Three samples with nanocones made of gold and different cone densities were deposited on a circular electrode with a diameter of 2.5 mm, using templates with pore density of 6 × 104, 4 × 105, and 1 × 106 cones/cm2. The cones had a height of 24 μm, a base diameter between 3 and 3.75 μm, and a tip diameter below 500 nm. Integral field emission measurements revealed onset fields of down to 3.1 V/μm and average field enhancement factors of up to 1240. For one sample, the maximum emission current from the cathode reached 142.2 μA at an applied voltage of 338 V between cathode and extraction grid, which had a distance of 50 μm. To investigate the stability of the field emission current, cumulative long-term measurements were performed for over 50 h. A stable emission current of (31.0 ± 1.3) μA at an average applied voltage of 290 V (E = 5.8 V/μm) was observed. For currents above 100 μA, a decrease of the current and therefore a degradation of the emitter structures occurred.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{BiekerRoustaieLangeretal., author = {Bieker, Johannes and Roustaie, Farough and Langer, Christoph and Schreiner, Rupert and Schlaak, Helmut F.}, title = {Innovatives Verfahren zur Herstellung und Integration metallischer Nanokonen f{\"u}r die Feldemission}, series = {MikroSystemTechnik Kongress 2017 : MEMS, Mikroelektronik, Systeme 23.-25.
