    Abstract: An ion source using a field emission device is provided. The field emission device includes an insulative substrate, an electron pulling electrode, a secondary electron emission layer, a first dielectric layer, a cathode electrode, and an electron emission layer. The electron pulling electrode is located on a surface of the insulative substrate. The secondary electron emission layer is located on a surface of the electron pulling electrode. The cathode electrode is located apart from the electron pulling electrode by the first dielectric layer. The cathode electrode has a surface oriented to the electron pulling electrode and defines a first opening as an electron output portion. The electron emission layer is located on the surface of the cathode electrode and oriented to the electron pulling electrode.

    Abstract: A method for manufacturing a cathode tip of electric field emission device includes depositing conductive layer and undoped silicon layer on the insulator substrate sequentially; forming a tip-mask pattern on the selected area of top of said undoped silicon film and etching said undoped silicon film isotropically and then anisotropically in turn, so that the silicon film is formed as cone-like having cylinder; and removing the tip-mask pattern, implanting ion into the etched silicon layer and removing the ion implanted silicon layer using the wet etch process.

    Abstract: An electron source is formed on a silicon substrate having opposing first and second surfaces. At least one field emitter is prepared on the second surface of the silicon substrate to enhance the emission of electrons. To prevent oxidation of the silicon, a thin, contiguous boron layer is disposed directly on the output surface of the field emitter using a process that minimizes oxidation and defects. The field emitter can take various shapes such as pyramids and rounded whiskers. One or several optional gate layers may be placed at or slightly lower than the height of the field emitter tip in order to achieve fast and accurate control of the emission current and high emission currents. The field emitter can be p-type doped and configured to operate in a reverse bias mode or the field emitter can be n-type doped.
