Time-of-flight energy spectrometer for positive ions
Abstract
A technique is described for the simultaneous measurement of the time-of-flight and energy of positive ions produced in the decay of excited molecules. The technique permits the separation and determination of the energy spectra of ion species with different mass to charge ratios. Data from the bombardment of CO by 1-MeV He+ are presented.
