Abstract
To characterize nanoobjects, a non-contact technique is preferable. Low energy electron has a mean free path on in a solid that is on order of nanoscale. Emission of these electrons from a solid is considered to characterize nanoobjects for sensing applications. This paper considers applications and limitations of weak electron emission for chemical and radiation sensors.
