  • Abstract
    A new fabrication method of SiC field emitter arrays has been developed. The new method involves the formation of three-dimensional silicon dioxide masks, dry etching, and tip sharpening. The field emitter arrays were successfully fabricated on 4H-SiC substrates with tip diameter less than 10 nm.
