7 results about "Metal work function" patented technology

For a metal, the work function has a simple interpretation. At absolute zero, the energy of the most energetic electrons in a metal is referred to as the Fermi energy; the work function of a metal is then equal to the energy required to raise an electron with the Fermi energy to the energy level corresponding to an electron at rest in vacuum.
