  2. AIM Studies of polyatomic ions in scattering experiments: Ion survival probability, energy transfer at surfaces, fragmentation and chemical reactions at surfaces SURFACES INVESTIGATED - (carbon surfaces (15 – 45 eV)) HOPG (highly-oriented pyrolytic graphite), Tokamak tiles a) room-temperature (covered with hydrocarbons) b)heated to 6000 C 1(“clean”) - carbon (HOPG) surfaces at 3 – 10 eV room temperature, scattering kinematics - tungsten surfaces (15 – 45 eV) room-temperature and heated - beryllium surfaces (15 – 45 eV room-temperature and heated PROJECTILE IONS small hydrocarbon ions : CH3+, CH4+•, CH5+ (D, 13C); C2Hx+(x=2-5), C3Hx+ (x=2-8), cations and dications C7Hn+/2+ (n=6-8) MEASUREMENTS - mass spectra of ion products - translational energy distributions of ion products - angular distributions of ion products

  3. EXPERIMENT PROCESSES OBSERVED • neutralization of ions(survival pobability) • surface-induced dissociations(energy partitioning) • chemical reactions at surfaces(H-atom, CHn-transfer) • scattering kinematics

  4. 1.COLLISIONS OFCDn+ (n=3-5) WITH CARBON(HOPG), ROOM TEMPERATURE, Φs = 300 VERY LOW ENERGY 3 – 11 eV ION SURVIVAL PROBABILITY Sa(%) SA decreases below Einc. = 10 eV to zero

  5. CD5+ (HOPG) MASS SPECTRA OF PRODUCTS ΦS = 300 CD5+ : close-shell, non-reactive projectile ion Observation: -only decreasing product dissociation with decreasing incident energy CD5+→ CD3+ + D2(ΔE ~ 2 eV)

  6. CD5+ (HOPG) ANGULAR DISTRIBUTIONS OF PRODUCTS Einc(CD5+) = 10.45 eV CD5+ CD3+

  7. CD5+ (HOPG) TRANSLATIONAL ENERGY DISTRIBUTIONS OF PRODUCTS Einc(CD5+) = 10.45 eV CD5+ CD3+

  8. CD5+ (HOPG) KINEMATICS: VELOCITY SCATTERING DIAGRAM Einc(CD5+) = 10.45 eV

  9. CD5+ (HOPG) KINEMATICS: EVALUATION Einc(CD5+) = 10.45 eV • Same peak velocity of CD5+ and CD3+: fragmentation AFTER interaction with surface • Effective surface mass for collisions of CD5+: • meff = 62 m.u. • (2xC2H5-, 4xCH3-) • 3. Inelastic collisions: • inelasticity in C.M. • T = 62/84 Einc = 7.7 eV • T’ = 0.29 T • ΔT = T – T’ = 5.49 eV

  10. CD3+ (HOPG) ANGULAR DISTRIBUTIONS OF PRODUCTS Einc(CD3+) = 8.3 eV background fast deflected inelastic scattering

  11. CD3+ (HOPG) TRANSLATIONAL ENERGY DISTRIBUTIONS OF PRODUCTS Einc(CD3+) = 8.3 eV

  12. CD3+ (HOPG) KINEMATICS: EVALUATION Einc(CD3+) = 8.3 eV • No fragmentation of the projectile CD3+. • Effective surface mass for collisions of CD3+: • meff = 29 m.u. • (C2H5-, 2xCH3-) • 3. Inelastic collisions: • inelasticity in C.M. • T = 29/47 Einc = 5.12 eV • T’ = 0.51 T • ΔT = T – T’ =2.62 eV

  13. CD4+ • (HOPG) MASS SPECTRA OF PRODUCTS Φs = 300 open-shell, reactive projectile radical ion • Observation: • - simple fragmentation of projectile ions • CD4+•→ CD3+ + D•(ΔE = 1.8 eV) • chemical reaction with surface material • CD4+•+ H-S → CD4H+ → CD3+ +HD • → CD2H+ + D2 • - fast deflected CD4+ projectile ions of incident energy

  14. SUMMARY • VERY LOW ENERGY (3-10 eV) SCATTERING ON ROOM-TEMPERATURE CARBON SURFACE • 1. Ion survival probability decreases below 10 eV towards zero • 2. Non-reactive ions (CD5+, CD3+): only inelastic collisions, fragmentation indicates dissociation AFTER interaction with the surface (CD5+) • 3. Kinematic analysis: determination of effective mass of the surface involved in the inelastic collision (different for different ions). • 4. Reactive ions (CD4+•): both fragmentation and chemical reaction with surface material (H-atom transfer from surface hydrocarbons: a very sensitive reaction tracing hydrocarbon on the surface).

  15. 2. COLLISIONS WITH TUNGSTEN SURFACE • Sample Material: • 99.9% w-sheet (0.05 mm) cleaned mechanically or chemically to remove surface impurities • Observation • Unheated fresh sample: about 5 % of projectile ions deflected with full incident energy (evidently not hitting the surface at all) • Heated sample: heating decreases the amount of deflected ions to 0.05 % or less • Room-temperature sample after heating: the amount of deflected ions remains under 0.1% • XPS analysis of the sample • Unheated fresh sample: tungsten oxides and small amount of tungsten carbide + hydrocarbon C-H groups on the surface • Sample after heating: decrease of tungsten oxides, sharp increase of tungsten carbides (2.5-times: evidently degradation of surface hydrocarbons) • CONCLUSION • Fresh sample: Islands of insulating matter (presumably tungsten oxides) cause part of projectile ions to be deflected by surface charge • Heating decreases the amount of surface oxides and strongly increases the amount of non-insulating tungsten carbide (collisions mostly with WC on the surface) • Room-temperature sample after heating: hydrocarbon layer of mostly WC surface

  16. ION SURVIVAL PROBABILITY, Sa (%) CONCLUSION: survival probability on W or Be usually about 5-10x smaller than on HOPG

  17. MASS SPECTRA OF PRODUCT IONS

  18. TRANSLATIONAL ENERGY DISTRIBUTIONS OF PRODUCTS --------- room temperature --------- heated to 6000C

  19. SUMMARY • COLLISIONS OF SMALL HYDROCARBON IONS: • TUNGSTEN VS. CARBON SURFACES • W-surface: fraction of projectile ions deflected by surface charges (up to 5 % on fresh room-temp surface), decreases with or after heating of the surface. Probable reason: islands of W-oxides on the surfaces • Survival probability: on W-surfaces up to 10-times smaller than on C-surfaces (HOPG) • W-surface at room–temperature covered with hydrocarbons: analogous to C- surfaces • - fragmentation and chemical reactions of radical projectile ions • - CH4+: H-atom transfer, formation of C2- and C3- hydrocarbons; • - C2D4+: H-atom transfer, formation of C3- hydrocarbons • W-surface heated: only fragmentation of projectile ions: analogous to C-surfaces • 4. Inelasticity of surface collisions (from product ion translational energy distributions): • - similar on W-surfaces to that on C-surfaces • room-temperature: collisions with hydrocarbons on the surfaces • heated: collision with WC on the surface(?) • - heated surfaces usually less inelastic (similarly as on C-surfaces) • - for C1-projectile ions: less inelastic with increasing incident energy, i.e. • fraction of energy in translation slightly increases

  20. 3. COLLISIONS WITH BERYLLIUM SURFACES • Sample Material: • Be-foil, 0.5 mm, >99% Be (Goodfellow), cleaned mechanically to remove surface impurities • Observation • Unheated fresh sample: several % of projectile ions deflected with full incident energy (evidently not hitting the surface at all) • Heated sample: heating decreases the amount of deflected ions to 0.05 % or less • Room-temperature sample after heating: the amount of deflected ions remains under 0.1% • XPS analysis of the sample • Unheated fresh sample: on the surface Be-oxides, Be-carbides, 42 % Be as metal; 78% hydrocarbon C-H groups on the surface, small amount of carbon (~10%) also in C=O and COOH groups • Sample after heating: Be as metal decreases to 9 %, sharp increase of Be-carbides (to 18% - 32%) carbidic phase covered with hydrocarbons on room-temperature surface; surface also contains Be-oxides (67% of Be in oxides) • CONCLUSION • Fresh sample: Islands of insulating matter cause part of projectile ions to be deflected by surface charge • Heating decreases the amount of insulating material on the surface and strongly increases the amount of Be-carbide. • Room-temperature sample after heating: hydrocarbon layer on at least part of the surface (BeC).

  21. CD5+ - Be ANGULAR DISTRIBUTION OF PRODUCTS ΦS = 300, room-temperature surface after heating CD3+ Einc = 45.4 eV CD3+ Einc = 30.9 eV

  22. CD5+ - Be TRANSLATIONAL ENERGY DISTRIBUTION OF PRODUCTS ΦS = 300, room-temperature surface after heating Einc = 30.9 eV Einc = 45.4 eV Energy losses (21%, 38%,56%) recalculated to CD5+

  23. C2D4+• - Be ANGULAR DISTRIBUTION OF PRODUCTS Einc = 15.8 eV, ΦS = 300, room-temperature surface after heating C2D3+ C2D4+→C2D3+ + D →C2D4H+ → C2D3+ + HD 1. Simple dissociation 2. chemical reaction + dissociation C2D2H+ C2D4+ →C2D4H+ → C2D2H+ + D2 chemical reaction + dissociation

  24. C2D4+• - Be TRANSLATIONAL ENERGY DISTRIBUTION OF PRODUCTS ΦS = 300, room-temperature surface after heating • C2D3+ • C2D4+→C2D3+ + D • → C2D4H+ → C2D3+ + HD • Simple dissociation • 2. chemical reaction + dissociation • Einc = 15.8 eV Observation: Three different energy losses to 23%, 37%, and 57% of Einc, probability angle-dependent; presumably scattering from different surface material

  25. C2D4+• - Be TRANSLATIONAL ENERGY DISTRIBUTION OF PRODUCTS ΦS = 300, room-temperature surface after heating C2D2H+ C2D4+ →C2D4H+ → C2D2H+ + D2(chemical reaction + dissociation) Einc = 15.8 eV Observation: Surface chemical reaction: Two different energy losses to 25% and 39% of Einc, probability angle-dependent; presumably scattering from different surface material. Evidently, high-energy (59% Einc) and low-angle scattering is non-reactive (only fragmentation)

  26. C2D4+• - Be ANGULAR DISTRIBUTION OF PRODUCTS Einc = 15.8 eV, ΦS = 300, heated surface to 6000C C2D3+

  27. C2D4+• - Be TRANSLATIONAL ENERGY DISTRIBUTION OF PRODUCTS Einc = 15.8 eV, ΦS = 300, heated surface to 600oC

  28. C2D4+• - Be KINEMATICS: EVALUATION Einc = 15.8 eV, ΦS = 300, room-temperature and heated A: meff = 59 m.u. (2BeO) B: meff = 47 m.u. (3 CH3, C3H7) C: meff = 30 m.u. (2CH3, C2H5), No chemical reaction in low-angle scattering

  29. SUMMARY • SCATTERING ON BERYLLIUM SURFACES • Survival probability comparable to that on W-surfaces (lower than on carbon) • On fresh room-temperature surfaces several % of incident ions deflected without collision, heating and after heating this fraction decreases to ~0.1 % or less. • Reactive ions (CD4+, C2D4+): on room-temperature surfaces both simple dissociation and chemical reaction (+ dissociation). Main reaction : H-atom transfer from reaction with surface hydrocarbons (similarly as on C or W). • Scattering on Be-surfaces more complex than on C or W: structures both in angular distributions and translational energy distributions. Presumably connected with various materials on the surface (oxides, carbides, only partially covered with hydrocarbons on room-temperature surfaces).

  30. POSITIONS OF PEAKS IN TRANSLATIONAL ENERGY DISTRIBUTION OF PRODUCTS (MEAN INELASTICITY OF SURFACE COLLISIONS)

  31. PROBABILITY OF ION SURVIVAL • DEPENDENCE ON INCIDENT ANGLE IONS FROM ETHANOL (SS SURFACE COVERED BY HYDROCARBONS) C2H5OH+• C2H5OH2+, C2H5O+ CONCLUSIONS - survival probability depends strongly on incident angle: lower for steep collisions - survival much higher for ions of low ionization energy (usually closed-shell ions), for ions of IE> ~10.5 eV about an order of magnitude lower
