Abstract
The field emission current density j from AlxGa1-x N is calculated as a function of stoichiometry. Using the reported x-dependence of the electron affinity χ and the carrier concentration n, we calculate j as a function of x only. The plot of j versus x is found to exhibit a peak whose position changes with an external field F
