N2 - The impact of Oxygen (O2) exposure on Silicon Field Emitter Arrays (Si-FEA) was studied. A 50×50 array of Silicon field emitters was tested at 1000V DC anode and 45V DC gate voltage in 6×10-10 Torr before 10-7 Torr partial pressure of O2 was introduced into the chamber. The results indicate that the anode current degradation rate is approximately 0.1 percent per Langmuir of O2 exposure. This study can provide guidelines for the vacuum packaging requirements of Si-FEAs.
