Abstract

The shortest pulse width of ECR proton source is about sub-millisecond. A chopper or a kicker is important to produce 100 ns pulsed proton beams for high gradient accelerating structure. Physical design of an electrostatic kicker is described in this paper. The configuration of the kicker is matched with an ECR proton source which is being investigated. Electrostatic field is calculated with ANSYS. The capacitance of the kicker is extracted with CMATRIX command macro. Relations between beam's rising time and kicker pulse's rising time are discussed. The desire for pulsed power supply is also analyzed.
