Figure 13 shows a SEM photo of a single EV shot on a Palladium (Pd) target from a 40
pF capacitor charged to 3,000 Volts (containing 7.5 x 1011 electrons). At least 100 tiny
craters were formed in the target. The larger craters formed in the Pd target as seen in
the photo suggest a very energetic impact that melted the Pd locally, making a small
hole surrounded by a crater wall.
