Microscopic origin of current degradation of fully-sealed carbon-nanotube field emission display
The current-degradation mechanism of a fully sealed, carbon-nanotube field emission display is investigated experimentally and theoretically. From residual gas analysis, it is strongly evidenced that CH3 radicals from the organic materials in the paste deteriorate emission properties. Based on ab initio methods, it is found that CH3 radicals can increase electrical resistance of the nanotube an...
متن کاملA vacuum-sealed miniature X-ray tube based on carbon nanotube field emitters
A vacuum-sealed miniature X-ray tube based on a carbon nanotube field-emission electron source has been demonstrated. The diameter of the X-ray tube is 10 mm; the total length of the tube is 50 mm, and no external vacuum pump is required for the operation. The maximum tube voltage reaches up to 70 kV, and the X-ray tube generates intense X-rays with the air kerma strength of 108 Gy·cm2 min-1. I...
متن کاملCalculating the Field Emission Current from a Carbon Nanotube
The purpose of this work is to present elements of a design tool for field emission displays using carbon nanotubes as emitters. We use a continuum model to describe the carbon nanotubes and we use a locally one-dimensional approximation to calculate the emission current. We investigate the emission current to voltage characteristic, screening effects and the lateral spread of the emission curr...
متن کاملA fully sealed luminescent tube based on carbon nanotube field emission
A fully sealed luminescent tube of 40 cm length and 4 cm diameter based on carbon nanotube field emission is demonstrated. The device shows a homogeneous illumination over the whole length and circumference of the tube and reaches the luminance of conventional fluorescent tubes while being mercury-free, continuously dimmable and with a high illuminance capability. The realization has been made ...
متن کاملAchieving high-current carbon nanotube emitters.
When a carbon nanotube emitter is operated at high currents (typically above 1 microA per emitter), a small voltage drop ( approximately few volts) along its length or at its contact generates a reverse/canceling electric field that causes a saturation-like deviation from the classical Fowler-Nordheim behavior with respect to the applied electric field. We present a correction to the Fowler-Nor...
