摘要：

novel electron gun with lanthanum hexaboride (LaB6) thermionic cathodes with relatively low work functions is being developed by coating the metal surface with another material. When operated under thermionic emission mode, this tool provides both high brightness and high beam current simultaneously, has a long lifetime, and offers good stability during operation. Herein, we describe the basic design concept for a novel LaB6 cathode involving infiltration of a carbide solution. Moreover, we experimentally measured the thermionic-emission-mode work function of the rhenium surface modified with a LaB6 single-crystal powder and carbide solution.
