Ultra fast pulser for low energy electron beams
Patent published on the 2026-05-21 in US under Ref US20260142118 by EUCLID TECHLABS LLC [US] (Jing Chunguang [us], Montgomery Eric John [us], Zhao Yubin [us], Wyderski Bartosz [us], Miller Sean [us], Rush Wade [us], Kostin Roman [us], Kanareykin Alexei [us])
Abstract: An electron beam pulser suitable for SEM systems directs ≤30 keV electrons through a stripline kicker. RF waves or voltage pulses deflect the beam to periodically impinge on an aperture, thereby creating electron pulses from 100 fs to 100 ns in width. In RF embodiments, the RF frequency is tuned to provide 180-degree phase slippage between the RF and the electron beam, thereby generating pulse repetition rates up to 20 GHz without divergence. The RF can be reverse propagated through the kicker[...]
Our summary: This device generates ultra-fast electron pulses for SEM systems using a stripline kicker. It achieves pulse widths from 100 fs to 100 ns with repetition rates up to 20 GHz. The system can be synchronized for advanced pump-probe experiments.
