  • Abstract
    Line-type carbon nanotube (CNT) cold cathode is prepared for a fluorescent lamp by growing CNTs on stainless steel rod using thermal chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method. We optimized the cathode by changing the growth temperature, gas mixture and gas flow direction. The optimized cathode improved the performance of the fluorescent lamp.
