The Child–Langmuir Law (CL), discovered a century ago, gives the maximum current that
can be transported across a planar diode in the steady state. As a quintessential example of …

Drawn from the author's more than four decades of practical experience in the industry, The
Vacuum Interrupter: Theory, Design, and Application first discusses the design and …

Despite numerous studies on two-dimensional van der Waals heterostructures, a full
understanding of the charge transport and photoinduced current mechanisms in these …

This review is devoted some aspects of the phenomenon of field electron emission per se,
its governing relationships, attainable parameters of the field emission process and its …

A practical, in-depth description of the physics behind electron emission physics and its
usage in science and technology Electron emission is both a fundamental phenomenon and …

A comprehensive study of microwave vacuum electronic devices and their current and future
applications While both vacuum and solid-state electronics continue to evolve and provide …

We report on the field emission properties of single-wall carbon nanotube films, with
emphasis on current–versus–voltage (I–V) characteristics and current stability. The films are …

We report on the extensive characterization of carbon nanotube electron field emitters. We
studied the emission behavior of single-wall, closed and opened arc-discharge multi-wall …

We observe that field emitters made from carbon nanotubes exhibit excellent macroscopic
emission properties; they can operate at a very large current density, as high as 4 A/cm2. At …
