Abstract

To produce a compact and efficient particle accelerator, several different piezoelectric transformer configurations are evaluated for their applicability in this demanding application area. Using a derived 1-D model for three different electroding and mounting schemes, accelerator efficiency and gradient are optimized. It is shown that with some advancements in material yield strength and advanced bonding techniques, reaching 4 MeV/m with over 40% efficiency is possible.
