摘要 |
A cold cathode device is provided comprising a wide-bandgap (>5 eV) material exhibiting negative electron affinities, low trap densities, and high carrier mobilities, a junction between a first region of the wide-bandgap material having n-type conductivity and a second region of the wide-bandgap material having p-type conductivity, and a conductive contact to forward bias the junction causing electrons to be emitted near the junction into an exterior region.
