Abstract
A compact rod-fed electron beam source is described which provides clean and controlled deposition of high-temperature materials at relatively low rates. The source is inexpensively fabricated as a flange-mounted, bolt-on accessory to a surface analysis or deposition chamber, requires only two commonly available power supplies to operate, and does not interfere with the use of surface electron spectroscopies during operation.
