The electron field emission from carbon nanotubes on nanocrystalline diamond films was investigated. Carbon nanotubes and nano-diamond films were deposited on Si substrates by hot filament chemical vapor deposition. The experimental results showed that the carbon nanotubes on nanostructured films exhibited a lower value of the turn-on electric field than those of carbon nanotubes and nano-diamond. It was found that the turn-on field of nanotubes on nano-diamond was about 0.9V/μm, which was lower than those of carbon nanotubes and nano-diamond.

AbstractCarbon nanotubes are attractive candidates for electron field-emitters due to their high aspect ratio, mechanical stability, and electrical conductivity. It has previously been shown that an electron beam hitting the tip of a carbon nanotube biased near the threshold of field-emission can stimulate the emission of a large number of electrons from the nanotube tip. Here we report on similar experiments on arrays of free-standing multi-walled carbon nanotubes (nanotube forests) interacting with a scanning electron microscope's primary beam. Electron gains of up to 19,000 were obtained. This can enable applications such as electron detection and multiplication, and vacuum transistors.
