Classical momentum gap for electron transport in vacuum and consequences for space charge in thermionic converters with a grid electrode

Quantum mechanics tells us that the bound states of a potential well are quantized—a phenomenon that is easily understandable based on wave properties and resonance. Here, the authors demonstrate a classical mechanism for the formation of a momentum gap in the phase space of electrons traveling as p...
