Cesium Oxide History

L. R. Koller described the first modern photoemissive surface in 1929–30 as a layer of caesium on a layer of caesium oxide on a layer of silver.

Cesium Oxide Uses

Cesium Oxide (CAS NO.20281-00-9) is used in photocathodes to detect infrared signals in devices such as image intensifiers, vacuum photodiodes, photomultipliers, and TV camera tubes. It is a good electron emitter; however, its high vapor pressure limits its usefulness.
