Abstract: The characteristics of the field electron emission of the iridium tip with different carbon formations on its surface are investigated. It was found that in some cases, compared to metal emitters the carbon-coated emitter exhibits significantly greater emission stability and resistance to residual gases when operating in insufficiently good vacuum conditions.

Keywords: electron emission, carbon, iridium, vacuum, surface.
