Abstract
Electron emission characteristics for the cone and wedge generic field emitter structures are described. Effects of variations in emitter geometry on electron current, spectral and temporal dispersion of electron emission, and emitter heating are calculated analytically and by computer simulation. Several guidelines for emitter design are suggested
