A vacuum microelectronic device (10,40) emits electrons (37) from surfaces of nanotube emitters (17, 18). Extracting electrons from the surface of each nanotube emitter (17) results is a small voltage variation between each emitter utilized in the device (10, 40). Consequently, the vacuum microelectronic device (10,40) has a more controllable turn-on voltage and a consistent current density from each nanotube emitter (17,18).
