On the physical mechanism of exoelectron emission

Calculation of the Exoelectron Energy Spectrum for NaCl

“…According to this mechanism, during optical and thermal stiniulation, annealing or transformation of lattice defects formed a t preliminary excitation of the crystal occurs. and electron emission takes place a t the expense of the energy released a t such annealing or transformation [2]. I n particular cases the transformation and annealing of the defects responsible for EEE may involve exothermal chemical reactions between molecules of various chemical substances adsorbed on the surfaces of solids or between macromolecules in polymers 131.…”

Calculation of the EEE Parameters at Annealing of the F‐Centres in NaCl Crystals

“…(iii) As a rule, the energy imparted to an electron is more than the emission activation energy and less than the lattice defect formation energy. (iv) The temperatures corresponding to the maxima on the curves of the temperature dependence of thermostimulated exoemission (TSEE) are in good agreement with the temperatures of defect annealing steps [2]. This is an indication of the direct relationship between defect transformation or annealing and exoemission.…”

“…For instance, in the case of insulators and p-type semiconductors there is almost no emission, while the experiments carried out on n-type samples show good reproducibility [2]. Also it should be noted that in the case of illumination the exoemission is observed from p-type samples as well.…”
