Abstract:Indium-tin-oxide substrate-supported chemically synthesized bismuth sulfide upright-standing platelets of micron-size height and nanometer-size width are explored for the field emission. Bismuth sulfide upright-standing platelets electrode shows a turn-on field of 2.83 V/μm at a current density of 10 μA/cm2, a maximum emissive current of 49 μA/cm2 (3.5V/μm), and 9396 beta-factor comparable to the field emission studies of carbon nanotubes, when used as a cathode for emitting current under applied voltage.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
