INVESTIGATION OF THE CHARACTERISTICS OF INTERMETALLIC COMPOUNDS AS THERMIONIC EMITTERS,

Abstract

The evaporation rates of twelve intermetallic beryllides and beryllium have been measured in the temperature range from 900 to 1200 C, using the Langmuir free evaporation technique. The beryllides studied were ZrBe13, Zr2Be17, ZrBe5, ZrBe2, NbBe12, Nb2Be17, NbBe3, NbBe2, TaBe12, Ta2Be17, TaBe3 and TaBe2. Representative results are listed for three temperatures. Evaporation rates are given in mg/sq cm/day. (Author)
