Field emission characteristics of carbon nanotube emitters synthesized by arc discharge

Abstract: Field emission properties of plasma treated multiwalled carbon nanotube cathode layersThe fabrication of carbon nanotube emitters with excellent emission properties is described. The nanotubes synthesized by arc discharge are used as electron emitters. The fibrous bundles containing nanotubes were crushed, mixed with conductive pastes, and slurries and then screen printed. The scanning electron microscopy images showed that the nanotubes were disordered and the average diameter was about several tens of nanome… Show more

“…The relatively large D-band peak is observed at 1331 cm −1 , which is attributed to the carbonaceous particles, the defects in curved graphite sheet and tube surface. This is consistent with the report by Kwo, and not much different from multiwall CNT films [16]. The appearance of a D′ component (1612.9 cm −1 ) possibly resembles the slightly disordered and highly oriented pyrolitic graphite feature [17].…”

“…These are advantages over tungsten and molybdenum tip arrays, which require a vacuum of 10 Ϫ10 torr and are more difficult to fabricate (55). Nanotubes provide stable emission, long lifetimes, and low emission threshold potentials (47,50).…”

“…Nanotube field-emitting surfaces are comparatively easy to manufacture by screen printing nanotube pastes and do not distort in moderate vacuum (108 Torr). These are benefits over tungsten and molybdenum tip arrays, which require high vacuum of 1010 torr and are tougher to fabricate [36].…”
