AbstractCarbon nanotubes are attractive candidates for electron field-emitters due to their high aspect ratio, mechanical stability, and electrical conductivity. It has previously been shown that an electron beam hitting the tip of a carbon nanotube biased near the threshold of field-emission can stimulate the emission of a large number of electrons from the nanotube tip. Here we report on similar experiments on arrays of free-standing multi-walled carbon nanotubes (nanotube forests) interacting with a scanning electron microscope's primary beam. Electron gains of up to 19,000 were obtained. This can enable applications such as electron detection and multiplication, and vacuum transistors.
