Abstract
A new version of the FEM-FIM-IAP combination system is being built in the Institute of Quantum Optics and Field Emission at the Huazhong Normal University. With a specially designed convertible chevron channel plate assembly, kinds of power supplies and a pulsed laser, the system can work not only as the conventional FEM, FIM or IAP but also in somewhat new modes. Using it we can get comparable data from the same sample in different ways. It has wide applications. In particular, it provides us a means to approach the effects of the applied field and laser pulse on the results obtained with the field emission technique.
