Description

The preparation method of high flux neutral atom line
The present invention relates to the preparation method of the highly purified neutral atom line of atom line, particularly high flux.
Generation and control technology for ion beam current is ripe at present, but for the neutral atom line, particularly high flux is (greater than 10 13Atom/cm 2.s) the neutral atom line do not have as yet open mature technology (as Bruce A.Banbks.Sharon K.Rutledge, and Joyce A.Brady, The NASAatomic oxygen effects test program, N89-12582, p.61).Existing beam of neutral atoms takes place and control technology, as: (! ) utilize chemical reaction to produce the technology of atomic beam in some laboratories for studying the interaction of atom and material, though can obtain purer atomic beam, the atomic beam circulation that it produced generally is lower than 10 11Atom/cm 2.s, kinetic energy is lower than 0.1ev.(2) charging into molecular gas in discharge plasma, to carry out ion and collision of molecules exchange electronics be the neutralization technology that more generally adopts at present to produce beam of neutral atoms, and this technology is suitable for having ion beam current than small throughput (less than 10 12Ion/cm 2.s) with than the ion (greater than 100ev) of kinetic energy.And this technology is difficult to obtain highly purified atomic beam.
The object of the present invention is to provide a kind of technology of preparing with high flux, highly purified neutral atom line.
The invention provides a kind of preparation method of high flux neutral atom line, be applicable to the atom that can produce molecular gas, at first molecular gas discharge is formed plasma, be constrained to the high-density plasma bundle by high-intensity magnetic field again, require density greater than 10 12Ion/cm 3It is characterized in that: be with the high atomic number metal plate of back bias voltage as neutralized target with one, the atomic number that the atomic number of metallic plate will form atomic beam is big more than 30, the back bias voltage that is applied should make the incident kinetic energy of beam-plasma in the 5-60ev scope, is required beam of neutral atoms by what reflect on the neutral target.Gas discharge can adopt the DC electric field coupling, RF-coupled or microwave coupling.Confining magnetic field is greater than 1000 Gausses.
When the particle in the plasma during near the neutralized target metallic surface, because the effect of back bias voltage, the particle of positively charged is accelerated, electronics e then is ostracised, the energy of ions size is determined by accelerating voltage, the ion that is accelerated is further near the metallic target surface time, some electronics in the metal can because of Auger transition or resonant transition be left in metal surface and the ion and the formation neutral atom, the atom that neutralization forms further with the atomic collision on metallic target surface, if the quality of target atom is more than incident atoms big (approximately greater than more than 30), then Peng Zhuan result is that incoming particle is reflected, and forms a branch of neutral atom line.The people such as physical mechanism John W.Cuthbertson of reflection have comparatively detailed argumentation, see JohoW.Cuthbertson, Robert W.Motley and Villiam D.Langer, Rev.Sci.Instrm.63 (11), Nov.1992.The flux f of atom line can be by confining magnetic field intensity B control, general f ∝ B 2, its proportionality coefficient needs by measuring.The kinetic energy E of atom line IncBe directly proportional with the back bias voltage Δ V value that puts on neutralized target, its proportionality coefficient generally also needs measuring.The kinetic energy of general incident ion bundle can be in 5-50ev scope inner control.
The present invention can obtain controlled high flux neutral atom line in the laboratory, and beam flux can be at 1013-10 16Atom/cm 2.s scope control, line kinetic energy can be controlled in the 5-40ev scope, atom line kind can be unrestricted substantially, and purity can be near 100%, and the acquisition of this atom line can be research atomic beam and material interaction and develops possible atomic beam material surface modifying provides a kind of new technology.By embodiment in detail the present invention is described in detail below in conjunction with accompanying drawing.
