The Influence of Contact and Interface Effects of the Electronic Properties and Stability of Chemically Unstable Materials.
Abstract
This report summarizes an effort to assess the usefulness of electron beam probe analysis, such as Auger electron spectroscopy (AES), in the analysis of initiation event in primary explosives, principally, azides. Attempts were made to extract a variety of chemical and physical information from AES analyses of KN and NaN3 crystal specimens to determine whether one could ascribe the chemical instability of these materials to surface as distinct from volume properties.
