摘要
Beginning with rather basic principles, general relations are obtained for evaporative rate constants. These are established both as a function of energy and of temperature. In parallel with this, expressions are developed for the kinetic energy distribution of the separating species. Explicit evaluation of the rate constants in the case of "chemical" evaporation from an entity containing n monomeric units yields as a typical result k(T)(s-1) = 3.10(13)n2/3 exp[6/n1/3]exp(-DELTA-E(a)(n)/k(B)T). Experimental evidence in support of this relation is cited. Applications to thermionic emission are also noted.
