QuickField simulations for electron/ion optics
Webinar recorded on June 11, 2014.
During this webinar we will explain how to use QuickField for calculating the charged particle trajectories in electromagnetic fields.
Different approaches will be discussed. We will start from simple example and show how to calculate the charged particle dynamics manually. Then we will demonstrate the built-in QuickField Postprocessor tool for non-relativistic particle trajectory analysis in electrostatic field. We will show how to use the free open-source ActiveField based utility TrajectoryTracer for calculation of the trajectories in magnetic fields. And for more complicated problems of electron/ion optics we will refer to combined use of QuickField with specialized third-party programs.
