La carte exoélectronique d'un échantillon d'aluminium. La surface de l'échantillon est balayée par un faisceau de photons ultraviolets, qui transmettent leur énergie (...) aux électrons du métal et provoquent leur émission. (...) On envoie le faisceau amplifié sur les plaques verticales d'un oscillographe. Si l'on synchronise le balayage du spot ultraviolet et la tension de l'oscilloscope, on obtient sur l'écran la carte exoélectronique de l'échantillon. 2, record 2, French, - exo%C3%A9lectronique
