Low energy electron beams (LEEB), typically between 300 and 800 keV, have been used for many years to modify surface properties and decontaminate surfaces. Their low penetration depth allows for precise surface treatment without affecting underlying layers, and the compact, self-shielding accelerators can be mounted...
