Аннотация:This monograph is dedicated to the basic methods of the design of
electrostatic energy analyzers that are widely used in electron spectroscopy.
Of the variety of requirements that are commonly imposed on the geometrical structure and output characteristics of energy analyzers, two are of principal importance. These are the order of angular focusing and energy
dispersion, which define the sensitivity and resolution power of a particular
energy analyzer, respectively. We consider three different and mutually
complementing approaches aimed at the evaluation of the focusing and dispersion properties of energy analyzers. The first of these approaches—the
analytical approach—is applicable in the case when the electrostatic fields
and electron trajectories can be represented in the form of explicit analytical
expressions. Not infrequently, the fields and trajectories may be obtained as
integrals or asymptotically convergent series; this comprises the second,
approximate-analytical approach elucidated in the monograph. In more
general and sophisticated cases, the might of the modern numerical methods
of computational mathematics should be used, which represents the third
approach considered here.
This book can be useful for students of charged particle optics; scientists
and engineers involved in the development of the new, advanced energy
analyzers; and users of electron spectroscopy devices who want to keep
abreast of current trends in this area.
