Resonances in the electron impact excitation of metastable states of mercury

1984

Metastable excitation of mercury by electron impact is studied at energies up to the first ionisation potential using an energy selected electron beam with an energy spread of 50 meV FWHM. A great number of resonances is observed in the excitation function. Agreement is good on the whole with a recent relativisticR-matrix calculation and with a former analysis of resonances in the elastic cross section.

Photoemission of spin-polarized electrons from negative electron affinity GaAsP

1979

GaAs0.62P0.38 activated to negative electron affinity and irradiated with circularly polarized light of a wavelength shorter than approximately 680 nm emits electrons whose spins are mainly oriented antiparallel to the photon spins. At 650 nm a degree of electron spin polarization around 40% is observed. The spectrum of spin polarization of the photoelectrons is similar to that known from GaAs cathodes but is shifted to shorter wavelengths. 25 μA current of spin-polarized electrons were achieved with a 5 mW He-Ne laser.

Electron resonance scattering from mercury

1977

The differential cross section and the spin polarisation of electrons scattered elastically from mercury have been measured as a function of collision energy in the range 4.0 to 6.0 eV for several selected scattering angles. The observed data can be understood if one assumes that resonances are formed at 4.55 eV in the 2S1/2, at 4.71 eV in the 2D3/2 and at 4.94 eV and 5.51 eV respectively in the 2D5/2 scattering state.
