A thin-collector Bayard-Alpert gauge for 10/sup -12/ Torr vacuum

Description: The changes in the sensitivity (S) and the equivalent X-ray limit (P/sub x/) of several Bayard-Alpert gauges (BAGs) were studied when the size of the collectors was reduced from 125 ..mu.. to 50 ..mu.. and when different mounting envelopes were used. Based on this study, 400 custom BAGs with 50 ..mu.. collector were purchased from a vendor. The S and the P/sub x/ of these thin-collector BAGs were also measured.
