Theory of photoemission from cesium antimonide using an alpha-semiconductor model
2008
A model of photoemission from cesium antimonide (Cs3Sb) that does not rely on adjustable parameters is proposed and compared to the experimental data of Spicer [Phys. Rev. 112, 114 (1958)] and Taft and Philipp [Phys. Rev. 115, 1583 (1959)]. It relies on the following components for the evaluation of all relevant parameters: (i) a multidimensional evaluation of the escape probability from a step-function surface barrier, (ii) scattering rates determined using a recently developed alpha-semiconductor model, and (iii) evaluation of the complex refractive index using a harmonic oscillator model for the evaluation of reflectivity and extinction coefficient.
