Abstract

The invention relates to a carbon nanotube field emission cathode and a preparation method thereof. The carbon nanotube field emission cathode includes a conductive substrate and a graphene layer and a carbon nanotube layer stacked on the conductive substrate in sequence. The theoretical specific surface area of ​​graphene is as high as 2600m 2 / g, its unique two-dimensional structure can carry out effective electrothermal transmission, and has better thermal and electrical properties than carbon nanotubes. A graphene layer is set between the conductive substrate and the carbon nanotube layer to give full play to the specific surface area of ​​graphene. The characteristics of huge size and excellent conduction and heat dissipation can improve the adhesion of the carbon nanotube layer, improve the emission current and stability.
