Abstract
Exo-ELECTRON emission, the vaporization of very low energy electrons from solids, can be produced in a variety of ways, mechanical deformation, X-ray irradiation and chemical reaction. The emission usually decays in an exponential fashion, but, provided the excitation is not great enough to produce normal electron emission, steady exo-electron emission can be produced by steady excitation.
