Abstract: This work reports a novel multifunctional integrated experimental setup designed for investigating low-energy ion-surface interactions. The system incorporates multiple techniques, including dual-detector time-of-flight energy loss spectroscopy, time-of-flight mass spectroscopy, and position-sensitive charge-state spectroscopy, enabling in-situ investigation of energy loss of particles, surface analysis and charge exchange of particles in the ultra-high vacuum condition. The design of the setup and the related examples are well discussed in this work. By overcoming the limitations of traditional isolated measurement approaches, this integrated setup provides an efficient and reliable experimental platform for in-depth exploration of multiple physical processes in ion-surface interactions.
