Abstract
The photoemission intensity of alkali-metal valence electrons from Na-covered Cu(100) depends on coverage and photon energy in a manner which can be explained in terms of the surface barrier emission from a thin jellium layer with an electron density proportional to the Na coverage.Keywords
