Tunnel junction sensors for HCI-surface measurements at low kinetic energies

Reduced resistance drift in tunnel junctions using confined tunnel barriers

“…As a note, the devices presented here are representative samples from a very large number of devices made using the same processes spanning over a decade. 23,30,31 …”

Kinetic-energy transfer in highly-charged-ion collisions with carbon

“…[18]). Finally, there is preliminary evidence of increased damage to dielectric thin-film targets for decreased HCI * russell.lake@aalto.fi velocities in tunnel junction sensors [19]. Many previous studies have focused on intense electronic excitations due to charge-dependent potential-energy deposition and subsequent defect formation associated with HCI neutralization [13,[20][21][22][23][24].…”
