The use of carbonaceous materials as field-emission cathodes
2001
The advantages and disadvantages of carbon fibers and graphite plates with a developed surface as field-emission cathode materials are discussed. Experimental data for the chemical composition of the materials and the effect of thermal annealing on their structure and emission properties are presented. A correlation between the work function and the amount of cesium implant is studied. The feasibility of preparing planar cold cathodes with a developed surface by means of radiation technologies is considered, and the evolution of the emitting surface during bombardment by low-energy residual gas ions is traced. Cold cathode designs for various applications are recommended.
