Abstract
A substrate predesposition treatment process is used to pattern and en hance the emission properties of diamond flat cathode films. An advant age of this process is that the diamond grit abrasive process steps ar e not required for the enhanced emission properties. The predespositio n treatment also eliminates the possibility of degrading cathode perfo rmance resulting from postgrowth processes.
