Abstract
On the basis of the range-energy relationship, the relationships (L 2–10) among the total stopping power from 2 keV to 10 keV for a metal (S 2–10), the energy exponent (n 2–10), the primary energy at the surface (W p0), and the parameter (A 2–10) were deduced. In addition, the relationships (L 10–30) among the total stopping power from 10 keV to 30 keV for a metal (S 10–30), the energy exponent (n 10–30), W p0 and the parameter (A 10–30) were obtained. According to some relationships between the parameters of the secondary electron yield from 2 keV to 10 keV for a metal (δ 2–10), the composition of the secondary electron yield from 10 keV to 30 keV for a metal (δ 10–30), L 2–10, and L 10–30, the universal formula for expressing S 2–10 as a function of S 10–30, δ 2–10, δ 10–30, the backscattered coefficient (η) from 2 keV to 10 keV, η from 10 keV to 30 keV and W p0 was deduced. The S 2–10 calculated from this universal formula and the S 2–10 measured experimentally were compared, and we conclude that the formula presented in this paper is universal for S 2–10.
