Abstract :
Images of electron emission from an 8 micron thick diamond sheet, resulting from electron bombardment on a limited area of the back side, reveal emission from the entire negative electron affinity surface. This shows electrons move several hundred microns from the generation volume before being emitted, probably in states at the surface.
