Intense Electron and Ion Beam Generation

  • Chapter

Abstract

The development of the high-voltage pulsed power technology described in Chapter 1 has provided the capability for generating intense particle beams with power levels up to 1013 W for time durations of the order of 100 nsec. In order to take advantage of this capability it is necessary to have a good understanding of the important intense beam generation processes. The material in this chapter is devoted to a basic description of high-power diode phenomenology.
