We fabricated high performance cold cathode electron beam with carbon nanotube (CNT) emitters. High performance cold cathode electron emitters show more than 150 mA electron emission current and long-time operational stability. Stability of operation further enhanced with thermal annealing and electrical aging. With the CNT cold cathode, we fabricated electron beam with triode structure and shows more than 15 mA anode current within less than 1 cm2 area.
