Understanding the mechanism of electron emission from ferroelectrics is in deed crucial for the application of ferroelectric cathodes. We appreciated the comments of Dorfman {ital et al.} on our recent article [J. Appl. Phys. {bold 85}, 6055 (1998)]. We believe the original proposed model is consistent and reasonable, i.e., the coexistence of ferroelectric and plasma emission from the same sample. {copyright} {ital 1999 American Institute of Physics.}
