This review of the quantitative electrostatics of field emitters, covering analytical, numerical
and'fitted formula'approaches, is thought the first of its kind in the 100 years of the subject …

Inspired by methods of wet fiber spinning, we introduce a process using a 3D printer to
create dense carbon nanotube (CNT) fibers and extensible coils with metal-like DC specific …

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) are attracting widespread interest as electron emitters due to
their superior field emission properties. However, the correlation between the microstructural …

We use computer simulations to investigate the effects of the tip diameter of an electrostatic
force microscope (EFM) operating at a constant force on the extraction of the growth …

The field electron emission properties of carbon nanotube (CNT) films composed of densely
packed and highly aligned CNTs were investigated. The CNT films were produced by a …

One of the critical aspects in advancing high-brightness field emitter devices is determining
the conditions under which single-tip emitters should be constructed to optimize their …

When solving the Laplace equation numerically via computer simulation, in order to
determine the field values at the surface of a shape model that represents a field emitter, it is …

We introduce a new method for fabricating fiber-like field emitters using pointwise deposition
of aqueous suspensions of carbon nanotubes (CNTs). Liquid ink is held between a flat base …

Electrostatic depolarization in clusters of emitters regularly spaced and with uniform height
causes the emission to concentrate on the outer corners, suppressing the relative emission …

Experiments on field electron emission (FE) of single carbon nanotubes (CNTs) indicate that
they exhibit a nearly linear Fowler–Nordheim plot, and the field enhancement factor (FEF) …
