Response functions of the ELPI impactor with normal and porous substrates are presented together with fit functions to describe particle collection. In addition to primary collection efficiency, fits for the secondary collection mechanisms, diffusion, image charge force, and space charge field are presented. Charging efficiency for different configurations is also presented. Presented response functions can be used in data reduction and inversion of ELPI data.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
