Field enhanced thermionic emission from oxide coated carbon nanotubes
A cathode structure was demonstrated that utilizes aligned carbon nanotubes (CNTs) to improve the thermionic electron emission by increasing the field enhancement of the cathode surface. Aligned CNTs were grown on the surface of a tungsten substrate by plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition. The...
