Surface modification of CNT-cathodes by an acid-erosion process
Source abstract
Abstract
We describe the preparation and properties of a carbon nanotube (CNT) paste for screen-printing CNT-cathodes. Inorganic binders have been added to the paste to improve the adhesion to the substrate and Zn powder has been added to reduce the loss of CNTs during thermal processing. An efficient method called the acid-erosion process has been introduced to improve the surface morphology of the CNT-cathodes made with the paste. The surface modification was verified with electron microscopic analyses, while the improvements in field emission and emission uniformity were quantified in a diode structure.
