The use of the computer code PE2D in the electrostatic modelling of an electron beam generator vacuum diode interface
Abstract
The computer code PE2D has been used to optimize the design of a compact, 500 kV, low inductance vacuum diode interface assembly for SPRITE, a sophisticated electron beam pumped exciplex laser system under construction at RAL. Electrostatic modelling of various dielectric interfaces has been achieved in cylindrical symmetry under conditions not amendable to more traditional methods of electrostatic field plotting.
