Abstract
Full temperature range electron and ion emission data from seven refractory metals in cesium vapor are reported in the range of cesium arrival flux from 1012 to 1018 atoms/cm2·sec, as determined from measurements between 1013 and 1017 atoms/cm2·sec. Electron‐emission S curves and cesium surface ionization critical temperature envelopes are shown.This publication has 5 references indexed in Scilit:
