The authors have characterized field emission properties of freestanding, 1 nm thick graphene layers, called carbon nanosheets (CNSs), which were grown perpendicular to the growth surface using a radio-frequency plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition technique. The CNSs are metallic impurity-free and have uniform height distribution (standard deviation of < 10%). The authors have demonstrated reproducibility and stability of the CNSs for a period of > 200 h at 1.3 mA emission current level. Over this time, no degradation has been observed, the variability of the individual I-V curves is small among 7216 voltage cycles, and the standard deviation at the maximum current was no more than 2.3%. A nanosheet-based backgated triode emission device has been developed to take advantage of the nanosheet field emission performance. Prototype devices have confirmed triode operation and stable electron emission. (c) 2006 American Institute of Physics.
