"Despite the decline in their use after the advent of semiconductor devices, hot cathodes still find applications in specialized detectors and high-power systems. This paper focuses on the simulation of the thermal behavior of an oxide cathode (Y2O3), considering the variation in emissivity as a function of both material and temperature. Most previous studies on hot cathodes have overlooked the importance of radiative emissivity, a parameter that significantly affects thermal exchange, electronic emission and hence the measurement of the work function with a Richardson plot. Our results emphasize the need for a precise measurement of material emissivity to accurately assess cathode performance and enable fair comparisons between different cathode types."
