Abstract :
Properties of high υ/γ diodes using thin anode foils have been studied both experimentally and theoretically. It has been demonstrated that these diodes are very useful in accelerating the pinch formation, in production of intense ion beams from the pinch area and in enhanced energy deposition in the focal area of the electron beam.
