Multichannel charged-particle analyzer.

摘要

A charged-particle energy analyzer includes a hollow axi-symmetrical body with an annular opening therein receptive of input electrons from a cylindrical mirror analyzer, the electrons having a distribution of electron energies and a range of electron trajectories. The trajectories each have a radially inward directional component and an axial directional component in a forward direction parallel to the axis. Annular deflectors with negative potentials are disposed coaxially in the body so as to reverse the axial directional components of the electron trajectories. A ring-shaped channel detector detects the electrons relative to radial distance and thereby to energy. <IMAGE>
