The Kimball Physics EGG-3103 Electron Gun, with its matching EGPS-3103 Power Supply is a medium energy, high current electron gun with applications in general vacuum physics, surface heating, excitation, ionization, fluorescence experiments, and spacecraft testing. It is a complete subsystem ready to attach and turn on.
The gun generally uses an Yttria (Y2O3) cathode to generate a high current, focusable electron beam. The gun has a Pierce style geometry with a shaped grid element and a shaped first anode element to control the beam. Both beam energy and beam current are independently adjustable over wide ranges. The energy is variable from 100 eV to 10 keV, and current from 200 μA to 10 mA. A high current option provides beam currents up to 50 mA.
