Some program highlights…
• Thermionic cathodes
-Oxide
-Scandate*
• Field emitter arrays
• Explosive emission cathodes & guns
• RF breakdown experiments & simulations
*70 A/cm2 demonstrated with 5 μs pulses at a 500 Hz repetition rate at 1000 ˚C—200 A/cm2 appears achievable for HPM applications.

Thermionics• Plasma deposition of cathodes
– Performed at Stanford facility in collaboration w/ BVERI colleagues
– Vast improvements in system since original use for oxide cathode deposition
• Focus: Long life cathodes for conventional microwave tubes and high current density “clean” cathodes for HPM sources
• Goal: Cathodes with work functions in the target range of 1.4-1.6 eV

RF Breakdown Experiments
• TM020 cavity with removable noses
• Examine materials and processing
• Copper surface before (left) and after (right) Gas Cluster Ion Beam (GCIB) Processing (collaboration with Epion)
