Abstract

Power increase of high current relativistic electron beam is related to the necessary increase in the current density. Plasma-filled diode concept looks promising from that point view. Electron beam generation occurs in a plasma-filled diode in a double sheath with plasma as an anode boundary. It provides smaller accelerated gap, lower impedance and larger current density than it possible with a vacuum diode for a given voltage. It also provides possibility to exclude the anode foils, separating regions of the beam generation and transportation to target.
