摘要：

A simple fabrication method is described to produce reliable and robust (self-repairing) field emission sources from randomly aligned carbon nanotubes. The sources display stable and reproducible current-voltage characteristics with sharp turn on near 100 V and emission currents up to 400 mA/cm(2) at 200 V. Two successful methods are described for patterning the emission source area into emitting and nonemitting regions. (C) 1996 American Institute of Physics.
