we have investigated the field emission characteristics of the CNT/TEOS hybrid thin films fabricated by a spray method. It is found that the CNT/TEOS hybrid emitters show high current density, low turn on field, and long-term emission stability compared to the CNT emitters. These efficient field emission characteristics of the CNT/TEOS hybrid emitters are attributed to the TEOS sol, acting as a protection layer of nanotube emitter by surrounding the nanotube tip as well as a binder material to enhance the adhesion of nanotube emitters to the substrate. Therefore, the CNT/TEOS hybrid emitters could be utilized as an alternative for the efficient and reliable field emitters.

Few-walled carbon nanotubes (FWNTs)-based field emitters with long term stability are fabricated by using a spray method. Tetraethylorthosilicate (TEOS) sol as a binder was mixed with dispersed solution of FWNTs to enhance the adhesion of FWNTs on the cathode substrate. Due to the strong intermolecular interaction of TEOS to the functional groups attached on CNTs and substrate, CNTs are tightly adhered to the cathode electrode when heat treatment is performed at $150^{\circ}C$ for 1 hour, resulting in a stable electron emission of CNT emitters for long time. Excellent field emission characteristics were exhibited, with a large field enhancement factor and low turn-on voltage, comparable to those of CNT emitters fabricated by a screen printing of CNT paste. Therefore, FWNTs / TEOS hybrid films could be utilized as an alternative for the efficient and reliable field emitters.

In this paper, Trench emitter electrode IGBT structure is proposed and studied numerically using the device simulator, MEDICI. The breakdown voltage, on-state voltage drop, latch up current density and turn-off time of the proposed structure are compared with those of the conventional trench gate IGBT(TIGBT) structures. Enhancement of the breakdown voltage by 19 % is obtained in the proposed structure due to dispersion of electric field at the edge of the bottom trench gate by trench emitter electrode. In addition, the on-state voltage drop and the latch up current density are improved by 25 %, 16 % respectively. However increase of turn-off time in proposed structures are negligible.

Schottky Emitter (SE)는 미국 FEI의 L. W. Swanson 그룹이 개발하여 상용화시킨 전자원이며, 고분해능 전자현미경용 전자원 시장에서 가장 큰 점유율을 차지하고 있다. 상온에서 작동하는 cold field emitter (CFE)에 비해 휘도(brightness)가 10~100배 정도 낮으나, 10-10 Torr 영역의 초고진공에서도 수시간 미만의 방출전류 안정성을 가진 CFE에 비해 수개월이상 안정된 방출전류를 전자현미경에 제공하므로, 반도체 측정, 검사 등과 같이 고분해능과 안정성이 동시에 요구되는 분야에서는 SE전자원은 필수 요소가 되어있다. 현재 SE 전자원은 일본, 미국, 영국의 4개사가 과점하고 있는 상태이다. SE 전자원이 안정되게 작동하기 위해서는 10~10 Torr 영역의 초고진공 환경이 요구된다. 한국 전자현미경 업체는 국책과제 등을 통해 SE 전자총을 개발해 왔으나, 진공기술과 광학계 설계기술이 부족하여 안정된 SE 전자총의 개발에 성공하지 못하였다. 본 발표에서는 10~10 Torr 영역에서 200 microA 이상의 전류를 안정되게 방출하는 SE 전자총의 전자빔 방출 및 진공특성을 보고한다. 시뮬레이션을 통해 구한 전차총의 전자원 위치 변화, 건렌즈 초점거리, 수차 등의 광학특성을 보여준다. 전자총을 전자현미경 경통에 탑재하고 제어하기 위해서는 전자총뿐만 아니라 전자현미경 전체의 광학특성을 이해할 필요가 있다. 전자총을 현미경에 통합 제어하기 위한 기술과제에 대해서도 간략히 보고한다.

MCFEDs (MOSFET-Contoolled Field Emission Displays) were fabricated to evaluate the validity of MCFEA for display application. The electrical properties of FEAs (Field Emitter Arrays), HVMOSFETs (High-Voltage MOSFETs), and MCFEAs (MOSFET-Controlled Field Emitter Arrays) were measured. The extraction gate voltage of the FEAs to obtain the anode current of 10 nA/tip was around 71 V. The breakdown voltages of the HVMOSFETs were above 81 V for all the samples. The I-V characteristics of the MCFEAs showed that the emission currents of the FEAs were well controlled depending on the control gate voltages of the HVMOSFETs. To avoid the harmful effects during the packaging process, the performance of the MCFEDs was evaluated in a high vacuum chamber. The emission images of the MCFEDs were controlled through very-through operation. From the comparison with a conventional FED, it was proven that the poor uniformity of FED could be improved through the integration with HVMOSFET.

Submicron-sized conical-type tungsten(W) field-emitters based on carbon nanotubes(CNTs) are fabricated with the configuration of CNTs/catalyst(Ni)/buffer(Al/Ni/TiN)/W-tip. This study focuses on elucidating how the Al/Ni/TiN stacked buffer layer affects the structural properties of CNTs and the electron-emission characteristics of CNT-emitters. Field-emission scanning electron microscopy(FESEM), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy(HRTEM), and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS) are used to monitor the nanostructures, surface morphologies, chemical bonds of all the catalysts and CNTs grown. The crystalline structure of CNTs is also characterized by Raman spectroscopy. Furthermore, the measurement of field-emission characteristics for the field-emitters fabricated shows that the emitter using the Al/Ni/TiN stacked buffer reveals the excellent performances.

Active-matrix field emission display (AMFED) based on carbon nanotube (CNT) emitter and amorphous silicon thin-film transistor (a-Si TFT) is reviewed. The AMFED pixels consisted of a high-voltage a-Si TFT and mesh-gated CNT emitters. The developed AMFED panel showed a high performance with a driving voltage of below 15 V. The low-cost and large-area AMFED approach with a metal mesh technology will be discussed.

Low-hydrogenated DLC films were coated on the Mo-tip FEAs by 'layer-by-layer' process based on the plasma-enhanced CVD method. The hydrogen content in the DLC film deposited by the 'layer-by-layer' process was appeared to be remarkably lowered through SIMS analysis. Also, the low-hydrogenated DLC-coated Mo-tip FEA showed good potentiality for FED applications in terms of turn-on voltage, emission current, emission stability and light emitting uniformity.
