ABSTRACT:
A lateral field emission device and method of fabricating the device which maximizes gate control of the cathode emitter electric field strength is disclosed. Gate control increases when the position of the gate edge is optimized with respect to the position of the emitter tip. Maximum control is achieved if the gate extends a distance beyond the emitter in the direction of the anode. Preferably, the displacement of the gate edge from the emitter tip is one half the cathode tip-anode distance for optimum control. The high gain device of the present invention provides improved transconductance.
