10 Edison’s experiment B A Edison effect

11 Factors affecting rate of thermionic emission
Temperature of the surface: t , rate of emission  2. Nature of the metal surface:  work function, rate of emission  Surface area of the metal: surface area , rate of emission 

12 Requisites of a good e- emitter
Work function: low 2. Melting point of the metal: high Tungsten – melting point K work function eV Thoriated tungsten - work function – 2.6 eV Tungsten coated with Ba/Cs/Sr - work function – 1 eV
