Abstract
The sensitivity of the correction factor, which describes the combined effect of finite film thickness and the thick substrate in the measurement of atomic inner-shell ionization cross-sections by low-energy electron impact, to the adopted ionization cross-sections in the Monte Carlo simulation is discussed. Moreover, the electron escape ratio from the Faraday cup in our experiment is also obtained by Monte Carlo method.
