Abstract

Applied program package ELIM\DYNAMICS\ is designed for simulation, optimization and computer-aided design of dynamic image tubes with electrostatic focusing and deflection. The package allows highly precise computation of basic electrical and electron-optical characteristics including spatial/temporal line spread functions, spatial and temporal resolution along the photocathode working area in static and streak modes, spatial and temporal scale distortion, as well as assembling tolerances associated with image errors due to weak disturbances of axial symmetry. One of the main advantages of the new version presented is that `through' computation of electron beam from photocathode to screen is available with regard to dynamic aberrations caused by scattering fields located nearby the edges of deflecting plates. Some examples of image tube computations made with ELIM\DYNAMICS\package are given.
