Abstract

Field emitters are used as distributed electron sources in applications such as field emission displays (FEDs). This study analyzes the deflection and focusing properties of a novel dual-gate edge emitter. The structure considered has the edge of a thin metal layer as emitter and a deflection and focusing electrode lying in the same plane. Linear and circular emitter configurations are comparatively analyzed, the simulation work being performed with the Simion 6.0 software package. The analysis concerns electron-beam pattern, dimensions and incidence angle on the anode plane.
