Interpretation of field emission current-voltage data: background theory and detailed simulation testing of a user-friendly webtool

Mohammad M. Allaham, Richard G. Forbes, Alexandr Knapek +4

In field electron emission (FE) studies, to interpret current-voltage data and extract characterization parameters, we use smooth planar metal-like emitter (SPME) methodology and a…

Implementation of the orthodoxy test as a validity check on experimental field emission data

Mohammad M. Allaham, Richard G. Forbes, Alexander Knapek +1

In field electron emission (FE) studies, it is important to check and analyse the quality and validity of experimental current-voltage data, which is usually plotted in one of a sm…

Applying the field emission orthodoxy test to Murphy-Good plots

Mohammad M. Allam, Richard G. Forbes, Marwan S. Mousa

In field electron emission (FE) studies, it is important to check and analyse the quality and validity of results experimentally obtained from samples, using suitably plotted curre…

Numerical testing by a transfer-matrix technique of Simmons' equation for the local current density in metal-vacuum-metal junctions

Alexandre Mayer, Marwan S. Mousa, Mark J. Hagmann +1

We test the consistency with which Simmons' model can predict the local current density obtained for flat metal-vacuum-metal junctions. The image potential energy used in Simmons'…

Fowler-Nordheim Plot Analysis: a Progress Report

Richard G. Forbes, Jonathan H. B. Deane, Andreas Fischer +1

The commonest method of characterizing a cold field electron emitter is to measure its current-voltage characteristics, and the commonest method of analysing these characteristics…

Influence of barrier form on Fowler-Nordheim plot analysis

Andreas Fischer, Marwan S. Mousa, Richard G. Forbes

Recent research has described an improved method of Fowler-Nordheim plot analysis, based on the definition and evaluation of a slope correction factor and a new form of intercept c…
