Abstract
Here we investigate in situ post-treatment of carbon nanofibers in inductively coupled plasma system for field emission improvements. The nanofibers were characterized using SEM, TEM, energy dispersive spectroscopy, micro-Raman spectroscopy and various FE measurements including typical emission current density-electric field (J-E) curves, large-area uniformity of luminance, and long-time stability of emission currents. Certain structural transformations were observed and significantly enhanced FE was achieved. The mechanism of the structural transformations and the corresponding FE enhancement were also investigated.
