Abstract :
Autoemission properties of the materials containing carbon nanotubes are investigated. Unique physical and chemical properties of these materials have allowed obtaining a significant current of emitted electrons at rather low applied electric fields. Automation of process of measurement has revealed the hysteresis-like voltage-current characteristic at sawtooth display of a voltage both for pure carbon nanotubes, and for nanotubes filled by metal particles.
