+\subsection{Control Circuit}
The control circuit diagram for the electron gun is shown in Figure \ref{electron_gun.pdf}. The wiring of the circuit, including resistors and potentiometers, was incoroprated into a single box, with external connections available for the power supplies, ammeters, electron gun, and sample holder. Both the components and operation of this circuit are straightforward; we will give a brief overview here for completeness.

\subsection{The Ammeters}
An ideal ammeter has no input resistance. In reality, it is not the current that is measured, but the voltage accross a fixed input resistor. This voltage can either be amplified, or the resistance increased, for measuring a smaller current.
+Since there is a voltage drop across the ammeter, the potential of the surface relative to the cathode is actually $U + I R$, where $R$ is the input resistance of the ammeter.

The 602 and 610B electrometers both provide a large range of scales and amplifier settings for current measurement. Using a low scale setting increases the input impedance, which increases the potential drop accross the ammeter. However, using a large amplifier gain increases noise; hence there is a trade off. For the 602 and 610B electrometers, a significant drift (typical +5\% of scale in 10min) in the zero level was also observed at high amplifier gains, whilst low gains appeared more stable (+10\% noted after 2 days).
