Abstract
We have theoretically investigated the cooling effect of field emission from metals and n-type semiconductors. The potential energy was found as a function of the tip curvature and the emission distance. The use of the obtained potential leads to the calculation of the energy exchange as a function of two geometrical quantities. The cooling power needed for micro-electronic device is obtained for field emission from the highly n-doped Si semiconductor.
