Abstract

Two approaches to calculating the “true” x-ray photoemission from high-efficiency photocathodes are analyzed in the photon energy range 1–10 keV. Analytic expressions are derived for the quantum yield of true x-ray photoelectrons. The calculated values of quantum yield are compared with experimentally measured values.
