Semiconducting field emitters present some interesting features (e.g.; self-limited electron emission) for both scientific interest and industrial applications. The analysis of experimental results and device design has been restrained by…
Both single emitters and large area field emitters (LAFE) are generally characterized using the slope and intercept of a Murphy-Good (or Fowler-Nordheim) plot which are used to extract the field enhancement factor and the emission area.…
We report on the application of Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM) for studying the Field Emission (FE) properties of a dense array of long and vertically quasi-aligned multi-walled carbon nanotubes grown by catalytic Chemical Vapor Deposition…
In papers on cold field electron emission from large area field emitters (LAFEs), it has become widespread practice to publish a misleading Fowler-Nordheim-type (FN-type) equation. This equation over-predicts the LAFE-average current…
This review of quantitative field emitter electrostatics, covering analytical, numerical and fitted-formula approaches, is thought the first of its kind. The review relates chiefly to situations where emitters operate in an electronically…
Field emisison of electrons crucially depends on the enhancement of the local electric field around nanotips. The enhancement is maximum when individual emitter-tips are well separated. As the distance between two or more nanotips…
The theoretical picture of thermal field-emission (TFE) from semiconductors has been limited to 1D and 2D models. This can be attributed to the complex and interdependent phenomena that is involved in TFE from semiconductors which makes the…
This paper presents an elementary, approximate analytical treatment of cold field electron emission (CFE) from a classical nanowall. A simple model is used to bring out some of the basic physics of a class of field emitter where quantum…
Electron emission from cathodes in high field gradients is a quantum tunneling effect. The 1928 Fowler-Nordheim field emission (FE) equation and the 1956 Murphy-Good FE equation have traditionally been key in describing cold field…
Large area field electron emitters, typically consisting of several thousands of nanotips, pose a major challenge since numerical modeling requires enormous computational resources. We propose a hybrid approach where the local electrostatic…
Field emission (FE) electron sources are made close to atomic-scale to reach the highest spatial resolution as well as stable emission for electron microscopy, electron beam inspection and lithography. At present, no single agreed method…
The oversampling multiscale finite element method (MsFEM) is one of the most popular methods for simulating composite materials and flows in porous media which may have many scales. But the method may be inapplicable or inefficient in some…
Lyman Alpha Emitters (LAEs) are valuable high-redshift cosmological probes traditionally identified using specialized narrow-band photometric surveys. In ground-based spectroscopy, it can be difficult to distinguish the sharp LAE peak from…
The Loewner equation (LE) is used to obtain conformal mappings that lead to exact and analytical expressions for several electrostatic properties of realistic quasi-unidimensional nanoelectromechanical systems (NEMS). The LE approach also…
It is well known that sufficiently strong electrostatic fields are able to change the morphology of Large Area Field Emitters (LAFEs). This phenomenon affects the electrostatic interactions between adjacent sites on a LAFE during field…
In this dissertation, we analytically study the apex field enhancement factor (FEF), $\gamma_a$, by constructing a method which consists in minimizing an error function defined as to measure the deviation of the potential at the boundary,…
This paper proposes an environment-aware near-field (NF) user equipment (UE) tracking method for extremely large aperture arrays. By integrating known surface geometries and tracking the line-of-sight (LOS) and non-line-of-sight (NLOS)…
An important parameter used to characterize large-area field electron emitters (LAFEs) is the characteristic apex field enhancement factor {\gamma}_C. This parameter is normally extracted from the slope of a Fowler-Nordheim (FN) plot.…
In this paper we present a novel approach to FEL simulations based on the decomposition of the electromagnetic field in a finite number of radiation modes. The evolution of each mode amplitude is simply determined by energy conservation.…
Field Emitting Arrays (FEAs) are a promising alternative to the conventional cathodes in different vacuum electronic devices such as traveling wave tubes, electron accelerators and etc. Electrical gating and modulation capabilities,…
