Desorption Induced by Electronic Transitions DIET II

Part of the book series: Springer Series in Surface Sciences ((SSSUR,volume 4))

Abstract

Photon-induced field desorption of hydrogen ions from a tungsten emitter has been observed using laser light (4.5 eV). Whereas the laser light leads to thermal desorption, the synchrotron radiation seems to show a threshold ≥ 30 eV and is therefore concluded to be a quantum process.
