Tóm tắt

This paper proposes a novel structure of the conical Si field emitters monolithically incorporating a vertical-type junction field effect transistor (JFET) and demonstrates the emission control in field emission from the emitters. The proposal has many attractive advantages in the display application and reliable fabrication, because the structure needs neither additional area for the JFET nor additional process except ion implantation. The experimental results of the emitters show excellent controllability and stability in the emission current.
