We quantify the effects of the energy resolution of a magnetic bottle electron spectrometer in an attosecond streak camera on the accuracy of measuring the relative amplitudes of satellite pulses around the main attosecond pulse. Our numerical simulations show that the spectral resolution can be significantly improved by restricting the acceptance angle using a pinhole located near the source o...

Amorphous Co1-xPx alloy nanowire arrays with different sizes and 6.8 wt% x 9.9 wt% were fabricated in an anodic aluminum oxide film by electrodeposition. Transmission electron microscopy, selected area electron diffraction, X-ray fluorescence spectrometer, inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectrometer, X-ray diffraction spectrometer and vibrating sample magnetometer are employed to st...

A newly constructed time-of-flight electron spectrometer of the magnetic bottle type is characterized for electron detection in a broad range of kinetic energies. The instrument is designed to measure the energy spectra of electrons generated from liquids excited by strong laser fields and photons in the range of extreme ultra violet and soft X-rays. Argon inner shell electrons were recorded to...

By making use of advanced methods for the calculation of electron trajectories in the presence of space charge fields we have designed and built a novel electron energy-loss spectrometer for the purpose of measuring spin flip excitations at surfaces. The measurement of the spin asymmetry requires a deflection angle between the photocathode and the sample position which amounts to 90° in total. ...

On 26 September 2005, Cassini conducted its only close targeted flyby of Saturn's small, irregularly shaped moon Hyperion. Approximately 6 min before the closest approach, the electron spectrometer (ELS), part of the Cassini Plasma Spectrometer (CAPS) detected a field-aligned electron population originating from the direction of the moon's surface. Plasma wave activity detected by the Radio and...

I present a new approach to the measurement of a, the electron-neutrino correlation, in neutron beta decay. A precise measurement of a can lead to a precise determination of ratio of the axial vector and vector coupling constants, Ga/Gv . Coincidences between electrons and protons are detected in a field-expansion spectrometer. The field-expansion spectrometer is designed to make 1/TOF ≈ | p p|...

In this paper, the morphology of chemically etched silicon with various concentration  is reported. The surface of Silicon (100) has pyramidal structures which can be used for anti-reflection applications in solar cells. Pyramidal structures can capture incident sun light therefore can enhance the efficiency of silicon solar cells. The structure of silicon pyramid was studied using scanni...

The introduction of multiparameter high energy electron momentum spectroscopy (EMS) spectrometers, with high energy and momentum resolution and coincidence count rates, has made it possible to obtain detailed information on the electronic structure of condensed matter and surfaces. In particular it gives direct information on the spectral-momentum density of the material under study, which may ...
