摘　　要：采用深紫外光子激发金阴极产生的冷阴极电子源具有诸多优点,将其应用于电子轰击离子源(EI)有助于获得高质量的离子源。本实验分别采用在JGS2石英玻璃上蒸镀金薄膜构成透射式金阴极、在微通道板(MCP)输入面蒸镀金薄膜构成反射式金阴极,将二者以不同的组合方式装配在一起,通过施加不同的间隙电压,从而获得较大范围的电子流输出,研制出电子束流可调(10^(-11)~10^(-5) A)、均匀分布(非均匀度6.5%)的稳定输出(稳定工作时间大于5 h)电子源,有望在高质量EI源中得到推广和应用。In this study,cold cathode electron sources using deep-UV photons to excite gold cathode and microchannel plate(MCP)were employed to configure a high-quality electron impact ion source(EI)in a mass spectrometry.As an electron multiplying device,MCP can amplify weak signal by thousands of times.Gold was used as a photocathode and it had the characteristics of simple excitation,stable photoemission,and uniform photocurrent density distribution.Combining the characteristics of the two,a series of research were carried out.The gold cathode JGS2 was formed by evaporation gold film on JGS2 quartz glass,and the gold-cathode MCP was formed by evaporation gold film on the input surface of MCP,respectively.The two were assembled in different combinations to develop two kinds of cold cathode electronic sources.Firstly,the deep-UV excited gold cathode MCP was used as the electron source,the output electron beam current range was 10^(-11)-10^(-6) A.When the excitation light source was stable,the electron source could reach a stable state quickly and maintain a stable output for a long time(>5 h).Under the interaction of gold cathode MCP and gold cathode JGS2,the maximum output electron beam current of electron source could reach 10^(-5) A.At the same time,the contributions of reflected photoelectrons and transmitted photoelectrons generated by the gold cathode to the output current under different electric fields were discussed,as for the deeper working mechanism to be solved.In addition,the output electron beam current could be continuously adjusted by changing the working voltage of MCP,so that the cold cathode electron source could be flexibly and quickly adjusted and responded within a certain range.Finally,a fluorescent screen was used to observe the imaging quality of the output current generated by the above system,and the RGB image captured by the high-definition camera was converted into a grayscale image,and the non-uniformity of the image was calculated to be about 6.5%.Therefore,the imaging uniformity of the cold
