摘要
A new method for driving the D/A controlling an electron spectrometer is described. It is shown that this allows the use of the spectrometer for continuously recording changes in work function, with a precision approaching that of a Kelvin probe, and also provides a monitoring method for highly reproducible dosing of a surface to a constant condition.
