The field-emission cathode has potential application in the field emission display panels, high frequency amplifiers, X-ray sources, cathodoluminescent light sources. Many research works have been focused on the improvement of field-emission performance of a carbon nanotube cathode. A few methods, such as adhesive taping, soft rubber rolling, mechanical rubbing, plasma etching, and laser irradiating,...
