Abstract
The scattering of 0.1–3keV electrons in a copper target has been simulated by a Monte Carlo direct method. A partial wave method of combining the Hartree approximation with the Hartree-Fock approximation for calculation of phase shift has been used for calculating elastic scattering cross-section in the keV-energy region. The Gryzniski, Streitwolf and Quinn excitation functions are adopted to describe the shell electron excitation, conduction electron excitation and plasma excitation respectively. A method which can save memory capacity and simplify the calculation procedure is suggested to calculate average binding energy. The calculated results on the backscattering coefficient and secondary electron yield are compared with the experimental results of Shimizu.
