Abstract
Embodiments of systems, devices, and methods relate to an electrode standoff isolator. An example electrode standoff isolator includes a plurality of adjacent insulative segments positioned between a proximal end and a distal end of the electrode standoff isolator. A geometry of the adjacent insulative is configured to guard a surface area of the electrode standoff isolator against deposition of a conductive layer of gaseous phase materials from a filament of an ion source.
Claims20
An electrostatic lens, comprising:
- a mount plate;
- a biasable electrode;
- and
- an insulative structure positioned relative to the biasable electrode and the mount plate, wherein the insulative structure comprises a plurality of adjacent insulative segments between a proximal end and a distal end of the insulative structure, and wherein each adjacent insulative segment comprises a horizontal exterior surface between two rounded edges.
