热场致发射阴极所产生的强流电子束具有很强的空间电荷效应，为研究该效应对热场致发射过程中诺廷汉（Nottingham）效应的影响机理，在理论分析的基础上，用数值方法研究了不同逸出功和多个外加电场条件下考虑空间电荷效应对诺廷汉效应结果的影响，并与不考虑空间电荷效应时的情形进行了对比. 结果表明：空间电荷效应的强弱会显著影响到阴极表面的稳态电场，进而对诺廷汉效应产生不可忽略的影响；当逸出功在3.0–4.52 eV、外加电场在3×109–9×109 V/m范围内时，考虑空间电荷效应的影响后，热场致发射电子所带走的平均能量较不考虑空间电荷效应时增加0–2.5 eV，且温度越高或外加电场越大时，该增加值越大；考虑空间电荷效应对诺廷汉效应的影响后，热场致发射电子从阴极带走的平均能量随外加电场的增加呈非线性下降规律；当阴极表面温度较高时，诺廷汉效应中的冷却效应随二极管间隙距离的变大而增强.High current electron beam emitting from a thermal field emission cathode has an intense space charge effect. In order to investigate the mechanism for the influence of space charge effect on Nottingham effect in thermal field emission, the results of Nottingham effect with and without space charge effect at different work functions and various applied electric fields are obtained numerically on the basis of the theoretical analyses of space charge effect and Nottingham effect. The results demonstrate that the space charge effect has a significant influence on the steady electric field at the cathode surface, and thus the effect of space charge on Nottingham effect is not ignorable. When the work function is in a range of 3.0–4.52 eV and the applied electric field is in a scope of 3×109–9×109 V/m, the average energy delivered per electron in thermal field emission is in a span of 0–2.5 eV larger than that in the case without space charge effect, and the higher the cathode temperature or applied electric field, the larger the difference between them is. The average energy delivered by per electron emitting from cathode is observed to nonlinearly decrease with the increasing of applied electric field when the space charge effect is included. When the cathode temperature is high, the cooling effect in Nottingham effect can be intensified as the gap distance of diode increases.
