Abstract
A study of the 3D electron transfer from a spherical nano-particle in vacuum is presented as a continuation of a similar 1D analysis. The 3D confinement of the electronic states is analyzed and the emission current in vacuum is obtained as a function of the applied voltage on a distant anode.
