The transition from field emission to collisional space-charge limited current with nonzero initial velocity
Abstract Multiple electron emission mechanisms often contribute in electron devices, motivating theoretical studies characterizing the transitions between them. Previous studies unified thermionic and field emission, defined by the Richardson-Laue-Dushman (RLD) and Fowler–Nordheim (FN) equations, re...
