Investigation of electron emission from nano-structures


EMSL Project ID
17494

Abstract

Field emission from metal nanotips will be investigated. Nanotips of different material and structures will be fabricated. The electron emission characteristics of different nanotips under AC and DC fields, with and without plasma will be studied. The work function of different material and the relationship between work function and electron emission will also be studied.
