Measurements of the γ_i-coefficient, the ignition voltage and the normal cathode fall of the glow discharge on gas-covered cathode surfaces for the combinations Mo—Ne⁺, Ar⁺, Kr⁺, Xe⁺ and Fe—Ne⁺ are described. H₂, N₂ and O₂ are used for covering the cathodes with a monomolecular adsorption layer. Measurements are carried out with a dynamic method according to VARNEY in the range 30 ? X/p₀ ? 400 V cm^?1 Torr^?1.     

Production of Kr2+ in collisions of rare gas ions with Kr

Total and differential cross sections for the production of fast Kr²⁺ ions in collisions of He⁺, Ne⁺ and Ar⁺ with Kr were measured at primary energies below 500 eV. In the system Ar⁺+Kr most of these reactions occur in close collisions and are accompanied by a large momentum transfer. For Ne⁺+ Kr collisions the angular distribution in the centre of mass system is approximately isotropic over a wide angular range. The cross section values for the Kr²⁺ production amount to 1% of the total charge transfer cross section in the investigated energy range.     

The lowest electronic states of Ne2 +, Ar2 + and Kr2 +: comparison of theory and experiment

Non-relativistic configuration interaction (CI) ab initio calculations using large basis sets have been carried out to determine the potential curves of the first electronic states of Ne₂ ⁺, Ar₂ ⁺ and Kr₂ ⁺. The spin—orbit interaction was treated assuming that the spin—orbit coupling constant is independent of the internuclear separation (R). For Ar₂ ⁺, calculated dissociation energies and equilibrium separations are in good agreement with experimental results. The calculations for Ne₂ ⁺ suggest that the lowest vibrational level of the I(1/2u) ground state observed by threshold photoelectron spectroscopy by Hall et al. [1995, J. Phys. B: At. molec. opt. Phys., 28, 2435] and assigned to either ν = 0 or ν = 2 actually corresponds to ν = 4. The calculations also predict the I(1/2g) state of Ne₂ ⁺ and Ar₂ ⁺ to possess a double-well potential and that of Kr₂ ⁺ to be repulsive at short range and to only possess a single shallow well at large internuclear separation. The ab initio calculations provide an explanation for the observation made by Yoshii et al. [2002, J. chem. Phys., 117, 1517] that Kr₂ ⁺ and Xe₂ ⁺ dissociate after photoemission from the II(1/2u) state to the I(1/2g) state whereas Ar₂ ⁺ does not.     

Messungen des γi-Koeffizienten an reinen Mo- und Fe-Oberflächen in Edelgasen

Es werden Messungen des γ_i-Koeffizienten an reinen Katodenoberflächen für die Kombinationen Mo—Ne⁺, Ar⁺, Kr⁺, Xe⁺ und Fe—Ne⁺ mitgeteilt, die mit einer von Varney angegebenen dynamischen Methode im Bereich 30 ? X/p₀ ? 400 V Torr^?1 cm^?1 durchgeführt wurden. Es wird gezeigt, daß die mit dieser Methode im Gas gemessenen γ_i-Werte sich aus den Vakuumwerten von Hagstrum ableiten lassen, wenn

• 1 . die Rückstreuung der emittierten Elektronen und
• 1 . die Molekülionenbildung

berücksichtigt werden. Die Nachlieferung von Elektronen durch Photonen (δ/α) und Metastabile (ω/α) wird unter Verwendung von ω/α-Werten aus Zündspannungsmessungen abgeschätzt. Measurements of the γ_i-coefficient on pure cathode surfaces are described for the combinations Mo—Ne⁺, Ar⁺, Kr⁺, Xe⁺ und Fe—Ne⁺ with a dynamic method according to Varney. These measurements were carried out in the range of 30 ? X/p₀ ? 400 V Torr^?1 cm^?1. It is shown that the measured values correspond to these of Hagstrum obtained in vacuum, if

• 1 . backscattering of emitted electrons and
• 1 . formation of molecules

are taken into account. An estimation is made for electron emission coefficients of photens (δ/α) and metastables (?/α) by calculated ω/α-coefficients from measurements of ignition voltage.     

Die ZerstÄubung von Kupfer durch Edelgas-Ionen im Energiebereich von 100 keV bis 1 MeV als Funktion des Einfallswinkels

Using a 1.3MeV Van de Graaff-accelerator the sputtering ratioS of polycristalline copper bombarded by Ne⁺-, Ar⁺-, Kr⁺- and Xe⁺-ions was measured as a function of the angle of incidence in the range from 0? to 45?. The ion-energy was varied from 100 keV to 1 MeV. The sputtering ratio was found to increase with bombarding angle asS=S(0?)· (2- cos α)/cos α for Ne⁺-, Ar⁺- and Kr⁺-ions and asS=S(0?)/cos^3/2 α for Xe⁺-ions. The increase of the sputtering ratio was found to be independent of the ion-energy.     

Die Zerstäubung von Kupfer durch Ne+-, Ar+-, Kr+- und Xe+-Ionen im Energiebereich von 75keV bis 1MeV

Using a 1,3 MeV Van de Graaff-accelerator the sputtering ratioS of polycristalline copper bombarded by normally incident Ne⁺-, Ar⁺-, Kr⁺-, and Xe⁺-ions was measured in the energy range from 75 keV to 1 MeV. In the case of Kr⁺-ions a broad, plateau-like maximum of the sputtering-curveS=f(E) was found at about 100 keV, for Xe⁺-ions a more pronounced maximum at about 125 keV. The results are discussed applying the theories ofGoldman-Simon, Pease, andMartynenko.

On the nature of ion bombardment-induced phase transformations in films of transition metals

Abstract

Electron diffraction studies have been made of polycrystalline Ni films irradiated with well separated beams of ions of different nature, namely ions of inert (He⁺, Ne⁺, Ar⁺, Kr⁺, Xe⁺) and reactive (N⁺ and O⁺) gases. The Ni films were prepared under vacuum conditions (P? 3·10^?6Pa during evaporation) preventing an appreciable contamination of the films with impurities. The samples were irradiated at T? 300 K with ion beams of energies from 10 to 100 keV in the dose range between 5·10¹⁶ cm^?2 and the value leading to sample destruction.

Irradiation with noble gas ions revealed no phase transitions in the Ni films. A similar result was obtained in irradiation of Fe and Cr films with He⁺ ions. The bombardment of Ni films with reactive gas ions does cause changes in the lattice structure of the samples under study, depending on the nature of the bombarding ions. The N⁺ ion bombardment gives rise to the hcp phase with the lattice parameters typical of the Ni₃N compound, and the O⁺ ion bombardment results in the fcc phase with the NiO-type parameter.

The conclusion is drawn on the chemical origin of the phase transformations in the Ni films under ion bombardment. The necessity of revising the concept about the polymorphous nature of phase transformations induced in the films of transition metals by ion bombardment is substantiated.     

The origin of K2, Rb2 and Cs2 triplet 13Πg−X3Σ+u bands in discharge

The absorption and emission spectra of potassium, rubidium and caesium low-pressure discharges have been studied at the far blue wings of resonance D2-lines. The observed diffuse bands were attributed to the 1³Π_g?X³Σ⁺_u transition. Experiments revealed the recombination ²P + ²S nature of these bands, and the corresponding rate coefficients were obtained. Energies of the higher excited states as well as the X³Σ⁺_u -state well depths for K₂, Rb₂ and Cs₂ molecules were estimated.     

Atomic excitations in sputtering studied with the use of composite targets

Atomic excitation phenomena in sputtering have been studied with the following combinations of projectile and target. (i) Be, B, Mg, Al, and Si bombarded with 80 keV Ar⁺ at UHV as well as with the target chamber backfilled with oxygen. (ii) Mg bombarded with 80 keV O⁺, F⁺, Ne⁺, Na⁺ Cl⁺, and Ar⁺. (iii) MgO, MgF₂, MgCl₂, MgSO₄, and several alkali halides bombarded with 80 keV Ar⁺ at UHV. Results are discussed. It is concluded that the excited-state formation takes place as electron tunneling at a fairly large separation between the target surface and the particle being sputtered. It is suggested with composite targets containing a metal element that excitation takes place predominantly at locations of the target surface where the work function is low, due to a thin, metallic surface layer, and that production of ground-state, positive secondary ions mainly takes place at target surface regions with high work function. For semiconductors, the changes caused by presence of oxygen are related to the change of the bonds in the solid from being of covalent nature to being fractionally ionic.     

X-ray productions in symmetric heavy ion-atom collisions

X-ray photoelectron spectroscopic studies of PbO surfaces bombarded with He+, Ne+, Ar+, Xe+ and Kr+

The surface composition of PbO has been studied with X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy after bombardment with several inert gas ions of 400 eV. The results show reduction of PbO to metallic Pb with the degree of damage following the order He⁺ > Ne⁺ >Ar⁺. Both Kr⁺ and Xe⁺ did not reduce the oxide. The depth of damage varied from ≈9 Å for He⁺ to ≈1 Å for Ar⁺ bombardment. The results were compared to a collisional and a thermal model of the sputtering process.     

Electron impact total ionization cross sections of beryllium and boron isoelectronic ions

A simple user-friendly empirical formula is proposed to calculate the electron impact total single ionization cross sections of beryllium-like Be, B⁺, C²⁺, N³⁺, O⁴⁺, Ne⁶⁺, Fe²²⁺, Hg⁷⁶⁺, and U⁸⁸⁺ and boron-like B, C⁺, N²⁺, O³⁺, Ne⁵⁺, Fe²¹⁺, Kr³¹⁺, and Xe⁴⁹⁺ targets. A simplified and modified version of the Bell formula is used in the present model incorporating the ionic correction factor. The predicted ionization cross sections are compared with the available experimental and theoretical results. Excellent agreements are found for the incident energies ranging from threshold to 10⁶ eV considered herein. The presented results achieve a level of agreement that is better than the calculations from the existing theoretical methods and empirical models. Hence, this model may be an excellent choice, due to its simplicity, for the practitioners in the fields of applied sciences and technologies.

Electron impact ionization of helium isoelectronic systems

The electron impact single ionization cross sections, on the helium isoelectronic He, Li¹⁺, B³⁺, C⁴⁺, N⁵⁺, O⁶⁺, Ne⁸⁺, Na⁹⁺, Ar⁺¹⁶, Fe²⁴⁺, Mo⁴¹⁺, Ag⁴⁵⁺, and U⁹⁰⁺ targets, are calculated modifying the simplified Bell (SBELL) model [Eur. Phys. J. D 46, 281 (2008)]. The results of the present analysis are compared with the available experimental and theoretical data. The modified SBELL (MSBELL) model, incorporating the ionic correction factor in it, produces excellent agreement with the experimental data and theoretical calculations for all the two-electron systems, neutral or ions. This model may be a prudent choice in plasma modeling due to its simple inherent structure.
