Abstract :
In this study, field electron emission current uniformity and stability of the well-aligned carbon nanotubes (CNTs) synthesized in methanol has been investigated by using the scanning probe field emission current (SPFEC) measurement system. The effect of crystallinity of the well-aligned CNT is also discussed.
