            Abstract : 
A simplified simulation approach has been introduced for gated field emitters. F-N equation fitted with experimental field emission characteristic is used to calculate the characteristics of a double-gated field emitters. By assuming the cathode is a flat thin film, the anode current and gate current are simulated. The validity of the simulation is evaluated by experimental results.
