Popis: | The tungsten surface coated with nano fuzz subjected by an electrical field was investigated. To measure the field emission properties of the non-excited tungsten, surface the extremely low current measurement procedure was developed. Point anode was used, with an electrode gap about 0.4 – 0.8 mm. The slow rising of the electrical field in some cases led to avalanche-like emission current amplification that in turn led to the breakdown. The current amplification waveforms suggest that emission structures are formed on the cathode surface. The field-induced emission structures time was in the range of 10-100Ps. The emission pictures on a phosphor screen and emission current waveforms suggest that during avalanche-like emission current rise several emission structures could be formed. |
