Abstract
A Philips thermionic emission electron microscope has been converted into a photoemission electron microscope by the addition of a simple ultraviolet illumination system and an electron multiplier array for image intensification. Photoemission images are formed without heating or activation of the surface. One example includes the first electron optical image of exoelectron emission from an abraded metal surface.Keywords
