Abstract:
An assembly, including: a nozzle including a first chamber with a first orifice arranged to receive a stream of gas; a second chamber with a second orifice to emit the stream; a throat connecting the nozzle chambers; and a collector including: top and bottom walls with first and second openings; a third chamber bounded by the top and bottom walls and including a third opening connected to the second orifice to receive the stream; and a fourth opening. The first chamber tapers from the first orifice to the throat. The second chamber expands in size from the throat to the second orifice. The third chamber expands in size from the third opening to the fourth opening. The collector is arranged to: entrain, in the stream, debris entering the third chamber through first or second opening; and emit the stream, with the entrained debris, from the fourth opening.
Abstract:
A high-brightness electron beam source is disclosed. The electron beam source may include a broadband illumination source configured to generate broadband illumination. A tunable spectral filter may be configured to filter the broadband illumination to provide filtered illumination having an excitation spectrum. The electron beam source may further include a photocathode configured to emit one or more electron beams in response to the filtered illumination, wherein emission from the photocathode is adjustable based on the excitation spectrum of the filtered illumination from the tunable spectral filter.
