The current due to cold tunneling of electrons from a metallic surface exposed to high electric fields, regularly named “dark current,” is commonly described in modern literature using an analytical approximate solution provided by Murphy and Good [Phys. Rev. 102, 1464 (1956)]. This expression, which corrects earlier work by Fowler and Nordheim, is a Fowler-Nordheim-type equation: , where is the dark current, is the local electric field, and is a system-specific constant. In this paper, a numerical approximation, rather than the analytical one given by Murphy and Good, is presented. This approximation is accurate over a wide range of fields, and is used to derive the effective field enhancement factor . On the basis of this approximation, and considering local field and current fluctuations, two alternative methods for estimation are presented. These methods allow instantaneous field-specific estimation of , rather than the average estimate derived with current methods. The applicability of fluctuation-based methods is demonstrated by numerical simulation in a variety of conditions. The methods are applied to estimate using fluctuation analysis in experimental measurements that were not dedicated for this purpose. An open-source code for the implementation of fluctuation-derived estimation is provided, with an analysis of possible future experimental opportunities using dedicated experiments.

场发射电流的统计分析
现代文献中通常使用 Murphy 和 Good [Phys. 修订版 102, 1464 (1956)]。这个表达式纠正了 Fowler 和 Nordheim 早期的工作,是一个 Fowler-Nordheim 类型的方程:, 在哪里 是暗电流, 是局部电场,并且 是系统特定的常数。在本文中,提出了一种数值近似,而不是 Murphy 和 Good 给出的解析近似。这种近似在很宽的场范围内都是准确的,并用于推导出有效场增强因子. 在这种近似的基础上,并考虑到局部场和电流波动,两种替代方法提出了估计。这些方法允许瞬时场特定估计,而不是使用当前方法得出的平均估计值。在各种条件下的数值模拟证明了基于波动的方法的适用性。该方法用于估计在并非专门用于此目的的实验测量中使用波动分析。一个实现波动导出的开源代码 提供了估算,并使用专用实验分析了未来可能的实验机会。
