Enhanced Photoemission of Nanostructured Metal Films Supporting Localized Plasmon Resonances

In the present work the photoelectric emission from island sodium films was investigated. Appreciable deviations from Fowler's law as well as an increase of the photoelectrons yield for the island films were discovered. The dependences of the photoeffect efficiency on the films structural param...

Description
Summary:In the present work the photoelectric emission from island sodium films was investigated. Appreciable deviations from Fowler's law as well as an increase of the photoelectrons yield for the island films were discovered. The dependences of the photoeffect efficiency on the films structural parameters, on the polarization and the angle of incidence of the laser radiation were studied. [DOI: 10.1380/ejssnt.2009.563]
