Abstract

The method of calculating the energy distribution of electrons selected electrostatically, presented in Part I, has been used to calculate the distribution profiles for principal electrostatic spectrometers: toroidal, cylindrical 127° and spherical 180° spectrometers, parallel plate and cylindrical mirrors. The calculations have been performed as a function of the most important geometrical parameters of the spectrometers: the slit width and the angular aperture. They have been made in a generalized form by expressing these geometrical parameters as a function of the main dimension of each apparatus: main radius in the case of toroidal-type spectrometers, distance between the slits in the case of mirrors. In this way results presented may be extended to spectrometers of any size. Similarly as calculations have been performed for a nominal energy of the electron beam of 1 eV, the energy scale may be considered as arbitrary and it suffices to multiply it by the nominal energy of interest. For each type of spectrometer, equations used in calculations are given. For various slit widths and angular apertures of spectrometers, numerous energy distribution profiles are presented with the usual characteristics of energy distribution, that is half-intensity width (FWHM or [Formula: see text], base width (FWB or ΔEB), and arbitrary transmitted current (It).
