Abstract
Ultraviolet photoelectron spectra of Cs evaporated onto Ag and oxidized under ultra-high-vacuum conditions have been measured. Time variation of the spectra indicates the formation of Cs suboxides (e.g., O, ). The high infrared photoelectric yield of Ag/O/Cs cathodes can be explained as due to the excitattion of surface plasmons in these compounds.
