Abstract

Cold molecular beams generated by skimming pulsed supersonic gas expansions normally employ conical skimmers. The use of slit shaped skimmers instead of conical skimmers can afford significant signal enhancements. At this time, however, slit shaped skimmers are not available commercially. We describe a straightforward method for producing functional slit skimmers.

摘要

通过掠过脉冲超声气体膨胀产生的冷分子束通常采用锥形撇油器。使用狭缝形撇油器而非锥形撇油器可以显著增强信号。然而，目前狭缝形撇油器尚无商业供应。我们描述了一种制造功能性狭缝撇油器的简单方法。
