Project detail

  • Three types of deflectors are shown that can be defined in EOD
  • Project shows the outputs for saddle deflector, toroidal deflector and radial saddle deflector
  • For saddle deflector the field depends on what multipole component is computed
  • Finally the output potential can be shown as scalar potential (zero on axis) and “reduced” potential whose value on axis gives the axial multipole function

Axial field function

The computation of the 1st,3rd, 5th and 7th harmonic component of the deflector with 54 degrees half angle – normalized (by dividing with field maximum).
1st,3rd, 5th and 7th harmonic component of the deflector


The equipotentials of scalar and reduced potential




  • Scalar magnetic potential
