  • Abstract
    The surface analysis of scandate cathodes has revealed that active substances of Ba, Sc and O formed a layer on the surface of the cathodes. By using First-principles calculation method, the W and Ba-Sc-O-W systems were calculated to study the effect of active elements on the work function of the cathode.
