Description
The WORK FUNCTION OF DIODE (RICHARDSON LAW) apparatus is a high-accuracy laboratory setup designed to experimentally determine the work function of a thermionic diode using Richardson’s law of thermionic emission. This experiment provides a clear understanding of electron emission from heated cathodes and validates the temperature dependence of emission current.
An essential experiment for modern physics and electronics laboratories in engineering colleges, universities, and academic institutions.
