| Research Abstract |
Electron beams produced by a triode gun with a field-emitter array (FEA) cathode were examined and applied to generate visible Smith-Purcell radiation.
1. Charactereistics of the electron beam
The beam was diagnosed by means of image processor which analyzed fluorescent patterens formed at 1 m from the FEA.The rms normalized emittance of beamlet emitted from each tip was in the range of 10^<-8> to 10^<-9> π m-rad. The spot size of the beam was approximately equal to the size of the emitting area of FEAs.
2. Beam acceleration up to 120 keV
A high voltage was applied to the cathode by a small Van de Graaff generator equipped with a feedback control system. The cahode shank was passed through four ceramic isolators rated at 30 kV to achieve beam energies up to 120 keV.
3. Generation of Smith-Purcell radiation
Smith-Purcell light was emitted by 15-60 keV electron beams grazing a replica diffraction grating. Automatic scanning measurement of spectra covered 350-750 nm wavelengths and detected the peaks for radiation orders of -2 to -5.
4. Photoelectric field emission
The electron emission increased significantly when illuminating the FEA with a 100 mW YAG laser (2ω_o) beam which was focused to the order of 10^7 W/m^2.
