Photoemission from Ag

Abstract
UV photoemission spectra from clean, Cs and Cs + O2 coated Ag are reported. The results, which include temperature and angular dependence, are discussed in terms of the Ag band structure. The spectral structure due to the conduction band is discussed with reference to simple two band models with the relativistic effects accounted for in a qualitative manner. New structure is predicted in the absorption spectra of binary solid solutions of free electron like metals.
