In this paper, the authors used Diabatic correlation diagrams for asymmetric collisions for the determination of the deep holes involved in the Auger transitions, in the case of a Be target, they are in good agreement with the dependence of Auger intensities upon the nature of the incident ion.Abstract:
Energy spectra of secondary electrons emitted by ion-bombarded targets show the presence of Auger electrons, and of two or three characteristic losses attributed to surface plasmon excitations. Diabatic correlation diagrams for asymmetric collisions can be used for the determination of the deep holes involved in the Auger transitions. In the case of a Be target, they are in good agreement with the dependence of the Auger intensities upon the nature of the incident ion.read more

Transport theory for kinetic emission of secondary electrons from solids
TL;DR: In this paper, the energy and angular distribution of the secondary electrons and the secondary electron yield are both expressed as products of the deposited energy at the surface of the target and a factor which depends only on the properties of the escaping secondary electrons.

Review on kinetic ion-electron emission from solid metallic targets
TL;DR: The main results on recent experimental and theoretical investigations of kinetic electron emission from solids under ionic bombardment are presented in this article, where the variation of the electron emission yield γ as a function of the ion and target parameters are summarized.

Principles and applications of ion-induced auger electron emission from solids
TL;DR: The field of ion-neutralization spectroscopy (INS) was initiated by Hagstrum et al. as discussed by the authors, who showed how the basic formalism of transition rates for Auger neutralization, reveals the basic physical mechanisms involved, and provides the foundation for the method of Ion Neutralization Spectroscopy.

Auger electron spectroscopy of Si
John T. Grant,T. W. Haas +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the identification of the Auger transitions from clean Si surfaces is made, and it is found that some may involve multiple ionization, which may be due to oxidation or combination with carbon in SiC.
