Thermal runaway of metal nano-tips during intense electron emission
A. Kyritsakis, M. Veske, K. Eimre +2
When an electron emitting tip is subjected to very high electric fields, plasma forms even under ultra high vacuum conditions. This phenomenon, known as vacuum arc, causes catastro…
Simulations of surface stress effects in nanoscale single crystals
Vahur Zadin, Mihkel Veske, Simon Vigonski +5
Onset of vacuum arcing near a metal surface is often associated with nanoscale asperities, which may dynamically appear due to different processes ongoing in the surface and subsur…
Electrodynamics - molecular dynamics simulations of the stability of Cu nanotips under high electric field
Mihkel Veske, Stefan Parviainen, Vahur Zadin +2
The shape memory effect and pseudoelasticity in Cu nanowires is one possible pair of mechanisms that prevents high aspect ratio nanosized field electron emitters to be stable at ro…
