Patterned negative electron affinity photocathodes for maskless electron beam lithography
This work focuses on two issues crucial to achieving high throughput with a negative electron affinity semiconductor photocathode source. Monte Carlo simulations indicate that for a 50 kV system, as much as 8 mA of current may be delivered to the wafer to achieve a raw throughput of 20 8 in. wafers per hour with 0.1 mm minimum feature size ~assuming a resist sensitivity of 10 mC/cm!. In order t...
متن کاملHigh-coherence picosecond electron bunches from cold atoms.
Ultrafast electron diffraction enables the study of molecular structural dynamics with atomic resolution at subpicosecond timescales, with applications in solid-state physics and rational drug design. Progress with ultrafast electron diffraction has been constrained by the limited transverse coherence of high-current electron sources. Photoionization of laser-cooled atoms can produce electrons ...
متن کاملA Model for Emission Yield from Planar Photocathodes Based on Photon-Enhanced Thermionic Emission or Negative-Electron-Affinity Photoemission
A general model is presented for electron emission yield from planar photocathodes that accounts for arbitrary cathode thickness and finite recombination velocities at both front and back surfaces. This treatment is applicable to negative electron affinity emitters as well as positive electron affinity cathodes, which have been predicted to be useful for energy conversion. The emission model is...
متن کاملPicosecond electron transfer from photosynthetic reaction center protein to GaAs.
An extremely fast electron transfer through an electronically coupled junction between covalently bound oriented photosynthetic reaction center protein photosystem I (PS I) and n-GaAs was measured by time-resolved photoluminescence. It was found that the n-GaAs band edge luminescence intensity increased by a factor of 2, and the fast exponential decay constant was increased by a factor of 2.6 f...
متن کاملMapping transient electric fields with picosecond electron bunches.
Transient electric fields, which are an important but hardly explored parameter of laser plasmas, can now be diagnosed experimentally with combined ultrafast temporal resolution and field sensitivity, using femtosecond to picosecond electron or proton pulses as probes. However, poor spatial resolution poses great challenges to simultaneously recording both the global and local field features. H...
