Invariant embedding approach to secondary electron emission from metals
[article]
2021
arXiv
pre-print
Based on an invariant embedding principle for the backscattering function we calculate the electron emission yield for metal surfaces at very low electron impact energies. Solving the embedding equation within a quasi-isotropic approximation and using the effective mass model for the solid, experimental data are fairly well reproduced provided (i) incoherent scattering on ion cores is allowed to contribute to the scattering cascades inside the solid and (ii) the transmission through the surface
