Field ionization from carbon nanofibers
… and real-time gas sensors. We developed a field ionizer array based on gated CNTs. Arrays of CNTs are used because of their small tip radii and high aspect ratio which yields high electric fields at low voltages. One possible configuration for the device is to bias the CNTs at the highest …

Nanowire sharpening : application to field ionization
Nanowires show potential for a wide range of fields, from developing next generation solar cells, to detecting viruses, to field ionizing gasses. Their uses in such disparate fields are due to the extreme flexibility in which nanowires can be manufactured and customized to order. The heart of a …

Strong Optical Field Ionization of Solids
… band in the presence of an intense laser field is explored theoretically in semiconductors and dielectrics. Experiments on intense laser driven dielectrics have revealed population transfer to the conduction band that differs from that seen in semiconductors. Our research explores two …

Carbon nanotube-based field ionization vacuum
… of isolated vertical carbon nanotubes (CNT) to field ionize gas particles. The ionized gas molecules are accelerated to and implanted into a negatively biased getter removing the gas molecules from the volume being pumped. CNTs are ideal for field ionization because of their nano-sized diameter, …

ELECTRIC FIELD IONIZATION OF SODIUM RYDBERG ATOMS
… the atomic core that a relatively small electric field may cause the electron to be stripped from the atom. The field strength at which this ionization happens is strongly dependent on the state of the Rydberg atom. Pulsed electric field ionization serves, therefore, not only as a means by which a …

Strong Field Ionization Of Radicals And Reaction Intermediates
… The calculated Isats correlate closely with the ionization potential which will help identify the different isomers. This study was then extended to several precursors relevant to combustion. The flash pyrolysis spectra are also presented. The calculated Isats for the heptane and isomers products …

Fundamental Studies And Applications Of Strong Field Ionization
<p>In an intense laser field, atoms and molecules experience tunneling ionization directly to the continuum. We used this method to study several aspects and applications of strong field ionization (SFI) in atoms and molecules. One study used SFI to probe the photofragments produced by …

Double-gated isolated vertically aligned carbon nanofiber field emission and field ionization arrays
Electron impact ionization (ElI) is used extensively in mass spectrometry for gas-phase analytes. Due to the significant amount of fragmentation generated by ElI, the spectrum is usually very noisy. In addition, the thermionic emission electron source used in ElI has a slow response time and …

A study of optical properties and current emission processes of gas phase field ionization sources
Field emission ion sources are extremely important for producing high-resolution ion beams essential for several fields of research and especially for semiconductor manufacturing. Although most sources used are based on liquid metals they cannot produce beams of H, He or other noble gases, so that …
