Abstract

A cathode of the invention belongs to the field of vacuum electronics and the materials science, and in particular relates to an MIPM (multum in parvo mapping)-type internal field emitting cathode. The MIPM-type internal field emitting cathode is composed of a bottom electrode layer, an insulating layer, an electronic storage transmission layer and a top electrode layer; the emitting cathode is mainly characterized in that the electronic storage transmission layer adopts a porous silicon film material. In an alternating current AC driving mode, a functional layer not only can transport electrons, but also can store the electrons so as to improve the emitting efficiency. Compared with the prior art, the MIPM-type internal field emitting cathode has the advantages of great emitting current and good stability; and due to the strong environment adaptability, the cathode not only can work in the gas, but also can work in the liquid.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of vacuum electronics and material science, in particular to an MIPM type internal field emission cathode. Background technique [0002] There are three types of field electron emission: one is external field emission, the other is internal field emission, and the third is transverse field emission. [0003] External field emission cathodes are made of metal or semiconductor cones, nanotubes, nanowires, etc. The principle is to use an external strong electric field to suppress the surface barrier, reduce the highest point of the barrier, and narrow the width of the barrier. When the width of the barrier on the surface of the cold cathode is compressed by the electric field to be comparable to the wavelength of electrons, a large number of electrons escape through the surface barrier due to the tunneling effect of electrons. The principle of lateral field emission is to use the conduction current of discontinuous film...
