Abstract
Electric fields at metal-dielectric contact were calculated analytically and numerically. The obtained field exhibited enhancements strong enough to cause breakdown at a triple junction and more apparently at a quadruple junction. Such field enhancements may lead to a noble type of cold cathode.
