A method for synthesis of CNTs at low temperature using thermal CVD is proposed. A multi-layered catalyst, Co/Ti/Al, has been successfully utilized to synthesize carbon nanotubes at 500 square by thermal CVD via modifying the flow rate of reaction gases. The flow rates of ethylene, hydrogen, and nitrogen are determined to he 125, 10, and 1000 sccm to improve the growth and field emission characteristics of CNTs at low temperature. Moreover, a novel self-focusing gated device was proposed to resolve the problem of electron beam divergence.

Field-emission devices with a novel self-focusing gate structure using carbon nanotubes as emitters have been fabricated. Without additional focusing electrodes, the self-focusing gate structure employed a pair of gate electrodes parallel with the vicinity of emitters, which resulted in an asymmetric emission area as compared with the conventional gate structure. Therefore, electrons emitted from the emitters gave rise to an overlapping region on the anode plate so that a reduction of spot size had been achieved. According to the simulation results and luminescent images, this self-focusing gate structure had good control of the trajectory of electrons and therefore showed a smaller luminescent spot size than the conventional one. This gate structure, which utilizes a simple fabrication process, has the advantages of low-cost manufacturing and large-area scalability, and therefore is promising for application in field emission displays.

In this report, the pillar-shaped carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have been achieved by utilizing an Fe-Ti codeposited layer as catalyst in thermal chemical vapor deposition system (T-CVD). By adjusting the ratio of distance between neighboring pillars (R) to the pillar height (H) as 2.5, the field emission characteristics can be effectively improved by reducing the screening effect. The turn-on field was remarkably decreased to 0.95 V/um with a very high current of 4.98mA for a device with area of 0.02cm(2). The coefficient of variation (CV) of the emission current was as low as 20.59% at 800V for 3600sec.

CNTs was synthesized using multilayered catalytic films as catalysts at temperatures lower than softening point of soda-lime glass by thermal CVD. It is found that herd good field emission properties and morphologies. The field emission current density of CNTs could reach 29 mA/cm(2) at the electric field of 6 V/um.
