Abstract
The emission properties of arrays of field emission cathodes, fabricated using thin film technology and microlithography are reviewed. It is argued that from the standpoint of life, stability, energy distribution, current fluctuation noise, and average current density over the array, these cathodes have demonstrated sufficient promise to justify their trial use in a range of electronic devices. Specific applications and possible problem areas are also discussed.
