Description

The experimental values of Inelastic Mean Free Path (λIMFP) of electrons in noble metals (Ag, Au, Cu) are determined in the electron energy range 150-2000 eV. The method used consists of the measurements and theoretical calculations of the coefficient of elastic backscattering of electrons from a solid surface ηe. The obtained values of λIMFP are compared with the data available in the literature. 6 figs., 28 refs. (author)
