Field emission properties of metal oxide-incorporated carbon nanotube films on a metal mesh

In this study, CNT emitters are fabricated on a metal mesh by filtrating the aqueous suspensions containing both highly crystalline thin multiwalled CNTs and thick, entangled multiwalled CNTs in sequence. Additionally, we filtrate the cobalt-nickel metal-organic solution and form oxide-nickel oxide layers between CNT networks to improve their adhesion.
