Instrumentation for Studies of Electron Emission and Charging from Insulators
Making measurements of electron emission properties of insulators is difficult since insulators can charge either negatively or positively under charge particle bombardment. In addition, high incident energies or high fluences can result in modification of a material’s conductivity, bulk and surface charge profile, structural makeup through bond breaking and defect creation, and emission proper...
متن کاملImaging electron emission from diamond and III–V nitride surfaces with photo-electron emission microscopy
Ž . Wide bandgap semiconductors such as diamond and the III–V nitrides GaN, AlN, and AlGaN alloys exhibit small or even negative electron affinities. Results have shown that different surface treatments will modify the electron affinity of Ž . diamond to cause a positive or negative electron affinity NEA . This study describes the characterization of these surfaces Ž . with photo-electron emiss...
متن کاملPhoto Electron Emission Microscopy of Polarity-patterned Materials Photo Electron Emission Microscopy of Polarity-patterned Materials
This study presents variable photon energy photo electron emission microscopy (PEEM) of polarity-patterned epitaxial GaN films, and ferroelectric LiNbO3 (LNO) single crystals and PbZrTiO3 (PZT) thin films. The photo electrons were excited with spontaneous emission from the tunable UV free electron laser (FEL) at Duke University. We report PEEM observation of polarity contrast and measurement of...
متن کاملThermionic and Photo-Excited Electron Emission for Energy-Conversion Processes
*Correspondence: Timothy S. Fisher , Birck Nanotechnology Center, 1205 West State Street, West Lafayette, IN 47907, USA e-mail: [email protected] This article describes advances in thermionic and photo-emission materials and applications dating back to the work on thermionic emission by Guthrie (1873) and the photoelectric effect by Hertz (1893). Thermionic emission has been employed for elec...
متن کاملNonthermal Electron Bernstein Emission in Nstx-like Discharges
In overdense plasma for which the plasma frequency exceeds the cyclotron frequency, X-mode, nearperpendicular cyclotron emission does not propagate to the outboard plasma edge. However, under these conditions it remains possible for electron Bernstein waves (EBWs) to transmit emitted radiation from central plasma to the plasma exterior via a mode conversion to electromagnetic waves near the pla...
