INTRODUCTION In the Вudker Institute of Nuclear Physics, SB RAS, Novosibirsk, according to the VEPP-5 preinjector project [1] a first version of its preinjector has been de- veloped and put into operation [2]. To generate electron bunches, an electron gun operating at a stable mode of 200 kV, 2A current amplitude is used [3]. As an electron emitter, the 12.5 mm in diameter ox- ide cathode-grid unit based on the GS-34B valve is used [3]. This gun does not provide a required current and also is not durable enough, so a new electron source with enhanced parameters listed below has been con- structed. a)a b ) B ( z )E ( z ) b Fig.1. Electron gun: General view (1 – cathode-grid unit with focusing electrode; 2 – electrodes; 3 – accelerating tube; 4 – ion pump; 5 – anode; 6 - magnetic lenses; 7 – gate; 8 – bed frame; 9 – vacuum channel; 10 – collector) (а); results of simulation (electric and magnetic field axial distributions, trajectories of electrons, at the right upper corner – current density distribution and phase portrait of the beam at the entrance to RF accelerator) (б) Electron energy .......................200 keV Bunch current amplitude .........10 A Pulse duration (at half-height) ..2...3 ns Pulse repetition rate ..................50 Hz Beam emittance less than ..........0.01 π cm rad The cathode life-time is more than 104 hours. In the paper the results of computer simulation, the electron gun design, and experimental data are present- ed. 2. OPTICAL SIMULATIONS The sketch of the electron gun and its electron-opti- cal system are presented. The electron gun based on the accelerating tube along with focusing electrodes is manufactured on the _________________________________________________________ PROBLEMS OF ATOMIC SIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY. 2004. № 1. Series: Nuclear Physics Investigations (42), p.128-130.128 flange as one spear unit (1). A dispenser spherical cath- ode unit produced in “Thorium”, Moscow [4], is used as an electron emitter. The cathode has the diameter 20 mm, spherical radius of 100.4 mm. The cathode allows 4-5 disassemblies of the gun and exposure on the air without its emission degradation. The control grid has spherical radius 100 mm, sell size 0.4·0.4 mm, width of crosspieces 0.06 mm, it is made of 100 µm molybdenum. The distance for the cold cathode-grid is 0.4 mm. The accelerating tube (3) consists of 6 welded alu- mino-oxide ceramic rings with outer and inner diame- ters 150 mm and 135 mm respectively. The electrodes are made of Kovar, while the spacers of copper. The ac- celerating electrodes (2), which along with the focusing ones and anode are forming the electron-optical system, are fixed into the tube electrode recesses. The beam transportation and its matching to the lin- ear accelerate input is performed by means of two mag- netic lenses (6). Nanosecond beam pick-ups (are not shown in Fig.1) allow recording a value and a shape of the current pulses with required time precision. Vacuum gate (7) installed between the gun and the linear acceler- ator permits one to fix on the preinjector the operational gun previously prepared and tested on the separated fa- cilities. The gun and the vacuum channel are on the frame. Gun pumping during its activating phase is car- rying through the vacuum channel (9) by additional pumps. Simulations of the electron-optical system as well as of the cathode-grid unit have been made by the comput- er code UltraSAM [5] in electrostatic approximation. One of the alternatives of the beam propagation from the grid surface to the collector is shown in Fig.1,b. The current density on the grid is uniform. The initial elec- tron energy is 0.17 keV. The aim was to minimize the beam emittance at the gun entrance. To simulate the separate cell of the control grid an axially symmetric model of a square sell with equal area was chosen. The full amount of such cells is about 2000. The cathode- grid gap in simulation was put 0.3 mm, taking into ac- count a thermal drift of 0.1 mm. In Fig.2 one can see the results of computing. At the grid the electrical potential area is 7 kV/cm and the grid voltage is 0.17 kV. Fig.2. Results of simulation of the model of square grid cell. Between neighbor equipotential lines is 20 kV, tra- jectories of electrons, current density distribution and phase portrait of the beam at 0.8 mm from the grid (the right upper corner) In Fig.3 the calculated dependences between cathode current, collector current and grid one and grid voltage are presented. One could also see the maximum relative spread of transverse velocities of electrons at the grid plane versus Ug. For these simulations a model of the cathode–grid unit described above was employed. 0 4 8 12 16 20 24 28 -30 0 30 60 90 120 150 180 210 240 Ugrid, V I, A Vr /V z* 10 0 calculated cathode current calculated grid current calculated Vr/Vz*100 measured cathode current measured grid current calculated beam current Fig.3. Results of simulations and measured VA plot of the new 200 kV gun for VEPP5 preinjector 3. EXPERIMENTAL RESULTS The cathode supplies pulse current is up to 8 A at the heating power of 39 W, at 45 W it goes up to 16 A, at 54 W it is 26 A at the partially temperature limited mode. In the test facility at the cathode voltage Uк=50 kV, the bias grid voltage was 1.02·10-3 of cathode voltage. In this mode we had in the collector 1.2 of 1.75 A from the cathode, that was 0.685 of path current flow at grid optical transparency 0.68, that corresponds to 9.6 A at Uk=200 kV. The measured cathode current and grid current for different grid voltages are presented in Fig.3. Measure- ments were performed at 50 kV on the cathode and were related to Uk=200 kV according to “3/2” law. The measured cathode-grid capacitance on flange leads-in is 23 pF. The grid bias voltage at 200 kV of the anode one comprises 11…12 V and depends on gun heating power. The thermal drift of the grid depends on the operat- ing heating power. The gap between the cathode surface and the greed is 0.33…0.35 mm while 0.4…0.42 mm in cold condition. The grid emission at 50 W of heating power is ~5 µA at the pressure 4·10-6 Pa. When we use one pump of 10 l/sec capacity, the vacuum is 5·10-5 Pa at 50 W of heating power. CONCLUSION The results of experimental testing of the new gun allow us to conclude that its parameters achieved are perfectly match to these required for the VEPP-5 prein- jector project. When controlling systems are manufac- tured and tested in the operating mode, the electron source will be fixed on the preinjector.
