A monoenergetic electron source for mass spectrometers and its application to the electron impact study of nitric oxide.

The presence of a retarding potential in a space charge limited diode is used to obtain the effect of an essentially monoenergetic electron beam by the R. P. D. method. The performance of an ion source, using this electron gun, is treated theoretically and tested experimentally with argon. Further t...
