Emission of Light. An overview of light emission. Light can be produced by matter which is in an excited state and as it will be shown excitation can come from a variety of sources. The atoms and molecules that make up matter typically emit light at characteristic energies. The light emission can be spontaneous or stimulated.
Thermionic emission. Thermionic emission definition. The process by which free electrons are emitted from the surface of a metal when external heat energy is applied is called thermionic emission. Thermionic emission occurs in metals that are heated to a very high temperature. In other words, thermionic emission occurs, when large amount of external energy in the form of heat is supplied to the free electrons in the metals.
