Abstract :
In this study, the effects of electrical aging on emission stability of screen-printed carbon nanotube(CNT) emitter is investigated. Results show that stable and uniform emission currents from CNT emitter are obtained during the multiple field emission cycling. During the initial stage of electrical aging, an emission current fluctuation is observed and is gradually reduced and electron emission stabilized as time passes.
