Abstract
We study the effect of the band structure on the energy distributions of field emitted electrons from AB and ABC graphene multilayers. The characteristic sub-peaks are found to appear for each type of stacking. The experimental discovery of these peaks in field emission experiments from carbon few-layer systems can provide important information about a type of stacking.
