ATTAINABLE ELECTRON ENERGY IN DIODE WITH PLASMA CATHODE AT THE GIVEN VOLTAGE
Keyword(s):
It is considered an acceleration of electrons in a one-dimensional interval, part of which is filled by ions initially compensated by electrons. For the stages of forward motion and backward motion of a part of electrons, the problem is reduced to a numerical solution of ordinary differential equations for some set of time-dependent quantities. The ratio of attainable energy to the energy corresponding to the voltage is maximum and near to 1.87475 for relatively small values of the width of the space without ions when applying a certain voltage, which, as the width is reduced, has to be reduced as a width cube.
