Modeling of field emission : protrusive surface at high current regime

This report presents a two dimensional model for field emission from a sharp cathode in high current regime. The trajectories of the electrons emitted from various points on the cathode are determined. The continuity equation is used to determine the charge density in the cathode-anode gap. The spac...
