Abstract :
Two-dimensional particle-in-cell simulations were carried out to study the sub-nanosecond electron-beam extraction from a diode gap filled with helium. The simulation code "MAGIC" was used, where gas ionization and secondary electrons are considered. The simulation results have given the behavior of the diode and the characteristics of the output electron beam.
