Abstract :
A magnetically insulated diode with a cryogenically refrigerated anode is proposed for the first time and a prototype of such a diode is constructed. H2O ice is produced on an anode which is cooled with liquid nitrogen. A small machine fed with a marx generator and a blumlein line is used to extract ion beams. Proton beams of about 50 A and 70 keV are obtained with good reproducibility. Diode electrical characteristics and extracted beam performances are also examined. Such a diode promises a variety of applications in the near future, if refined and tested thoroughly.
