Electric-field-induced ion evaporation from dielectric liquid.
نویسنده
چکیده
A direct proof of ion field evaporation from dielectric liquids is presented. The flux of sodium ions ejected from the surface of an electrospray of formamide is measured using time-of-flight and retarding potential techniques. The electric field at the emitting surface is varied through the electrospraying parameters. We find that the evaporated ion current is a very steep function of the electric field.

Numerical Study of Electro-thermo-convection in a Differentially Heated Cavity Filled with a Dielectric Liquid Subjected to Partial Unipolar Injection
The Coulomb force applied by an electric field on any charge present in a dielectric liquid may cause fluid motion. At high applied electric fields in an insulating liquid, electric charge carriers are created at metallic/liquid interfaces, a process referred to as ion injection, and result from electrochemical reactions. In this article we deals with the problem of electro thermal convection i...
متن کاملModel of the meniscus of an ionic-liquid ion source.
A simple model of the transfer of charge and ion evaporation in the meniscus of an ionic-liquid ion source working in the purely ionic regime is proposed on the basis of order-of-magnitude estimates which show that, in this regime, (i) the flow in the meniscus is dominated by the viscosity of the liquid and is affected very little by the mass flux accompanying ion evaporation, and (ii) the effe...
متن کاملStudy of leaky dielectric droplet behavior under an electric field: effect of viscosity and electric conductivity ratios
In this research, hydrodynamic behavior of a leaky dielectric droplet under an electric field is simulated. The level set method is used for interface tracking and the ghost fluid method is used for modeling discontinuous quantities at interface. Using Taylor’s leaky dielectric model, electric field and electric force at the interface is calculated. Simulation results show the droplet deformati...

Ionic Liquid Ion Sources (ILIS) are devices capable of producing molecular ion beams through electrostatic stressing of room temperature molten salts, or ionic liquids. These ion beams can be applied in space propulsion, in focused ion beams for microfabrication and in reactive ion etching. To achieve ion evaporation from the ionic liquid, the liquid is supported on a micron-sized emitter tip. ...
متن کاملStructure of salts solution in polar dielectric liquids and electrically induced separation of solvated ions
Results of investigation testify that placing of volume distributed electric charge of ion in dielectric liquid is accompanied by formation of the supramolecular particles, which we called “clusters”, linear sizes of which is significantly more than first and second radiuses of solvation (~ 1 Angstrom) and reach size ~ 0.1 μm. At such sizes inertial properties of clusters and their natural freq...
