Highly-charged-ion-induced electron emission from C60thin films

Abstract: The secondary electron yields as a result of highly charged ions impinging on clean Au(111) and thin films of C 60 on Au have been measured. This has been done for film thicknesses of one to five monolayers and several charge states of Ar and Xe ions. For all ions an increase of 35% in the secondary electron yield is observed when going from Au(111) to multiple C 60 layers. The increase remains constant for a wide range (7-26) of charge states. Possible scenarios are given to explain the increase in electron y… Show more

“…However, it is well supported by classical-over-barrier calculations [17]. Experimental studies of electron emission during HCI neutralization at surfaces are commonly restricted to metallic surfaces [37][38][39][40]. For the surface of insulators only rare data is available for low to moderate charge states or at moderate projectile velocities [41,42] (see also [43] and reference therein).…”

“…1). A voltage of À100 V on the suppressor shield inhibits stray electrons entering the collector cone and secondary electrons, which may be produced by energetic or multi-charged ions, 32 leaving it. To further reduce the chance of stray electrons arriving at the collector, a bias voltage of À30 V is applied to the collector cone itself.…”
