The design and test data of the combined device, which is intended to simultaneously measure the surface tensions and electron work functions of metals and alloys in static high vacuum conditions in a tem perature range of 60-400 K, are given. The measurements of the electron work function of pure Na, K, Rb, and Cs and near eutectic alloys of the ternary Na-K-Cs system showed high reliability and accuracy of the obtained data.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
