Abstract

The invention relates to a field emission cathode structure with a current limiting resistive switching layer and a preparation method thereof, which belong to the technical field of field electron emission. A composite memristor material doped with metal ions is used as a resistive switching layer between each cathode emitter and a substrate in a field emission array cathode, and the resistive switching layer under each cathode emitter controls the migration of metal ions in the resistive switching layer by its own current change. The resistive switching layer is in a low-resistance state during normal emission of the cathode emitter. Under short-circuit or over-current emission, the resistive switching layer is switched to a high-resistance state. The different cathode emitters do not affect one another, and the maximum emission current of a single cathode emitter can be limited to restrain short-circuit or over-current emission. The field emission current limiting structure providedby the invention is simpler than the existing current limiting structure, and has low preparation cost. Because of the existence of the resistive switching layer, the emission stability of the fieldemission cathode is improved without affecting the field emission characteristic, and the field emission cathode structure is of great significance for improving the performance of the existing fieldemission cathode.

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of field electron emission, and in particular relates to a field emission cathode structure with a flow-limiting resistance variable layer and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Field emission cathode has many advantages such as room temperature operation, fast start-up, low power consumption, high emission current density, etc., and it is a research hotspot of cathode electron source at home and abroad. Field emission cathode array (Field emission array, FEA), or Spindt cathode, is the core component of vacuum field emission microelectronic devices. The traditional Spindt cathode field emission cathode structure is a microtip electron gun array processed by micro-nano technology. The array unit is a cathode-grid component, that is, each unit is composed of a metal-tipped emitter grown on the emitter and a gate hole, and an insulating layer is set between the gate and the emitter.
