Abstract
We report on the fabrication and field emission of carbon nanotube field emitters for mass spectrometer. Due to its high aspect ratio and mechanical strength, we use vertically aligned multi-wall carbon nanotubes prepared by thermal chemical vapour deposition as cathodes, Electrons emitted from a CNT are to ionize some sample molecules. We have successfully attained patterned carbon nanotubes grown on two-dimensional 0.7 mm by 0.7 mm Ni square blocks on Si. The emission characteristics show that the field emission initiates at 200 V.
