A new attempt to further reduce the work function of the cesiated surface: The strongest electronegative element fluorine co-adsorption with cesium on Mo (001) surface

The efficiency of hydrogen negative ion production in negative ion sources depends on the work function of the molybdenum surface. Deposition of cesium (Cs) atoms on the Mo surface reduces the work function from over 4.0 eV to about 1.50–1.80 eV. However, the Fermi level remains below the affinity l...
