分别从基体和铝酸盐两方面优化了钡钨阴极. 在基体方面, 首先采用窄粒度钨粉结合放电等离子体烧结获得了孔径分布窄的基体; 再利用射频等离子体球化技术制备了球形钨粉, 采用球形钨粉制备了多孔基体, 获得了孔通道光滑、内孔连通性好、孔径分布更加窄的基体. 与窄粒度钨粉基体相比, 球形钨粉制备的阴极, 空间电荷限制区的斜率由1.25增加至1.37, 发射均匀性得到提高, 拐点电流密度由6.6 A·cm–2增至6.96 A·cm–2. 在此基础上, 采用液相法改善了铝酸盐物相组成, 发现空间电荷限制区的斜率增加至1.44, 拐点电流密度增加至21.2 A·cm–2. 通过理论计算对钡钨阴极发射的物理本质进行了研究, 发现钡钨阴极发射规律遵循偶极子理论.
The Ba-W cathode consists of the porous W matrix and the aluminate. During cathode operation, the Ba atoms are generated in the pores through the thermal reaction between the W and aluminate, and then diffuse along the pore channels to the W surface, lowering the work function. Therefore, the Ba yield and the Ba diffusion are significantly influenced by the micro pore structure of the matrix and the phase composition of the aluminate. Firstly, the matrix is fabricated with the narrow particle size distribution powder by the spark plasma sintering (SPS) technique, which shows the narrow pore size distribution (FWHM = 0.43 μm). Then the spherical powder with good fluidity and high tap density is prepared using the RF induction thermal plasma. The matrix prepared with spherical powder exhibits narrower pore size distribution (FWHM = 0.4 μm), smooth pore channels and good inter-pore connectivity. The two matrixes prepared with narrow particle powder and spherical powder are named N-matrix and S-matrix, respectively. The aluminates are prepared using the solid phase method and the liquid phase method, separately. The particles of solid phase aluminate precursor present all shapes and all sizes, while the particles of the liquid phase aluminate precursor are uniform in size and identical in shape. The phase of solid phase aluminate and the phase of liquid phase aluminate are analyzed by XRD, the results show that the former consists of the effective Ba3CaAl2O7 phase and other impurity phases, while the latter is composed of two effective phases of Ba3CaAl2O7 and Ba5CaAl4O12. The N+S and S+S cathodes are obtained by using the solid phase aluminate to impregnate the N-matrix and the S-matrix, and the U-j characteristics of the two cathodes are investigated. The double logarithmic curves of U and j show that the slope of 1.37 in the space charges limited (SCL) region for the S + S cathode is higher than that of 1.25 for the N+S cathode, so the S+S cathode exhibits better emission uniformity. The current density at the deviation point (jDEV) of the N+S cathode and that of the S+S cathode are 6.6 A·cm–2 and 6.96 A·cm–2, respectively. So the improvement on the matrix obviously raises the emission uniformity of cathode, but the current density is increased less. Based on the excellent matrix of the S+S cathode, the S+L cathode is obtained by improving the aluminate of the S+S cathode with liquid phase aluminate. The U-j characteristics show the slope of the S+L cathode reaches to 1.44, and the jDEV is 21.2 A·cm–2. So the improvement on the aluminate not only increases the uniformity, but also raises the current density. The present study shows that the U-j curve calculated from the classical thermionic emission (TE) theory accords well with that of the S + L cathode at 1000 ℃, which indicates that the Ba-W cathode follows the classical TE theory rather than other emission theories, and the Ba-O dipole layer just changes the work function of the cathode. -
