The energy difference between the two peaks in the TED is found to be nearly equal to the band gap of the bulk ZnO. The results show that field emitted electrons originate from both the conduction and valence bands. The peak position dependence on the applied voltage has also been observed. In the present case, the size of the ZnO tetrapod is not small enough to reflect the quantum confinement effects.</p>1 aAl-Tabbakh, Ahmed, A.1 aMore, Mahendra, A.1 aJoag, Dilip, S.1 aRamgir, Niranjan, S.1 aMulla, Imtiaz, S.1 aPillai, Vijayamohanan, K.  uhttps://library.ncl.res.in/content/energy-analysis-field-emitted-electrons-zno-tetrapod01602nas a2200253   4500008004100000022001400041245010500055210006900160260007100229300001400300490000600314520069700320653001901017653002501036653001901061653001701080653000801097100002601105700002301131700002001154700002201174700003001196856012201226       2010                        eng d  a1936-085100aFowler-nordheim plot behavior and mechanism of field electron emission from ZnO tetrapod structures	0 aFowlernordheim plot behavior and mechanism of field electron emi  a1155 16TH ST, NW, WASHINGTON, DC 20036 USAbAMER CHEMICAL SOCcOCT  a5585-55900 v43 a<p>Field emission measurements of current-voltage characteristics are reported for tetrapod structures of ZnO. The nonlinear Fowler-Nordheim (FN) plot is analyzed according to a model of calculation based on saturation of conduction band current and predominance of valence band current at high-field values. The simulated FN plot exhibits similar features to those observed experimentally. The model of calculation suggests that the slope variation of the FN plot, in the high-field and low-field regions, does not depend on the magnitude of saturation. Instead, it is a characteristic of the energy band structure and voltage-to-barrier-field conversion factor of the emitting material.</p>10afield emission10aFowler-Nordheim plot10aNanostructures10anonlinearity10aZnO1 aAl-Tabbakh, Ahmed, A.1 aMore, Mahendra, A.1 aJoag, Dilip, S.1 aMulla, Imtiaz, S.1 aPillai, Vijayamohanan, K.  uhttps://library.ncl.res.in/content/fowler-nordheim-plot-behavior-and-mechanism-field-electron-emission-zno-tetrapod-0
