afforded by bulk, single-crystal growth. However, the need for optical, electrical, or mechanical isolation at the…
For injection of beams into circular machines with different horizontal and vertical emittance acceptance, the injection efficiency can be increased if these beams are flat, i.e. if they feature unequal transverse emittances. Generation of…
In this work, we quantify field emission properties of cathodes made from carbon nanotube (CNT) fibers. The cathodes were arranged in different configurations to determine the effect of cathode geometry on the emission properties. Various…
We report on the first successful operation of a field-emitter-array cathode in a conventional L-band radio-frequency electron source. The cathode consisted of an array of $\sim 10^6$ diamond diamond tips on pyramids. Maximum current on the…
In order to investigate and understand the influence of gun design, cathode preparation and operational parameters on the beam quality it is important to have reliable and accurate beam diagnostics available. The focus of this work was thus…
This paper presents theory and finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) calculations for a single and arrays of sub-wavelength cylindrical holes in metallic films presenting large transmission. These calculations are in excellent agreement with…
The next generation of Far-infrared and X-ray space observatories will require detector arrays with thousands of transition edge sensor (TES) pixel. It is extremely important to have a tool that is able to characterize all the pixels and…
