<Saul Dushman> investigated <electron> emission from metals as a function of <temperature>. Thermal emission connects the population of sufficiently energetic <electrons> with the energy required to escape a surface.
The strong <temperature> dependence makes the phenomenon useful in <electron> sources, while the surface state and <work function> affect quantitative interpretation.<Electron Emission from Metals as a Function of Temperature by Saul Dushman>[1923, publisher abstract]{ref}
