Abstracte InGaN-based blue light-emitting diodes (LEDs), with their high efficiency and
brightness, are entering the display industry. However, a significant gap remains between …

Field emission (FE) is based on the physical phenomenon of quantum tunneling, in which
electrons are injected from the surface of materials into vacuum under the influence of an …

Well-aligned arrays of ZnO nanoneedles were fabricated using a simple vapor phase
growth. The diameters of the nanoneedle tips are as small as several nanometers, which is …

In this review we give an overview of the present status of research on carbon nanotube
(CNT) field emitters and their applications. Several different construction principles of field …

Carbon nanotubes and nanofibers are graphitic filaments/whiskers with diameters ranging
from 0.4 to 500 nm and lengths in the range of several micrometers to millimeters. Carbon …

Written by today's best researchers of semiconductor nanostructures, this cutting-edge
resource provides a snapshot of this exciting and fast-changing field. The book covers the …

When a carbon nanotube emitter is operated at high currents (typically above 1 μA per
emitter), a small voltage drop (∼ few volts) along its length or at its contact generates a …

The nonlinear free vibration of double-walled carbon nanotubes based on the nonlocal
elasticity theory is studied in this paper. The nonlinear equations of motion of the double …
