A three-dimensional model for thermionic emission from graphene and carbon nanotube
Graphene and carbon nanotube (CNT) have been proposed to be good materials for thermionic energy converter (TEC). For the accurate simulation of the performance of TEC, it is important to know the
correct equation for the temperature dependence of thermionic emission current density (J) from graphene and carbon nanotube. In this paper we first consider the existing theory of electron...
