متن کاملField electron emission properties of carbon nanotube films deposited by electrophoresis
The merit of various kinds of carbon nanotubes as field electron emission cathode materials has been studied. The field electron emission characteristics of electrophoretically deposited films of single walled carbon nanotubes, multiwalled carbon nanotubes of diameter between 10 and 20 and .50 nm and carbon nanofibres with diameters between 200 and 600 nm were investigated. Results of the measu...
متن کاملA comparative study of the electronic structures of oxygen- and chlorine- treated nitrogenated carbon nanotubes by x-ray absorption and scanning photoelectron microscopy
The electronic structures and bonding properties of oxygenand chlorine-treated nitrogenated carbon nanotubes N-CNTs were studied using x-ray absorption near-edge structure XANES and scanning photoelectron microscopy. Features in the C K-edge XANES spectra are shifted by 0.3 eV toward higher energies and by 1.1 eV toward lower energies relatively to those of the more symmetrical pyridinelike and...
متن کاملOrigin of electric field enhancement in field emission from amorphous carbon thin films
The observation of electron emission from amorphous carbon thin films at low applied electric fields is explained in terms of an enhancement of the field brought about by dielectric inhomogeneities within the film. These inhomogeneities originate from the differences between conductive, spatially localized sp C clusters surrounded by a more insulating sp matrix. By a more complete understanding...
متن کاملField emission of individual carbon nanotubes in the scanning electron microscope.
The field emission of individual multiwall carbon nanotubes grown by chemical vapor deposition was measured in a scanning electron microscope. By using a sharp anode, we were able to select one nanotube for measurements in carefully controlled conditions. Single nanotubes follow the Fowler-Nordheim law, and the dependence of the field enhancement with interelectrode distance and nanotube radius...
