Abstract
The effect of a space charge of electrons multiply backscattered from the a node on the current in a planar diode was theoretically studied. Spectral d istributions of the energy of electrons moving along the electric field wer e calculated by the Monte Carlo code. It was found that the maximum decreas e in the current of diodes with high-Z anodes does not exceed 20%. (C) 2001 MAIK "Nauka / Interperiodica".
