Multipacting is the resonance generation of electrons produced by electrons accelerated into a solid surface by oscillating electromagnetic fields.  In some situations, this resonant generation can grow exponentially, absorbing power and significantly modifying the applied fields.  This can lead to hard limitations on the power transmitted in rf devices.  In this webinar, we show how VORPAL can help engineers and researchers understand and mitigate multipacting in real rf systems.  We will show how to import a complex geometry (for instance, from CAD) into VORPAL and use VORPAL to find the multipacting resonances of that geometry. 

PRESENTER:

Dr. Chet Nieter received his PhD from the University of Colorado in 1999.  He has been a Research Scientist with Tech-X Corporation since 2003, where he leads the effort in multipacting simulation for industrial applications.

MODERATOR:

Dexter Johnson
Analyst at Cientifica, a business intelligence company for emerging technologies
Author and Editor of several market reports on nanotechnology
Contributing editor for IEEE Spectrum’s Tech Talk
Program Director for numerous international conferences on nanotechnology, fiber optic
