Abstract
Measurements have been made with a Geiger counter of photo‐exoemission from aluminum. The effects of time, temperature, and various adsorbates on the electron emission rate were measured. Adsorption reduces the electron emission rate; ion bombardment within the counter is shown to remove the effects of adsorbed gases. Adsorption of atmospheric gases can explain previously reported decay in emission and temperature effects.This publication has 10 references indexed in Scilit:
