Abstract
The computer code PE2D has been used to optimise the design of a compact, 500 kV, low-inductance vacuum-diode interface assembly for SPRITE, a sophisticated electron beam pumped exciplex laser system under construction at Rutherford Appleton Laboratory (RAL). Electrostatic modelling of various dielectric interfaces has been achieved in cylindrical symmetry under conditions not amenable to more traditional methods of electrostatic-field plotting.
