• 100 nanofibers from ten SEM images of each sample. Simultaneously, the element distribution on the sample surface was characterized by a desktop SEM (TM3030, Hitachi LTD.). Electric field simulation Maxwell 3D was used to simulate the electric field distribution of EMAI under different voltages (40

• preparation of the corresponding four FSE devices were studied by simulating the electric field distribution using the Maxwell 3D software. The properties of the electric field in the device are very important for the FSE process. The effects of the particular technique on the morphology and the yield of

• device performs best, providing the highest quality and yield of nanofibers. The SSFE device could yield 20.03 g/h of nanofibers at an applied voltage of 40 kV.
