Calculation of Secondary Electron Emission Yield From MgO Surface

Secondary electron emission yield values for rare-gas particles (He, Ne, Ar, Kr, and Xe ions of atoms and molecules, metastable atoms, and excimers) of MgO deposited under optimum conditions for the highest values were calculated assuming the Auger transitions between the valence band, and the (oxygen ion vacancy + two electrons) and + (oxygen ion vacancy + one electron) centers in the MgO surf...

Influence of the Electric Field on Secondary Electron Emission Yield

We present results of the investigation of secondary electron emission from spherical amorphous carbon grains of 3 to 6 micrometers in diameter affected by a high surface field. In our experiment, we have applied a technique based on levitation of a single charged grain in the quadrupole trap. This grain was charged by an electron beam with an energy tunable up to 10 keV. During this process, t...

Secondary electron yield measurements from thin surface coatings for NLC electron cloud reduction

In the beam pipe of the positron damping ring of the Next Linear Collider, electrons will be created by beam interaction with the surrounding vacuum chamber wall and give rise to an electron cloud. Several solutions are possible for avoiding the electron cloud, without changing the bunch structure or the diameter of the vacuum chamber. Some of the currently available solutions for preventing th...

Sharp Reduction of the Secondary Electron Emission Yield from Grooved Surfaces∗

The effect of an artificially-enhanced rough surface on the secondary electron emission yield (SEY) was investigated both theoretically and experimentally. Analytical studies on triangular and rectangular grooved surfaces show the connection between the characteristic parameters of a given geometry to the SEY reduction. The effect of a strong magnetic field is also discussed. SEY of grooved sam...
