Description

A new electron gun using a YU-156 cathode-grid assembly was developed for the L-band linac at The Institute of Scientific and Industrial Research, Osaka University. The configuration of the electrodes were optimized by using a simulation code and the bench test of the gun was performed. The maximum peak current of an electron beam from the gun was 30.1 A for a pulse width of 5 ns in FWHM at an anode voltage of 100 kV. The characteristics of the electron beams generated from the linac equipped with the gun were much improved. The maximum charge of electrons in a single-bunch beam was 73 nC, which is higher than that obtained in the previous accelerator system. (author)
