Abstract
Horizontally aligned carbon nanotube (CNT) field emitters, which strongly adhere to the substrate and show good field emission properties, were fabricated by electrophoresis deposition and fissure formation techniques. A thin film of CNTs was deposited on a substrate, by electrophoresis, from an aqueous mixture of CNT and detergent, and then the detergent was deposited also by electropholysis. CNTs with a clean surface were exposed in the fissures produced by firing. The field emission was increased significantly due to the additional deposition of the detergent. When the CNTs were cut by increasing the firing time, the field emission increased significantly, while their stability decreased considerably. Our method does not require any further treatment for field emission.
