Abstract
A method for fabricating a nano-sized diamond whisker includes the steps of depositing a diamond film on a substrate, forming a nano-sized mask pattern on the deposited diamond film, and etching the diamond film by using the nano-sized pattern as an etching mask. The nano-sized diamond whisker can be used as a new field emission cold cathode device, thereby advancing a practical use of a field emission device having high performance, and can also be applied to various fields such as a new composite material and a mechanical device.
