Formation of electron beam fields with 3D printed filters

Abstract

In this research the electron beam traverse profiles beam before and after the application of the developed filter element was calculated and experimentally obtained. The article presents the calculated parameters of the unit form and geometrical dimension, forming the determined electron beam profile, and the physical configuration of the filter produced by 3D print method. The electron beam field distributions before and after filtration obtained with the help of GAFCHROMIC EBT2 radiographic films are illustrated. The calculation method of the filter actual density determination is presented. In the paper the comparison results of the electron beam experimental and calculated profiles are shown.
