Parametrically Optimized Carbon Nanotube-Coated Cold Cathode Spindt Arrays

Here, we investigate, through parametrically optimized macroscale simulations, the field electron emission from arrays of carbon nanotube (CNT)-coated Spindts towards the development of an emerging class of novel vacuum electron devices. The present study builds on empirical data gleaned from our re...
