Electron and Photon Interactions with KClO<sub>4</sub>

The interaction of KClO<sub>4</sub> with electron beam and x-ray photons was examined. From the Auger data, it was found the electrons rapidly decompose KClO<sub>4</sub>. High resolution XPS showed KClO<sub>4</sub> to be unstable to non-monochromatic Mg and Ti photon sources and stable to monochromatized AlK<sub>α</sub> x-ray radiation. These data are discussed in terms of degradation mechanisms involving: (1) sample heating and (2) electronic excitations or charge accumulation.

Abstract

The interaction of KClO<sub>4</sub> with electron beam and x-ray photons was examined. From the Auger data, it was found the electrons rapidly decompose KClO<sub>4</sub>. High resolution XPS showed KClO<sub>4</sub> to be unstable to non-monochromatic Mg and Ti photon sources and stable to monochromatized AlK<sub>α</sub> x-ray radiation. These data are discussed in terms of degradation mechanisms involving: (1) sample heating and (2) electronic excitations or charge accumulation.
