摘要: A method of making sub-micron low work function field emission tips without using photolithography. The includes physical vapor deposition randomly located discrete nuclei to form a discontinuous etch mask. In one embodiment an is applied material covered by in the material. another base which are then coated with tips. Diamond preferred
