Effect of the distribution density of emitters and anodic processes on the duration of operation of a diode with a multiple-point explosively emitting cathode
Abstract
It is shown experimentally that, for a beam energy density on the anode of greater than 1 J/sq cm, the duration of operation of a diode with a multiple-point explosively emitting cathode depends on the thermophysical characteristics of the anode and its transparence. The operation duration when highly transparent anodes are used is shown to depend significantly on the location of the emitters in relation to the focusing electrode.
