Investigation of the Decelerating Field of an Electron Multiplier under Negative Ion Impact
The effect of the decelerating field of an electron multiplier towards negative ions was investigated under standard mass spectrometric conditions. Diminishing of this decelerating field by changing of the potential of the electron multiplier increased the overall sensitivity to negative ions by a factor of 100.
The secondary electron emission coefficient for the negative halogen ions relative to I− were measured on CuBe at the kinetic energies 1.0 and 1.5 keV.
