Stable field emission from hydrothermally grown ZnO nanotubes

Zinc oxide nanotube arrays were prepared by hydrothermal reaction in ammonia and zinc chloride solutions, and the field emission properties were tested. The turn-on field of the field emission was extrapolated to be about 7.0 V/μm at a current density of 0.1 μA/cm2. Meanwhile, the emission current d...
