    Description: Dielectric surface-charge distributions near a metal-dielectric interface in vacuum depend upon secondary emission processes in the presence of normal and tangential components of electric field. From measured charge distributions created by exposing a specimen of fluorinated ethylene-propylene to monoenergetic electron fluxes, it has been possible to calculate potentials and fields on and near the dielectric surface. The effect of the normal electric field upon secondary emission is measured directly, and the effect of the tangential field is inferred from the charge-distribution data. The critical point (unity crossover) for secondary emission is shifted by the application of fields, so that it occurs at much higher primary energies than normally. Primary beams having energies up to 20 keV are used, and surface fields are as high as 20 kV/mm.

    Description: The emission of secondary electrons from dielectrics subject to numerous effects of electric field which are experimentally difficult to control is discussed. Measurements are reported using pulse techniques such that local fields do not build to significant levels, but measurements with fields present are also of interest. A specific series of measurements under controlled conditions are described and their implications in terms of fields, magnitude and angle, near the dielectric surface were examined. The measurements were made for a charged fluorinated-ethylene-propylene surface near a grounded aluminum half-round resting on the surface. The geometry produced a stable surface-charge gradient being controlled by a strongly enhanced secondary emission for which a model is constructed. Observations of surface flashovers under various conditions confirm the predictions of some scaling exercises.

    Description: Experimental methods of mapping the equipotential surfaces near some structure of interest rely on the detection of charged particles which have traversed the regions of interest and are detected remotely. One method is the measurement of ion energies for ions created at a point of interest and expelled from the region by the fields. The ion energy at the detector in eV corresponds to the potential where the ion was created. An ionizing beam forms the ions from background neutrals. The other method is to inject charged particles into the region of interest and to locate their exit points. A set of several trajectories becomes a data base for a systematic mapping technique. An iterative solution of a boundary value problem establishes concepts and limitations pertaining to the mapping problem.
