title: Controlled synthesis of large-scale, uniform, vertically standing graphene for high-performance field emitters.
abstract: Large-scale, uniform, vertically standing graphene with atomically thin edges are controllably synthesized on copper foil using a microwave-plasma chemical vapor deposition system. A growth mechanism for this system is proposed. This film shows excellent field-emission properties, with low turn-on field of 1.3 V μm(-1) , low threshold field of 3.0 V μm(-1)  and a large field-enhancement factor more than 10 000.
