Students gain hands on experience of the use of an electron gun in pulsing mode.
Trajectory simulations of an ion source . This involved using a computer program to predict the pathways of ions which are electrostatically extracted from an ion source and focussed by a lens system. Photo-dissocative ionization of isomeric molecules . When an electron is removed from a molecule, in this case by a photon, there is a strong probability the molecule will break up or dissociate. Treatment of diamond surfaces with atom beams.
