High‐resolution VUV spectrometer/detector investigations of rare‐earth pulsed plasma source (abstract)
Abstract
A 1.5‐m grazing incidence spectrometer with a channel electron multiplier (CEMA) and electronic readout detector has been incorporated with a rare‐earth target, pulsed plasma, continuum source. The spectrometer is compact and portable while maintaining high resolution. The CEMA detector consists of a single multichannel plate (MCP) with coned‐shaped input pores which are cut at a 15‐degree bias to improve efficiency at grazing angles. The source is a rare‐earth plasma generated by a...
