It is shown that Gibbsian segregation is an important feature of the redistribution of alkali metal in the surface of glass during electron irradiation. A model that couples the effects of segregation, desorption, and diffusion is presented. The model is used to simulate the alkali-metal ion desorption flux, and both the ion-scattering- and Auger-electron-spectroscopy signal changes, which have been experimentally measured.

Abstract
It is shown that Gibbsian segregation is an important feature of the redistribution of alkali metal in the surface of glass during electron irradiation. A model that couples the effects of segregation, desorption, and diffusion is presented. The model is used to simulate the alkali-metal ion desorption flux, and both the ion-scattering- and Auger-electron-spectroscopy signal changes, which have been experimentally measured.File in questo prodotto:
