Abstract
The design and performance are described of a simple and inexpensive parallel-plate energy analyser used for measuring the energy distribution of ions reaching the cathode of an abnormal glow discharge particularly under the actual conditions pertaining during the evaporation of a metal in the ion plating process.Keywords
