Microstructured surface with low work function
Abstract:
A horizontal multilayer junction-edge field emitter includes a plurality of vertically-stacked multilayer structures separated by isolation layers. Each multilayer structure is configured to produce a 2-dimensional electron gas at a junction between two layers within the structure. The emitter also includes an exposed surface intersecting the 2-dimensional electron gas of each of the plurality of vertically-stacked multilayer structures to form a plurality of effectively one-dimensional horizontal line sources of electron emission.
