Review on development of carbon nanotube field emission cathode for space propulsion systems

In recent years, small-size, low-weight aerospace propulsion systems have developed rapidly for space exploration, on-orbit scientific instruments and extra space missions, while additional electron emission devices are commonly required in those propulsion systems. Carbon nanotube (CNT) based field...
