Abstract
Mathematical and computer model of field desorption process from metal nanocrystal tip is proposed. The radius of curvature on the top of the emitter is about 50 lattice parameters. The model includes initial calculation of intersection between the crystal lattice and emitter shape for bcc and fcc crystal structures. Arbitrary axisymmetric shapes (figures of rotation) can be used for the emitter model. The algorithm for allocation of atoms being desorbed at given time step is based on an analysis of geometric environment with specified local electric field. Polyhedron nanostructured shape of emitter is obtained as result of evaporation. Computer program realization (Matlab stand alone application) is presented.
