Secondary electrons are used in making topographical pictures of specimens in the scanning electron microscope. A better understanding of the secondary emission process will contribute in improving the resolution in this mode of operation.Recent experiments have indicated first that the escape depth of secondary electrons is a few atomic layers at the surface of the solid and second that the backscattered electrons are much more efficient in producing secondaries than the incoming ones. The results vary considerably. However, any model that one makes, for example similar to that of Jonker, consistent with these recent experimental results, will have the thickness as an important parameter.
