WELCOME
On behalf of the IVEC 2022 Committee and the IEEE Electron Devices Society (EDS) Technical
Committee on Vacuum Electronics, I would like to welcome you to the 23rd IEEE International
Vacuum Electronics Conference.
The IVEC meeting for over 20 years now continues to be an international scientific conference focused
on vacuum electronics research and innovation. The meeting has been held at locations across the world,
and for the last two years, in cyberspace. This year we are going to exist in both worlds, as we will both
come together face-to-face for the in-person event in Monterey and in the virtual world, as we have
created a hybrid meeting for the first time.
This conference has been arranged to facilitate the presentation and discussion of information useful to
manufacturers, systems application engineers, academics, and students. Traditionally, IVEC attracts a
diverse group of attendees. The technical sessions, social events, and interactive virtual meetings will
provide unique opportunities to renew old or establish new contacts and friendships with colleagues,
customers and end users, and students.
As in the past, we will open this year’s conference with mini-course lectures on Monday, April 25. The
mini-course lectures are: “Basics of TWT Amplifiers,” presented by Dr. Frédéric André; “Additive
Manufacturing of Vacuum Electronics,” presented by Dr. Diana Gamzina; “Introduction to Thermionic
Converters,” presented by Drs. Peter Scherpelz and Roelof Groenewald; and “Electron Emission
Physics at Ultrafast and Ultra-Small Scale,” presented by Prof. Peng Zhang. Continuing education credit
from IEEE can be obtained by attendance at these courses.
Our core conference is a three-day event, Tuesday, April 26, through Thursday, April 28. Tuesday
morning, the first of two outstanding plenary sessions will be held. Our Tuesday plenary speakers will
include Dr. Carter Armstrong, an RF vacuum electronics veteran, who will present “Vacuum Electronics
Continued next page
Industry Retrospective and Futurecast.” Dr. Vadim Sajaev, Associate Division Director for the
Accelerator Systems Division at the Advanced Photon Source at Argonne National Laboratory, will
describe “Building the World’s Brightest Hard X-ray Synchrotron Light Source Upgrade of the
Advanced Photon Source at Argonne National Laboratory.” After the Tuesday plenary session, we will
present the 2022 John R. Pierce Award for Excellence in Vacuum Electronics.
On Wednesday, the second plenary session will be held with Mr. Philipp Borchard of Dymenso LLC,
delivering a timely talk, particularly applicable to the active research in high frequency devices, entitled
“Precision Mechanical Interfaces for Boosting Millimeter-Wave Devices Performance.” Finally, Fr.
Edward Foley, Capuchin, of the Catholic Theological Union, looks into the innovative, inspiring and
imaginative aspects of the scientific quest in his talk, “Apologies to Galileo, a Theologian’s Homage to
Science.” After Wednesday’s plenary session, we will announce the winner of the Best Student Paper
Award. Lastly, we will present the 2022 Vacuum Electronics Young Scientist Award.
Our conference includes three days of outstanding oral and poster technical presentations, with sessions
dedicated to TWTs, power supplies, klystrons, microfabrication, and much more. All the talks for each
day will be captured, posted on the virtual platform, and made available for a period of two weeks for
on-demand viewing after the conclusion of the conference.
Please be sure to visit our exhibitors, who will be on hand all three days of the event. And on
Wednesday evening, April 27, join us as we gather at the hotel for a banquet with live jazz music. We
will also take this opportunity to honor the contributions of Lou Falce and George Caryotakis to the field
of vacuum electronics and this conference in particular.
As usual, the conference web site (ieeeivec.org) is your best source of information about IVEC 2022 and
will continue to serve as a clearinghouse for news and other IVEC-related information after the
conference, along with the EDS Vacuum Electronics Web site (VacuumElectronics.org).
I would like to take this opportunity to thank the IVEC Committee members for their help and support,
especially Max Mankin, the Technical Program Chair, for doing a lot of heavy lifting in the conference
organization. Max, together with all the staff at Palisades Convention Management, built the meeting
you are about to experience. I would also like to thank Monica Blank, the EDS Technical Committee
Chair for helping to facilitate numerous issues over the past year. Jagadishwar Sirigiri laid the
groundwork in 2020 for the virtual component for the meeting and continued to provide support and
guidance beyond his tenure. Thank you also to Neville Luhmann and Daniel Busbaher for organizing
the memorials to be presented at the banquet. I would be remiss for not highlighting and thanking our
corporate financial contributors for their support. Please see our showcase for our generous corporate
sponsors and exhibitors. Finally, I thank you, our presenters and exhibitors, for your participation either
in-person or in the virtual world for providing the content of the conference.
Let’s do it!

Instructors and Courses:
Basics of TWT Amplifiers
Presented by Dr. Frederic Andre, Thales AVS
Dr. Frédéric André is presently acting as product line architect at Thales AVS. He develops traveling
wave tubes for space applications in Vélizy-Villacoublay (France) and Ulm (Germany). His interests
extend to advanced concepts including Hamiltonian time domain model of TWTs, carbon nanotube
cathodes, and sub-terahertz TWTs.
Additive Manufacturing for Vacuum Electronics
Presented by Dr. Diana Gamzina, Elve Speed
The construction of vacuum electronic devices is an artisan process; it requires extremes of high-
precision machining and assembly and the tolerances and feature sizes become more exacting as the
operating frequency increases. Designs are currently limited by conventional manufacturing processes,
requiring components to be manufactured individually, then stacked into assemblies, and brazed.
Additive manufacturing offers the ability to achieve vacuum integrity, enclosed complex cavity shapes,
and high-power handling capability all at once. Additive manufacturing can be implemented for
construction of fully integrated vacuum electronic devices, starting the next generation for low-cost and
high-capability RF vacuum devices.
Dr. Diana Gamzina serves as CEO of Elve, Inc., developing millimeter-wave power amplifiers. Prior
to that Diana was staff scientist at the SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory for five years and a
development engineer at the UC Davis millimeter-wave research group for over eight years, leading
research and development programs in millimeter-wave vacuum electronics. Her expertise includes
micro to nano scale as well as additive fabrication techniques, multiscale multifunctional materials
design and analysis, and development of compact high-frequency and high-power RF sources.
Introduction to Thermionic Converters
Presented by Dr. Peter Scherpelz & Dr. Roelof Groenewald, Modern Electron, Inc.
Thermionic energy converters (TECs) convert heat to electricity through vacuum electron emission from
a hot cathode onto a colder anode. Building an efficient converter has proven to be extremely
challenging, however. An ultra-low work function anode is important for operation, and it must coexist
in the device with a high-flux electron emitter. By default, electron emission will cause a large space
charge barrier to form, which must be mitigated in a manner that consumes little energy; solutions
include plasmas or very small gaps. This short course will give an overview of TECs, the theory behind
them, and the primary solutions to low work function collectors, high-flux emitters, and space charge
mitigation. The course will also discuss approaches to modeling TEC performance, including the use of
modern high-performance computing.
Peter Scherpelz is a senior computational physicist at Modern Electron, where he has experience in
particle-in-cell modeling of thermionic converters, thermionic converter theory, and design and analysis
of novel thermionic converter concepts and experiments. He holds a Ph.D. in physics from The
University of Chicago, where he was supported by the Hertz Fellowship, and focused on theoretical
descriptions of high-temperature superconductors and ultracold atomic superfluids. He completed a
postdoctoral fellowship at The University of Chicago Pritzker School of Molecular Engineering, where
he performed electronic structure calculations to support the development of novel materials and
quantum computing architectures.
Roelof Groenewald is a senior computational physicist at Modern Electron, with experience in
thermionic converter theory, particle-in-cell simulations of thermionic converters, models of plasmas
used in thermionic converters, and experiments on thermionic converters. He has also performed
electromagnetic modeling of radiative heat transfer for thermionic converter design. He holds an M.S. in
computer science and a Ph.D. in physics from the University of Southern California, where he worked
on computational condensed matter physics, including ab-initio studies and method development for
computing many-body interactions.
Electron Emission Physics at Ultrafast and Ultra-Small Scale
Presented by Prof. Peng Zhang, Michigan State University
Ultrafast laser-induced electron emission from nanostructures is fundamentally important to the
development of coherent electron sources, compact radiation sources and accelerators, ultrafast electron
microscopy, and novel nano-vacuum devices. This talk summarizes recent development on the modeling
of electron emission physics at ultrafast and ultra-small scale. Our short-pulse emission model is valid
for arbitrary pulse length from sub-cycle to CW excitation, and for arbitrary pulse repetition rate. The
single formulation is valid from photon-driven electron emission to field-driven emission as optical
intensity increases. Also presented are electron emission enhancement from coated surfaces and strong
current rectification in an optical field-driven nanogap.
Peng Zhang is currently associate professor (assistant professor from 2016 to 2021) with the
Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, Michigan State University. He received his Ph.D.
in nuclear engineering and radiological sciences from the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, in 2012.
His research interests are in theoretical and computational physics in nanoelectronics, plasmas, and
accelerator technology. He was a recipient of the IEEE Nuclear and Plasma Sciences Society Early
Achievement Award, the AFOSR Young Investigator Program Award, and the ONR Young Investigator
Program Award. He is currently an Editorial Board Member of Scientific Reports and Plasma Research
Express.

the field’s continued vitality including comments on the roles I see for its primary stakeholders:
the users, government sponsors/national labs, the university community, suppliers and, of
course, industry both the legacy companies and new entrants. I’ll cover some technology
advances I experienced or observed both breakthroughs and those remaining to be realized.
I’ll conclude with my take on some possible fruitful future markets and R&D investment areas.
PL2: Building the World’s Brightest Hard X-ray Synchrotron Light Source (8:55)
Upgrade of the Advanced Photon Source at Argonne National Laboratory
Dr. Vadim Sajaev
Accelerator Systems Division at the Advanced Photon Source at Argonne National
Laboratory
The Advanced Photon Source has been in operation since 1995 and consists of a storage ring
where the synchrotron light is produced and an injector complex that generates electron
bunches and accelerates them to the energy of 7 GeV. A full replacement of the storage ring has
been designed and is being presently manufactured; it will result in up to a 500-fold increase in
X-ray brightness. The injector complex is also being refurbished to ensure smooth operation
over the next 20 years. The storage ring replacement work is planned to start in April 2023, and
the first new light will be generated a year later.

Devices Performance
Mr. Philipp Borchard
Dymenso LLC
Recent advances in technology have demonstrated the capability of sub-micron level machining of
individual parts, but the assembly of multiple parts into complete devices, while maintaining the
tolerances required, continues to present a significant challenge in the manufacturing process. The use of
precision alignment techniques, such as kinematic couplings, quasi-kinematic couplings, and elastic
averaging has the potential to transform the mm-wave device fabrication process by providing increased
device performance while reducing fabrication costs. Technology application examples will be
presented, ranging from X-band to W-band and beyond.
PL4: Apologies to Galileo, a Theologian’s Homage to Science (8:55)
Fr. Edward Foley, Capuchin
Catholic Theological Union
The relationship between Christianity and the sciences has not always been a mutual admiration society.
Clergy are often suspicious of scientists who can seem to supplant faith with empiricism, and scientists
can easily dismiss faith leaders as uncritical thinkers who look more to the past than the future. This
reflection will attempt to bridge that gap in an appreciative mode by demonstrating how the innovative,
inspiring and imaginative aspects of the scientific quest can be a boon, not only to Christian preachers
and teachers, but to all of humanity

Multipactor discharges are capable of damaging and disrupting RF vacuum electronic devices. Developing new
techniques for suppressing and preventing multipactor discharges is essential to ensure reliable, long-term operations.
We explore two methods to prevent multipactor in a coaxial transmission line by altering the surface morphology. We
evaluate the multipactor suppression properties of textured 3D printed versus porous conductor surfaces.
