Book The Formation and Characteristics of a Broad area Semiconductor Field Emission Cathode

Download or read book The Formation and Characteristics of a Broad area Semiconductor Field Emission Cathode written by John W. Hanson and published by . This book was released on 1969 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The work is a study of the formation, operation and application of a semiconductor field emission cathode consisting of one or more individual emitting points on a broad area cathode. The material primarily used was germanium. Two methods of forming these cathodes were studied; a vacuum breakdown method and one using radiation from a pulsed ruby laser focused on the cathode surface. The former is the method by which the cathode was first revealed. The latter holds the most promise for making cathodes practical. Both types of cathodes were observed with a scanning electron microscope to aid in understanding the mechanism by which the very regular emitting points are formed. The electrical characteristics of the cathode were studied experimentally and found to agree with theory of semiconductor field emission. A retarding potential analyzer was designed and built to measure the energy distribution for electrons emitted from individual points on the cathode. An electron optical system was used to study the operation of the semiconductor cathode as an electron source for such applications as in a cathode ray tube or similar device requiring a low-current electron beam.

Book A Field Emission Display Using Carbon Nanotubes as Emitters

Download or read book A Field Emission Display Using Carbon Nanotubes as Emitters written by Feng-Yu Chuang and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 7 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A fully sealed field emission display (FED), indicator, using carbon nanotubes (CNTs) as emitters is examined. The CNTs chunk, synthesized by arc discharge, were crashed, mixed with conductive pastes and then screen-printed on glass for the cold cathode. And the anode plate, an ITO glass printed PI5 phosphor was separated from cathode using 9O micrometers spacers. The indicator display performed a turn-on voltage as low as 250 V, and the emission current density 2.2 mA/cm(2) under 300 V with brightness of 500 nits. The pixels, driven by open drain IC with 5 V gate voltage, showed the clock image which indicated the application of CNTs-FED. No significant degradation of this performance was observed during 1000 mins testing. The influence of printing condition and surface treatment process on the emission characteristics will also be discussed in this letter.

Book Nanostructured Carbon Electron Emitters and Their Applications

Download or read book Nanostructured Carbon Electron Emitters and Their Applications written by Yahachi Saito and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2022-01-27 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Carbon forms a variety of allotropes due to the diverse hybridization of s- and p-electron orbitals, including the time-honored graphite and diamond as well as new forms such as C60 fullerene, nanotubes, graphene, and carbyne. The new family of carbon isotopes—fullerene, nanotubes, graphene, and carbyne—is called “nanostructured carbon” or “nanocarbon.” These isotopes exhibit extreme properties such as ultrahigh mechanical strength, ultrahigh charge–carrier mobility, and high thermal conductivity, attracting considerable attention for their electronic and mechanical applications as well as for exploring new physics and chemistry in the field of basic materials science. Electron sources are important in a wide range of areas, from basic physics and scientific instruments to medical and industrial applications. Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and graphene behave as excellent electron-field emitters owing to their exceptional properties and offer several benefits compared to traditional cathodes. Field emission (FE) produces very intense electron currents from a small surface area with a narrow energy spread, providing a highly coherent electron beam—a combination that not only provides us with the brightest electron sources but also explores a new field of electron beam–related research. This book presents the enthusiastic research and development of CNT-based FE devices and focuses on the fundamental aspects of FE from nanocarbon materials, including CNTs and graphene, and the latest research findings related to it. It discusses applications of FE to X-ray and UV generation and reviews electron sources in vacuum electronic devices and space thrusters. Finally, it reports on the new forms of carbon produced via FE from CNT.

Book excerpt: In recent years the Japanese have funded a comprehensive study of carbon materials which incorporate other elements including boron, nitrogen and fluorine, hence the title of the project "Carbon Alloys".Coined in 1992, the phrase "Carbon Alloys" can be applied to those materials mainly composed of carbon materials in multi-component systems. The carbon atoms of each component have a physical and/or chemical interactive relationship with other atoms or compounds. The carbon atoms of the components may have different hybrid bonding orbitals to create quite different carbon components.Eiichi Yasuda and his team consider the definition of Carbon Alloys, present the results of the Carbon Alloys projects, describe typical Carbon Alloys and their uses, discuss recent techniques for their characterization, and finally, illustrate potential applications and future developments for Carbon Alloy science. The book contains over thirty chapters on these studies from as many researchers.The most modern of techniques, particularly in the area of spectroscopy, were used as diagnostic tools, and many of these are applicable to pure carbons also. Porosity in carbons received considerable attention.

Book Applied Research on Field Emission Cathodes

Download or read book Applied Research on Field Emission Cathodes written by E. E. Martin and published by . This book was released on 1963 with total page 25 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Effort was directed toward the study of field emission cathodes and their development to a practical electron source. Primary emphasis was on relatively gross structures for use at high power levels. Emission currents to 22 amperes at 390 kilovolts were obtained from single, needle-shaped, tungsten emitters and to 105 amperes at 203 kilovolts from an edge-shaped, tungsten structure. Point cathodes were shown to emit maximum currents in agreement with theoretical prediction based on energy exchange at the cathode and on cathode dimensions. Electrolytic and chemical techniques were developed for fabrication of edge cathodes which were free of cold work and had terminal radii of the order of 0.00001 cm. Electron optical systems appropriate for use with field emitted beams were studied; and basic knowledge of the behavior of adsorbates which improve beam utility by selective emission enhancement in the forward direction was extended.
