Abstract

We have proposed and designed a vacuum field-emission triode structure with high-resistivity semiconducting or insulating micrometer-size right parallelepipeds deposited in the staggered order on the conducting substrate (cathode), as well as a structure with a nanofilm on the cathode, which is formed by evaporated diamond–graphite clusters. It has been shown theoretically and experimentally that the emissivity of these structures is much higher than that of an uncoated cathode.
