Abstract
AbstractWe have developed a novel cylindrical mirror Auger electron analyzer with the well defined electric field of 0.1% and the residual magnetic field of less than 1 mG. The CMA has a coaxial electron gun and the entrance angles are 42.3° ± 6°. The theoretically calculated energy resolution of 0.24% was obtained and the transmission was estimated to be 5.6%. This CMA can be used to obtain an absolute Auger electron yield with errors in peak heights of 5%, with an uncertainty in the energy position of 0.1 eV (or 0.01%), and with ghost intensities due to scattering of 0.1–0.2% for energies greater than 10 eV. Samples of polycrystalline gold, silver, and copper have been examined.
