The effect of crystalline structure on molecular effect in ion-induced electron emission
Abstract
The results of experimental and theoretical study of the molecular effect in ion-induced electron emission from single crystal and polycrystalline materials are presented. It has been found that the electron emission yield γ_2 under N_2^+ bombardment of a single crystal shows a dependence on ion incidence angle θ, which is analogous to the anisotropy of the yield γ_1 under N^+ impact. The ratio R_2(θ)=γ_2/2_(γ1)<1 exhibits, for single crystals, a drastic angular dependence, which was successfully described on the basis of electron sweeping-out mechanism by conjunction of both the sharp channeling at θ<ψ_L and the shadowing-caused bell-like pattern at θ>ψ_L, the Lindhard angle.
