  • Abstract
    In this paper, the ultra-high efficiency (38%) field electron emission was demonstrated from the defect-control polyimide tunnel cathode using the dc-voltage forming method. It was found that the ion irradiation condition of the polyimide film and the dc-forming condition are important to obtain ultra-high electron emission efficiency from the cathode.
