Abstract
In synchrotron radiation and electron storage rings, photon-stimulated gas desorption is a major contributor to gas load, leading to vacuum degradation and compromising the stability and quality of the beamline. Therefore, it is imperative to investigate the underlying mechanisms of photon-stimulated gas desorption to enhance the reliability of the experiments. In this paper, a theoretical model for analyzing the process of photon-stimulated desorption is presented, and the equations are solved numerically by considering the evacuation, bulk diffusion, thermal outgassing, adsorption, and desorption of surface gas molecules. The modified model can predict the yield of H2 gas desorption induced by photon stimulation when synchrotron radiation is directed vertically onto various sample surfaces, utilizing the coupled multi-physics solution. The calculated results are consistent with the experimental measurements obtained from the Shanghai Synchrotron Radiation Facility. The results show that the photodesorption yield is related to the amount of surface-adsorbed molecules, which explains the observed decrease in the photodesorption yield with increasing accumulated photon dose. Furthermore, the study provides a theoretical approach to predicting the pressure evolution of photon-stimulated desorption.
