Energy Transport and Conversion in Electron Emission Processes
Single-walled and multi-walled CNT arrays have been intercalated with potassium to reduce their work functions to 2-3 eV, and the energy distributions of emitted electrons are measured with a hemispherical energy analyzer. Results show that emitters prepared in this way are highly sensitive to light in the dominant solar wavelengths. The effective work function of both single-walled and multi-walled carbon nanotubes intercalated with potassium (K/SWCNT and K/MWCNT, respectively) is temperature-dependent and has a minimum of approximately 2 eV in the neighborhood of 300AdC for K/SWCNTs while the minimum for K/MWCNTs is approximately 2.4 eV in the neighborhood of 500AdC. Results from control samples without CNTs are also presented and display substantially inferior emission.82 5.6: Total thermistor heating as a function of emission current for the MWNT array featured in Fig. 8.
