Interface MonteCarloSS.ElectronGun

All Known Implementing Classes:

MonteCarloSS.GaussianBeam

Enclosing class:

MonteCarloSS

public static interface MonteCarloSS.ElectronGun

This interface allows the user to modify the properties of the electron gun. By implementing this interface, the user can create guns with a beam width, guns that raster or a variety of different gun properties. Use MonteCarloSS.setElectronGun to specify the implementation of this interface.
Note: The electron is rastered by moving the initial point rather than varying the beam angle. This is not realistic but is better numerically as the angles are otherwise tiny and subject to rounding errors.
