    • Developing High-Brightness Electron Beam Sources for Producing Quantum Degenerate Electron Beams 
      Kohler, Jonathan (Vanderbilt University. Dept. of Physics and Astronomy, 2011-04)
      The Pauli Exclusion Principle places a fundamental limit on the brightness of an electron beam. Developing a cathode which can reach this limit is useful for achieving maximum operation in current applications of ...
    • Emittance and entropy of electron beams 
      Erickson, Collin (Vanderbilt University. Department of Physics and Astronomy, 2014-04)
      Creating high-brightness electron beams, which have many practical applications, is done with cathodes in regions with large electric field by field emission. The brightness is high when the current is high and the ...
    • Measurement of Energy Spectrum of Electrons Field-Emitted from Diamond Field-Emitter Arrays 
      Stewart, Christopher L. (Vanderbilt University. Dept. of Physics and Astronomy, 2009-04-20)
      A retarding mesh analyzer was used to measure the electron energy spectrum field emitted from a single tip of a Diamond Field Emitter Array. The emission was dominated by adsorbed gas atoms and molecules on the surface ...
