Abstract
AbstractA Monte Carlo simulation of the electron emission induced in NaCl by 60 to 250 eV photons is carried out. The number as well as the initial energy and spatial distribution of conduction electrons, obtained in a previous paper, are used as the input. Electron–phonon scattering events are treated semiclassically. Optical as well as acoustical phonons are taken into account, so that with the increase of electron energy the scattering probability decreases for optical and increases for acoustical phonons. The parameters of the model are adjusted to fit the experimental quantum yield and energy spectra of emitted electrons. It appears that for high‐energy (>2 to 3 eV) electrons the electron–phonon scattering is mainly due to acoustical phonons.
