A novel design of the electrostatic storage ring using quadrupole deflector

Abstract A novel electrostatic storage ring (ESR) design was created using an electrostatic quadrupole deflector (EQD) and quadrupole doublet lens (QDL). EQD was used to turn the electron beam 90 degrees in order to create an innovative ESR design. The impact of EQD designs on ESR performance was investigated, and the results showed that the performance of ESR was directly affected by the EQD design. The calculations showed that increasing the EQD diameter by 20% led to an enhancement in the electron beam dimensions by 88% for ∆x and 44% for ∆y for the initial angle of the electron beam α = 0.2º. Also, the design achieved its goal of keeping kinetic energy constant, where for an initial kinetic energy of 1000 eV, the difference between the energy of the injected electron beam and the emerging electron beam from the ESR is approximately 1–5 eV, i.e., despite changing the diameter of the EQD, the dimensions of the electron beam improve and the kinetic energy remains constant.
