The three-dimensional hierarchical SrS/Bi2S3 heterostructures were synthesized by a template-free single-step hydrothermal method. The structural and morphological studies revealed the formation of a single crystalline orthorhombic heterostructure with rod-like morphologies possessing a high aspect ratio. The field emission properties of SrS/Bi2S3 nanorods were investigated. J–E and the Fowler–Nordheim (F–N) plot, as well as long-term field emission (FE) stability, were studied. SrS/Bi2S3 nanoflowers have enhanced the FE properties more than the virgin Bi2S3. The observed values of the re-producible turn-on field for SrS/Bi2S3 defined to draw an emission current density of ca. 1 µA/cm2 were found to be ca. 2.50 V/µm, and of the threshold field to draw a current density of ca. 10 µA/cm2 were found to be ca. 3.00 V/µm (without visible light illumination). A maximum emission current density of ca. 527 μA/cm2 was drawn without light and a current density of ca. 1078 μA/cm2 with light, which is higher than that of pristine Bi2S3.

ABSTRATECarbon nanotubes (CNTs) were grown by electroless Ni-P plated on silicon substrate in a microwave heating chemical vapor deposition (CVD) system with methane gas at 700 °C. The CNTs grown on Ni–P catalyst showed random orientation and small diameter around 15–30 nm. Field emission test results indicated that the Ni–P catalyzed-CNTs exhibited excellent field emission properties. The turn-on field was about 0.56 V/μm with an emission current density 10 μA/cm2 and the threshold field was 4.4 V/μm with an emission current density 10 mA/cm2. These excellent field emission properties may be attributed to the random orientation and small diameter of CNTs.

In the present work, ZnO nanostructures with tunable size were successfully synthesized on non-seeded Cu substrates by a simple electrodeposition method. The effects of growth conditions on the morphology of the products were studied in detail by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The as-prepared products exhibited flake-like morphology when the concentration of ZnCl2 was higher enough, while the products showed flower-like morphology when the concentration was lower enough. Field emission investigation indicated that the nanoflowers exhibited good emission properties. The ZnO nanoflowers show potential application as field emitters.

Thin diamond microplates have been grown on dome-like/hemispherical carbon particles on titanium carbide by a microwave plasma chemical vapour deposition (MPCVD) method using a gas mixture of methane and hydrogen. The diamond microplates have a thickness of about 200 nm. A thin (300 nm) film of titanium carbide was formed during carburization of sputtered titanium on an Si(100) substrate in MPCVD. The hemispherical carbon particles were covered with diamond microplates. The diamond microplates are isolated electron-emitting spherules and exhibit a low threshold (50 V µm−1) and high current density (0.92 mA cm−2) in their field emission properties. A possible mechanism for the formation of the diamond microplates and hemispherical carbon particles is presented.

Aligned single-walled carbon nanotube (SWNT) ropes show excellent field-emission performance due to their high aspect ratio and sound alignment. In this study, the effect of geometrical parameters, such as cathode-anode distance and the height of SWNT ropes on the field-emission properties of SWNT ropes was investigated. It was found that the cathode-anode distance influences the emission properties, such as the turn-on field Fto and threshold field Fthr, of SWNT ropes, and the turn-on and threshold fields are marginally decreased at relatively larger gaps between the SWNT emitter tip and the anode plane. It was also found that the emission properties of SWNT ropes are improved by increasing the rope length, at least in the present experimental range. A possible two-step field amplification model was proposed to explain this length effect of SWNT ropes. The estimated results show that the local field at the tip of SWNT ropes, which causes a certain emission-current density, seems not to change with the cathode-anode distance, and the effective emission area of the SWNT rope is much smaller than the apparent cross-sectional area of the SWNT rope. The results obtained suggest that it is possible to optimize the performance of SWNT rope-based cold cathode by adjusting geometrical parameters of SWNT rope emitters.
