Abstract
We present a calculation for the charging of a dielectric sample submitted in open circuit to a series of consecutive, identical, electron pulses of low energy. The calculation is based on deep trap kinematics and takes full account of space charge effects. Electric field profiles and the potential buildup after n⩽10 pulses are presented, allowing one to infer the important parameter μτ of the material (μ the mobility and τ the trapping time). A comparison with the results of a simple calculation which neglects space charge effects is also given
