[IEEE 2018 31st International Vacuum Nanoelectronics Conference (IVNC) - Kyoto, Japan (2018.7.9-2018.7.13)] 2018 31st International Vacuum Nanoelectronics Conference (IVNC) - Fluctuations of the emission characteristics of multi-tip field cathodes

摘要： Report presents a complex experimental study of the fluctuations in the emission characteristics of multi-tip field cathodes based on composites "disordered carbon nanotubes in a polymer matrix". The objects of the study: correlation of the glow patterns of the field emission projector with the level of the macroscopic emission current, emission sites activity, distribution of the current load on the emission sites, field enhancement factor of the individual emission sites, dependence of the current-voltage characteristics and effective emission parameters on the voltage and vacuum levels, formation of a calibration grid on the SK-diagram, modeling of the adsorption/desorption processes on the emitter surface.
