摘要
There is a growing interest in the fabrication of nanometer scale silicon tips for use as field emitters for that panel displays. Advantages include brightness, efficiency and spatial resolution. Additionally, field emission devices offer an alternative technology for high speed, radiation-resistant microcircuits operating over wide temperature ranges. This paper reports on a new fabrication route for producing arrays of silicon nanotips with precise control of tip size and geometry without any oxidation sharpening step.
