    摘要: An improved quadrupole mass spectrometer is described. The improvement lies in the substitution of the conventional hot filament electron source with a cold cathode field emitter array which in turn allows operating a small QMS at much high internal pressures then are currently achievable. By eliminating of the hot filament such problems as thermally “cracking” delicate analyte molecules, outgassing a “hot” filament, high power requirements, filament contamination by outgas species, and spurious em fields are avoid all together. In addition, the ability of produce FEAs using well-known and well developed photolithographic techniques, permits building a QMS having multiple redundancies of the ionization source at very low additional cost.

    摘要: An electron gun includes a field emission cold cathode (1) having a first electric potential, a primary gate electrode (2) having a first opening around the top of the cathode (1) and having a second electric potential which is higher than the first electric potential for causing an electron emission from the top of the cathode (1), and a second gate electrode (3) having a second opening around the top of the cathode (1) and having a third electric potential which is higher than the first electric potential and lower than the second electric potential, wherein a first voltage defined as a difference between the first and the second electric potentials varies in proportion to a second voltage defined as a difference between the first and the third electric potentials so as to provide a current-voltage characteristic having an apparent gamma-property. The apparent gamma-property is such that the luminous output of a fluorescent substance (7) of an anode (8) is directly proportional to a signal voltage.

    摘要: An electron source emitter is made from transition metal carbide materials, including hafnium carbide (HfC), zirconium carbide (ZrC), titanium carbide (TiC), vanadium carbide (VC), niobium carbide (NbC), and tantalum carbide (TaC), which are of high refractory nature. Preferential evaporating and subsequent development of different crystallographic planes of the transition metal carbide emitter having initially at its apex a small radius (50 nm-300 nm) develop over time an on-axis, sharp end-form or tip that is uniformly accentuated circumferentially to an extreme angular form and persists over time. An emitter manufactured to the (110) crystallographic plane and operating at high electron beam current and high temperature for about 20 hours to 40 hours results in the (110) plane, while initially not a high emission crystallographic orientation, developing into a very high field emission orientation because of the geometrical change. This geometrical change allows for a very high electric field and hence high on-axis electron emission.

    摘要: A mechanically stable and oriented scanning probe tip comprising a carbon nanotube having a base with gradually decreasing diameter, with a sharp tip at the probe tip. Such a tip or an array of tips is produced by depositing a catalyst metal film on a substrate (10 & 12 in FIG. 1(a)), depositing a carbon dot (14 in FIG. 1(b)) on the catalyst metal film, etching away the catalyst metal film (FIG. 1(c)) not masked by the carbon dot, removing the carbon dot from the catalyst metal film to expose the catalyst metal film (FIG. 1(d)), and growing a carbon nanotube probe tip on the catalyst film (16 in FIG. 1(e)). The carbon probe tips can be straight, angled, or sharply bent and have various technical applications.

    摘要: A diamond electron source in which a single sharpened tip is formed at one end of a pillar-shaped diamond monocrystal of a size for which resist application is difficult in a microfabrication process, as an electron emission point used in an electron microscope or other electron beam device, and a method for manufacturing the diamond electron source. One end of a pillar-shaped diamond monocrystal 10 is ground to form a smooth flat surface 11, and a ceramic layer 12 is formed on the smooth flat surface 11. A thin-film layer 14 having a prescribed shape is deposited on the ceramic layer 12 using a focused ion beam device, after which the ceramic layer 12 is patterned by etching using the thin-film layer 14 as a mask. A single sharpened tip is formed at one end of the pillar-shaped diamond monocrystal 10 by dry etching using the resultant ceramic mask.
