纳米金刚石掺混纳米氧化锌的场发射特性

利用水热法制备了菊花状的氧化锌纳米棒,并进行表征,将纳米氧化锌掺入纳米金刚石中配制成电泳液,超声分散后电泳沉积到钛衬底上,再经热处理后进行场发射特性的测试.结果表明:未掺混的金刚石阴极样品的开启电场为7.3V/μm,在20V/μm的电场下,场发射电流密度为81μA/cm2;掺混后阴极样品的场发射开启电场降低到4.7~6.0V/μm,在20V/μm电场下,场发射电流密度提高到140~158μA/cm2.原因是纳米ZnO掺入后,增强了涂层的电子输运能力、增加了有效发射体数目,提高了场增强因子β,而金刚石保证了热处理后涂层与衬底的良好键合,形成了欧姆接触,降低了场发射电流的热效应.场发射电流的稳定性随掺混ZnO量的增加而下降,要兼顾场发射电流密度及其稳定性,适量掺入ZnO可有效提高纳米金刚石的场发射性能.

Enhanced electron field emission characteristics of single-walled carbon nanotube films by ultrasonic bonding

A novel ultrasonic bonding process was used to fabricate the electron field emission cathode of single-walled nanotube film, which was deposited on an Al plate substrate by electrophoretic deposition. Electron field emission properties were improved remarkably after the cathode carbon nanotubes nanobonded with the Al substrate. Turn-on voltage showed a significant decrease and the emission current was much stabilized. This can be attributed to the reduction of the contact resistance in bonding area and easily moving electrons for field emission after ultrasonic bonding. In addition, the field emission performances of SWCNTs films formed at different bonding conditions were also studied. With a simple nano-bonding apparatus, this technique has low cost, and can be utilized for extensively roboticized fabrication of high performance field emission cathodes with short process time.

Efficient field emission from coiled carbon nano/microfiber on copper substrate by dc-PECVD

Crystalline coiled carbon nano/micro fibers in thin film form have been synthesized via direct current plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) on copper substrates with acetylene as a carbon precursor at 10 mbar pressure and 750 °C substrate temperature. The as-prepared samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM). XRD pattern as well as selected area electron diffraction (SAED) pattern showed that the samples were crystalline in nature. SEM and HRTEM studies showed that as synthesized coiled carbon fibers are having average diameter ∼100 nm and are several micrometers in length. The as-prepared samples showed moderately good electron field emission properties with a turn-on field as low as 1.96 V/μm for an inter-electrode distance 220 μm. The variation of field emission properties with inter-electrode distance has been studied in detail. The field emission properties of the coiled carbon fibrous thin films are compared with that of crystalline multiwalled carbon nanotubes and other carbon nanostructures.     

Synthesis of single-walled carbon nanotubes in mesoporous silica film and their field emission property

We have succeeded in direct synthesis of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) on a conductive substrate coated with a 3D mesoporous silica film, and observed the field emission. Co catalysts for the growth of SWNTs are deposited on the substrate by electroplating. The particle size of the catalyst is well-controlled inside defined space of the mesoporous silica film. Furthermore, the location of Co particles can be controlled in the mesopores by the electroplating method. Mono-dispersed SWNTs are grown along with the mesopores that are normal to the substrate, because Co particles are deposited at the bottom of the mesopores. It is also found that the mesoporous silica film prevents the aggregation of Co catalysts and the distortion of Au layer as the conductive substrate. The field emission measurement shows that the turn-on field is 4.2 V/μm at 10 μA/cm². The field enhancement factor is about 1500. This approach provides an efficient methodology for fabricating an SWNTs-based field emitters. PACS 73.63.Fg; 78.55.Mb     

Electric field aligned growth of single-walled carbon nanotubes

Electric field aligned, single-walled carbon nanotubes are grown between electrodes using thermal chemical vapour deposition (CVD) of methane. The growth occurs on a thin film layered catalyst of aluminium, iron and molybdenum patterned on top of electrodes. The nanotubes bridge 10 μm sized electrode gaps and have a typical diameter of less than 2 nm as measured by Raman spectroscopy and atomic force microscopy. We present electrical transport measurements on a directly grown nanotube which shows p-type semiconducting behaviour.     

Field emission properties of DLC and phosphorus-doped DLC films prepared by electrochemical deposition process

Field emission behavior of diamond-like carbon (DLC) and phosphorus-doped DLC (p-DLC) films prepared by electrochemical deposition process was comparatively investigated. It was shown phosphorus incorporation in the DLC film could lower the turn on field from 12 to 9.5 V/μm and increase the current density from 12.6 to 45.7 μA/mm² under high electric field. And better field emission performance of p-DLC films would be mainly attributed to the influence of the surface morphology and the changes of microstructure due to the phosphorus incorporation.     

硅掺杂铝镓氮薄膜场发射性能研究

利用脉冲激光沉积,分别制备了一系列不同Si掺杂浓度的铝镓氮(AlGaN)薄膜.对此薄膜进行场致电子发射测试表明,Si掺杂浓度为1％的AlGaN薄膜具有最好的场发射特性.相对于非掺杂样品,其场发射电流明显增加,场发射开启电场显著降低.掺杂带来载流子浓度的提升,为场发射提供足够的电子源,使样品的场发射性能提升.但掺杂浓度的进一步提高,薄膜缺陷增加,电子迁移率降低,其薄膜内部电子输运能力降低大于电子浓度的增加对场电子发射的贡献,导致场发射性能开始变差.     

Effect of temperature on the electron field emission from aligned carbon nanofibers and multiwalled carbon nanotubes

Effect of temperature and aspect ratio on the field emission properties of vertically aligned carbon nanofiber and multiwalled carbon nanotube thin films were studied in detail. Carbon nanofibers and multiwalled carbon nanotube have been synthesized on Si substrates via direct current plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition technique. Surface morphologies of the films have been studied by a scanning electron microscope, transmission electron microscope and an atomic force microscope. It is found that the threshold field and the emission current density are dependent on the ambient temperature as well as on the aspect ratio of the carbon nanostructure. The threshold field for carbon nanofibers was found to decrease from 5.1 to 2.6 V/μm when the temperature was raised from 300 to 650 K, whereas for MWCNTs it was found to decrease from 4.0 to 1.4 V/μm. This dependence was due to the change in work function of the nanofibers and nanotubes with temperature. The field enhancement factor, current density and the dependence of the effective work function with temperature and with aspect ratio were calculated and we have tried to explain the emission mechanism.
