Figure 2
Ray-tracing simulations of C+ atomic ion flight paths, using the extraction pulse of ±420 V, acceleration voltage of −1750 V and `lens' voltage of −400 V. Cross sections of the cylindrical symmetry are shown, with the dimensions (in mm) of the main regions and apertures marked in red. Panel (a) shows the spatial (radial) imaging of the source region. Panel (b) shows ions with initial kinetic energy of 10 eV, emitted at various angles without extraction pulse delay and (c) shows the 10 eV ions with a 450 ns extraction pulse delay. The blue and violet colors of the ion path mark ions initially flying towards and away from the detector, respectively. The colored vertical-curved lines mark equipotential surfaces. Note that the X- and Y-axes are not on equal scale.
