Structure and Field-Emission Properties of Sub-Micrometer-Sized Tungsten-Whisker Arrays Fabricated by Vapor Deposition

resumo

Sub-micrometer-sized tungsten-whisker arrays are synthesized by a catalyst- and template-free vapor-deposition process. The resultant whiskers have a hexagonal cross-section, sharp pyramidal tip, and large aspect ratio. The excellent field-emission properties of the whisker arrays, which can be tuned varying the diameters of the synthesized whiskers, are demonstrated.
