Secondary-electron emission from hydrogen-terminated diamond: Experiments and model

A hydrogen-terminated diamond is a proven efficient electron emitter that can support emission of high average current. Several factors dictate the amplifier’s gain: the number of secondary electrons created at their point of entry into the diamond, the fraction of created electrons transmitted to t...
