• metallic needle, does not exceed 105 A/cm2 [18]. The total value of the emission current density for a multiemitter cathode (J) may be estimated as where s is the average emitting surface area of the individual emitters, n is the density of the emission sites with the geometrical parameters height h

• silicon post surfaces through lithography and micromachining techniques. Our goal in these experiments was to systematically vary the surface size scale. In order to isolate the effect of this parameter on the wetting properties, other geometrical parameters such as the solid fraction were held constant
