Paper Abstract
A cold cathode field emission electron gun (e-gun) based on a patterned carbon nanotube (CNT) film has been fabricated
for use in a miniaturized reflectron time-of-flight mass spectrometer (RTOF MS), with future applications in other
charged particle spectrometers, and performance of the CNT e-gun has been evaluated. A thermionic electron gun has
also been fabricated and evaluated in parallel and its performance is used as a benchmark in the evaluation of our CNT
e-gun. Implications for future improvements and integration into the RTOF MS are discussed.
