Nanostructured ultrafast silicon-tip optical field-emitter arrays.
Femtosecond ultrabright electron sources with spatially structured emission are an enabling technology for free-electron lasers, compact coherent X-ray sources, electron diffractive imaging, and attosecond science. In this work, we report the design, modeling, fabrication, and experimental characterization of a novel ultrafast optical field emission cathode comprised of a large (>100,000 tips),...
متن کاملHighly scaled silicon field emitter arrays with integrated silicon nanowire current limiters
Field emitter arrays (FEAs) are a promising class of cold electron sources with applications in RF amplifiers, terahertz sources, lithography, imaging, and displays. FEAs are yet to achieve widely implemented because of serious challenges which have limited their viability in systems that require advanced electron sources. We identified four major challenges that posed significant barriers to t...
متن کاملEffect of gases on the field emission properties of ultrananocrystalline diamond-coated silicon field emitter arrays
We performed studies of electron emission from ultrananocrystalline diamond ~UNCD!-coated, ungated silicon field emitters as a function of in situ exposure to various gases during current versus voltage and current versus time measurements. The emitter arrays were fabricated by a subtractive tip fabrication process and coated with UNCD films using microwave plasma chemical vapor deposition with...
متن کاملMicrofabricated electrospray emitter arrays with integrated extractor and accelerator electrodes for the propulsion of small spacecraft
Microfabricated electrospray thrusters could revolutionize the spacecraft industry by providing efficient propulsion capabilities to micro and nano satellites (1–100 kg). We present the modeling, design, fabrication and characterization of a new generation of devices, for the first time integrating in the fabrication process individual accelerator electrodes capable of focusing and accelerating...
متن کاملSelf-aligned nanoscale SQUID on a tip.
A nanometer-sized superconducting quantum interference device (nanoSQUID) is fabricated on the apex of a sharp quartz tip and integrated into a scanning SQUID microscope. A simple self-aligned fabrication method results in nanoSQUIDs with diameters down to 100 nm with no lithographic processing. An aluminum nanoSQUID with an effective area of 0.034 microm2 displays flux sensitivity of 1.8 x 10(...
