ABSTRACTThe electron emission properties of a Spindt-type field emitter array have been measured before and after deposition of approximately 100 Å of gold. The workfunction of the emitter decreased by 5% after gold deposition resulting in an 11% reduction in turn-on voltage. Emission stability as measured by RMS current noise improved by 40%. Improvements in emission do not withstand exposure to air. However, baking at moderate temperatures (200°C) restores the emission improvements obtained with the gold overcoating. Fowler-Nordheim plots show that the enhanced emission after baking is due to a increase of the Fowler-Nordheim intercept and not a decrease in slope. Additionally, the gold over coatings resist poisoning as a 50,000 L dose of oxygen only slightly affects emission.

Low work function amorphous carbon Transfer Mold field emitter arrays (a-C-FEAs) have been fabricated by combining the Transfer Mold emitter fabrication method and the emitter material coating method to realize stable vacuum nanoelectronic devices in harsh environments of aerospace. The emitter tips of a-C-FEAs are extremely sharpened to 26.7-30.7 nm of tip radii. Work function of a-C-FEAs was as low as 3.6 eV compared with those of conventional emitter materials such as carbon nanotube of 5.0 eV. Oxygen radical flux intensity of 1015 atoms/cm2•sec was used for the evaluation of field emission characteristics, whose value is 107-108 times higher than those of 107-108 atoms/cm2•sec in aerospace of satellite orbits. As the oxygen radical treatment time increased, turn-on fields of Ni-FEAs exhibited the 2.2 times degradation from 14.9 V/µm to 32.7 V/µm. Those of a-C-FEAs have been keeping almost the same value of 20.8-23.7 V/µm after oxygen radical treatment. The a-C-FEAs exhibit stable field emission characteristics in harsh environments.
