Spin sensitivity of a channel electron multiplier
- 1. Radiation Physics Division, National Bureau of Standards, Gaithersburg, Maryland 20899
Description
We report direct measurements of the sensitivity of a channel electron multiplier to electrons with different spin orientations. Four regions of the multiplier cone were examined using polarized electrons at 100-eV incident energy. Pulse counting and analog modes of operation were both investigated and in each case the observed spin effects were less than 0.5%
