Abstract
The paper presents a treatment of basic cold field electron emission (CFE) theory which concentrates mainly on CFE from metals. Fowler-Nordheim (FN) type equations are derived and their limitations are discussed. FN type equations may help with the interpretation of experimental CFE phenomena. Barriers and FN plots are also discussed.
