Abstract: | The thermally stimulated exoelectron emission (TSEE) of oxide films on polycristalline Be substrates can be excited by extremely low energy electron bombardment (primary energies below 5 eV). The emission intensity as a function of primary energy is different for the two groups of high and low temperature glow peaks. A threshold of excitation for the glow maxima below 400°C cannot be measured down to excitation energies of 1 eV, whereas a resonance in the excitation function is found around 3.5 eV for the peaks above that temperature. These excitation functions are discussed in connection with the present emission concepts of BeO. |
