| 内容記述 | The need for a thin foil to serve both as an extreme ultraviolet (EUV) radiation attenuator and as a secondary electron generator for time-of-flight (TOF) instruments and energetic neutral atom (ENA) imagers has led us to test the scattering and transmission characteristics of a layered foil of nominal aerial thicknesses of 5 micrograms (raised dot) per square centimeter Si, 4 micrograms (raised dot) per square centimeter Lexan (C16H14O3), and 1 microgram (raised dot) per square centimeter C. We report the scattering/transmission results of subjecting this foil to H(+), He(+), and O(+) beams of energies less than or equal to 120 keV. The scattering of these particles, defined by the half-angular-width at half-maximum (HWHM), decreases with increasing energy and found to be 10 degrees for 10 keV H(+), 22 keV for He(+), and 100 keV for O(+). The 50% transmission threshold for these particles was found to be 3.9 keV for H(+), 8.6 keV for He(+), and 49.5 keV for O(+). Computer simulations of H(+)-foil interactions using SRIM96 agree well with the H(+) data, while yielding less scattering and higher transmission than indicated by the O(+) data. |
