Description Thermionic emission microscope (THEM) is an important analytical research tool for studying the electron emission uniformity of a thermionic cathode. The criticality of its design and development stems from the inhomogeneous emission nature of impregnated cathode surface. In this paper, a design approach of lens and deflection plates is described for a multibeam cathode (MBC). The design of lens is carried out using 2D TRAK and the design of deflection system using OmniTRAK 3D to ensure required deflection of beam without losing laminarity and beam interception with deflection plates. The simulation studies show that THEM could be used as an effective tool to study MBC.
