Abstract

The possibility of realization of barrier-free field evaporation regime for ions from polar solutions in the conditions when the flux of ions from the liquid is limited by their diffusion and drift from the bulk to the surface is considered. The strength of the electric field extracting ions is estimated by simulating electric fields in an ion source with a track membrane as the interface with allowance for the sizes of channels in the membrane and their density. It is shown that when time-dependent electric fields are used, the regime of barrier-free field evaporation can be realized with an appropriate choice of geometrical parameters of the membrane.
