Abstract Based on the rough surface topography with fractal parameters and the Monte-Carlo simulation method for secondary electron emission properties, we analyze the secondary electron yield (SEY) of a metal with rough surface topography. The results show that when the characteristic length scale of the surface, G, is larger than 1× 10-7, the surface roughness increases with the increasing fractal dimension D. When the surface roughness becomes larger, it is difficult for entered electrons to escape surface. As a result, more electrons are collected and then SEY decreases. When G is less than 1× 10-7, the effect of the surface topography can be ignored, and the SEY almost has no change as the dimension D increases. Then, the multipactor thresholds of a C-band rectangular impedance transfer and an ultrahigh-frequency-band coaxial impedance transfer are predicted by the relationship between the SEY and the fractal parameters. It is verified that for practical microwave devices, the larger the parameter G is, the higher the multipactor threshold is. Also, the larger the value of D, the higher the multipactor threshold.

Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
