Spindt Cathodes and Other Field Emitter Arrays

Based on the introduction of semiconductor technologies, the application of thin-film and micromachining techniques to fabricate integrated vacuum field emission devices in the submicron size range became feasible in the 1960s. These were pioneered at SRI

Topics in Applied Physics is a well-established series of review books, each of which presents a comprehensive survey of a selected topic within the domain of applied physics. Since 1973 it has served a broad readership across academia and industry, providing both newcomers and seasoned scholars easy but comprehensive access to the state of the art of a number of diverse research topics. Edited and written by leading international scientists, each volume contains high-quality review contributions, extending from an introduction to the subject right up to the frontiers of contemporary research. Topics in Applied Physics strives to provide its readership with a diverse and interdisciplinary collection of some of the most current topics across the full spectrum of applied physics research, including but not limited to: • • • • • • • • • • •

Quantum computation and information Photonics, optoelectronics and device physics Nanoscale science and technology Ultrafast physics Microscopy and advanced imaging Biomaterials and biophysics Liquids and soft matter Materials for energy Geophysics Computational physics and numerical methods Interdisciplinary physics and engineering

We welcome any suggestions for topics coming from the community of applied physicists, no matter what the field, and encourage prospective book editors to approach us with ideas. Potential authors who wish to submit a book proposal should contact Zach Evenson, Publishing Editor: [email protected] Topics in Applied Physics is indexed by SCOPUS and books in this series are submitted for indexing to Web of Science. 2018 Impact Factor: 0.746
