A high-resolution retardation energy analyzer is being developed to examine the energy spread of electron beams from diamond field-emitter arrays. Analyzer design was guided by previous work at UMER*, and simulations performed in SIMION. The anaylzer incorporates a cylindrical focusing electrode which, when properly tuned, gives millivolt resolution for multi-kilovolt beams. The analyzer is integrated into a low-energy cathode teststand, which allows arbitrary adjustment of the anode-cathode spacing and planarity during operation.
