Infrared Photocathode Research
Abstract
The report summarizes the results of three years of research on infrared photocathodes. Among the highlights covered by the report are the following: discovery of the most efficient 1.06 micron photocathode, development of optimum photocathode processing procedures, quantum yield at 1.3 microns approaching that of the S-1 photosurface at 1.06 microns, empirical relations between the optimum thickness of Cs2O low-work-function surface and the wavelength, empirical relations between the yield and thickness and between the escape probability and thickness of Cs2O-activated photosurfaces, heterocathode concept, a new approach to potentially-efficient infrared photoemission, and low-temperature growth of GaAs on Ge by the Gallium-diethyl-chloride technique.
