Abstract:

An electrostatic analyzer is described that can be applied to obtaining the differential energy spectrum of very low energy ions or electrons in the energy range 1 to 100 eV. This instrument is designed to operate at magnetic field strengths up to 0.5 gauss and is adaptable to construction as an array of sensing elements. Author
