The application discloses a strip-shaped multi-
beam electron gun, and relates to the technical field of electronic devices, which comprises a
cathode array
assembly, a multi-beam focusing
electrode assembly and a multi-beam
anode assembly arranged in sequence along an
electron transmission direction; the
cathode array assembly is composed of a plurality of array-distributed emission cathodes for emitting
electron beams; an acceleration
electric field is formed between the
cathode array assembly and the multi-beam
anode assembly; the multi-beam focusing
electrode assembly is arranged on the emission side of the cathode array assembly; the grooves and the baffles of the multi-beam focusing
electrode assembly are used for compressing and controlling the shape, size and beam
waist position of the multi-
electron beams, so that the effect of focusing multi-electron beams by a single focusing electrode is achieved; the plurality of
anode channels, the plurality of focusing holes and the plurality of emission cathodes are coaxially arranged in one-to-one correspondence; the electrons emitted by the emission cathodes enter the size-gradually-changing anode channels after being accelerated by the
electric field and compressed and shaped by the focusing electrode, so that the multi-beam strip-shaped electron beam output with large current and high quality is realized, and the guarantee of the
electron source for the high-
power output of the terahertz source is provided.
