Abstract

We propose a novel smart field electron emission device using silicon nano-wires, and demonstrate field electron emission with a quite low operation voltage from a gated silicon nano-wire. The threshold voltage is about 13V and the value is similar to gated carbon-nanotube field emitter. The emission current reaches 10nA at 15V of gate voltage.
