Electric static analyzer is our first candidate as the energy selector.
1.1.1 A modified Bernas source
Only the ions with correct KE will make through.
After few iterations the current source is a Bernas source with exit ein-
sel lenses to give a more paralell beam. Adding three more lenses to
the bernas source gives us a very convergnet beam.
Total numbers of ion by default is 500. To increase the number one
has to change memory allocation of simion. I shall try this later.
To analyzie the randomness of our beam, we can perform moment
analysis in this couter region. But we need more ions. Or I can run
multiple 500-ions simulation and combine the results. This shall be
done later. The thing is the beam will not be perfectly uniform espe-
cially after deflecting/scanning. It can have skewness.
